    Tesla Nav vs Waze in Toronto: Opinions wanted please!

    Hi all, I'm thinking about getting a Model 3 SR+. Can people from Toronto please share their experiences with Tesla Nav vs Waze? It really concerns me that the SR+ maps don't show live traffic data (I like to be able to see it because sometimes I will take alternate routes based on the red and...

    Tap on POI doesn’t work?

    The manual says that if you drop the pin or touch an existing pin on the map you can see info about the place, the phone number and working hours. When I tap on the existing POI pins, it doesn’t show anything. If I drop the pin on top of the existing POI, it will sometimes show working hours...

    Nav Voice level setting not being stored for me

    M3 LR AWD 4500mi EAP FSD 9019.20.1 The issue for me is that the volume level of the navigation voice is not being stored. It generally goes to lowest level, somehow, even though I try to store it in my profile at the level that I "enjoy". Also since no "number value" (like 1-10) shows up, no...

    Lost Saved Locations

    I've had my Model 3 for over a year, and the other day I hit "Navigate" then "Work" as I normally do, and it prompted me for my work address. My work address had been stored successfully for over a year, and now it was gone. Same goes for Home and Favorites (there was also no recent location...

    Church Street Church Street

    Whenever navigation has directed me to a street called “Church Street”, the voice direction will read the direction as “Church Street Church Street”, such as “Turn right on Church Street Church Street”. This is not a local problem, as this exact same behavior has occurred in three different...

    Navigation w/FSD in LA -- 110 FastTrak?

    Hi LA Tesla drivers, Curious if anyone has used FSD with navigation between the South Bay and Downtown -- will the HOV setting put the car in the FastTrak lane? Or is there a separate setting to accomplish this? The ramp is probably 2 miles from Tesla's location in Hawthorne - hard to imagine...

    Report Navigation Errors?

    There's a major freeway exit near me (Houston) that is mislabeled in the Tesla map. The same exit is properly labeled Google Maps. Is there somewhere to report these types of errors?

    Map Editing and Forcing a Refresh?

    My neighborhood is very new. When I got my Model 3 in February it didn't know most of the roads near my house. I realized quickly that the maps come from Google, so I added all of the nearby streets to Google maps. Side Note: To do this for yourself Go to maps.google.com in a browser Make sure...

Even the map in the smaller screen is stuck as well. I've tried deleting destinations and even chose a destination in my history but the map just...

    Audio Controls While Navigating

    While listening to radio this AM while also navigating, I noticed that when the navigation lady is giving verbal instructions, the radio is not muted. Hence, much of the time, neither source is intelligible. Couple of questions: 1. Is the nav lady's volume independently controlled? (It...

    Newbie navigation question

    I’m on the cusp of ordering a Model S. Not pushed the button yet but probably will shortly. You folks might be sick of this but on the various similar threads there's a handful of points I’m not sure I have an answer to… My main one is on navigation – I read that the Tesla system runs on an...

    Map Updates for Road Closures

    I was stuck in a backup for some hours last night in the mountains of North Carolina when a rock slide closed the highway. After they eventually got us out of the backup I then needed to reroute to reach my destination and might need an intermediate charge. The in car navigator could not help...

    Swap Navigation on the HUD from left to right side

    Is is possible to swap the navigation on the driver HUD from the left side to the right side? (Model S 2013) I drive with my left hand on the top of wheel and it blocks the street level view of the navigation, so I have to change how I drive to see where Im going or I have to look over at the...

    Rear view camera - v9.0

    I like to keep the rear view camera always on the top half of my screen when driving. It seems like this is no longer allowed with v9.0. I can’t seem to get anything but the map on the top portion of the screen. Has anyone figured out to have something other than the map on the upper...

    Discrepancy in Google navigation compared to phone

    Hi all, do you also observe navi (old Google one, firmware 32.4, EU if it matters) planning "crazy routes (i.e 2.5 hours instead of 2 hours, navigating on pedestrian/bicycle paths, jumping out of tunnel to surface road...)? What's interesting is that Google navi on Android phone doesn't (and...

