Tesla Software updates - Australia
- Thread starter Grenadine
- Start date
For those non Ryzen vehicles, looks like the Spring update is coming to your vehicles now via 14.6 (minus the park screen visualisation)
Will be interested to see how Tesla Vision park assist looks if anyone here gets it on an Intel system

Kangaroos are a thing now!
While avoiding kangaroos on the road last night, I happened to look down at the visualisation and for the first time (must be part of the new visualisation in 14.3), they are actually displayed on the screen now.
Well, they don't look like kangaroos, of course. They have 4 legs and walk like dogs. They kind of look like dogs too. Or small deer. They seem to have long legs. Couldn't tell if it was trying to display a large dog or a small deer. I didn't get time to take a photo unfortunately, they hopped away (according to the screen they ran away).
Anyway, that now gives me hope that the car may actually try to avoid one if on Autopilot. Of course, I never use autopilot on that road, but it's comforting that it is actually recognising them as animals, so may do something useful (like stop) if it sees one ahead. Up until now I have just assumed it would ignore them and just plough straight through them like it does with potholes.
Looks like dogs, deer and cats are already in AP visualisations.. surely they can add roo's. This video made me laugh..
I also noticed last week for the first time that bicycle lane icons are also visualized in the road markings along with turn arrows. Maybe it’s been there for a while and I only just noticed it.
2024.14.6 now going out to AU users, seems to be primarily cars with Intel Atom chip. It’s also being sent out to 2024.3.25 users in NA(FSD branch)
Only major change from 2024.14.3 seems to be Tesla Vision Park Assist for cars with USS AND AMD Ryzen chip

And yet in the US Intel Atom FSD cars are getting the new full screen visuals, so there is hope for a future update.
In the US Hertz rental Teslas display a special QR code that lets you temporarily set up phone key for the duration of your rental.

Sixt does not appear to currently offer that option here in Australia.
Did anyone else notice a reduction in power consumption by sentry mode after 2024.14.3?
Yesterday sentry was on for the 13 hours I parked at the train station and only 4% was consumed (60kwh battery). Today was 5% for 15 hours. I recall it used to be about 1.5-2 times this consumption.

2024.14.6 on Model S: Initial wrap up:
- Loads more traffic/pedestrians visualised on the dash display.
- The only new visualisation I can see on the MCU display is the trip progress/traffic line.
- There is NO speed camera chime option anywhere in the menus.
- Parking/reversing display is exactly the same still. Neither synthetic nor camera based surround top-down view.
- NoA is now crippled, requiring AP stalk pull or manual indicator activation to confirm lane change. Previously confirmation was with a slight pull/push on the steering wheel where the hand already rested, so kind of acceptable. This change is a massive feature degradation.
- There are 3 AP disconnects "due to improper use" credited until the