    Navigation has problems with urban Superchargers?

    Yesterday, we were heading home from a visit with relatives southwest of Portland, OR, and I decided to try the Tigard Supercharger for a boost. I had seen it show up on the drive down from Seattle as a supercharger, but when I tried to find it for the trip home, it didn't show up on the map...

    Non-ADA Compliant Traffic Information

    The other day I had someone new to Teslas in my Model S and he didn't even know what I was talking about when I said I was surprised the car didn't reroute to avoid the traffic we were going through. So of course I pointed out the huge red line we were driving through and the completely green...

    Navigation newb question re:supercharging stops

    When navigating a route with the planned supercharger stops.. say you're chillin' n chargin'; does it alert you when you've hit the planned time for the stop and are good to proceed to the next? Or just keep rolling to full charge merrily?

    Model 3 Route Selection Mode?

    My wife just picked up her M3 and loves it. One issue that's come up is the apparent absence in the nav system of a way to set route preferences. She doesn't like to take expressways unless she absolutely has to. Yet it seems that the system always lays out the fastest route possible, accounting...

    Trip/Route Planning Software/Apps - Thoughts?

    New to the Tesla world and was wondering people's thoughts, recommendations, etc. on the different trip/route planning options out there. So far, I'm aware of ABetterRoutePlanner.com on the web, the EVTO app on my iPhone, and the Nav/Maps that come standard on my S. I also see a bunch of other...

    Maps Traffic Not Exactly Working

    I recently updated to 2018.21.9. I have noticed that when displaying the traffic overlay onto the map/navigation, it quite often shows green and not much traffic. I am in SoCal. It is actually misleading because only when I pinch and zoom in then all of a sudden most of the freeway traffic...

    Video review of the new navigation system

    As I got the opportunity to test the brand new navigation system on one of the first cars in Belgium to receive the update (yes, I know, you guys in the US think it's old news already ;-) ), I took the chance to do a video review on it. Overall I like it a lot and it's a lot better than the old...

    New Nav trip planner behavior

    I just got the new nav last week and was testing the routing by plugging in a few road trip destination I had in the past. To my surprise, it seems that the new nav is more aggressive on the buffer charge and prefer taking longer but less frequent charging stops. e.g. for a route from Atlanta...

    Recent map update on the Model 3?

    I currently have 2018 12.1 firmware. FYI. I have a 20 mile section of my commute where AP 2 has no speed limit data. AP1 does fine on this section since it can read signs. So I have been tracking AP2 on this section to see when we will get sign reading capability. I checked after the...

    Suggestions for GPS

    Update 2018.12 -- So where's the Navigation Update?

    Elon tweeted that the much-awaited nav update would be coming out "this weekend." That was two weeks ago, so when I was notified that a new update was ready, I ran down and told Angel to update immediately. She did. The result? I found that I can now remotely open my frunk. Swell. No nav update...

    "Hidden" features in the Tesla navigation

    It seems that not a lot of people know how you can use the navigation outside of the standard address entering of naming a specific place via the voice commands. In this video, I show you can do much more with it and the so often asked POI search can already be done as well. Suits my needs...

    Question about the upcoming new vector map, which model will get it?

    Question for non-Nav folks re Supercharger range

    For the folks who don't have turn by turn navigation in their Model S can you: 1. Select a destination and at least get information about which superchargers are on the way and how much charge you'll have when you arrive? Or. 2. Directly input a supercharger that you know is on your route and...

I’ve tried rebooting but that didn’t work. Any tricks or thoughts on how to get the navigation to...

    Turn-based Map Zooming

    Model S and Model X cars currently have four different zoom/pan modes for navigation. There's north-up, direction-up, leg-zoom (when superchargers are in the mix), and trip-zoom. Months ago I saw an Electrek article showing an upcoming maps feature, which (I feel) mostly provides benefit by...

    Did vector mapping just got released?

    This morning, driving to work, I noticed that the map zoomed in after I left the freeway without me giving any input. Driving home, it did the same. Zooming in when not on the freeway and zooming out when on the freeway without any route planned. I looked closer at the map and it seem quite...
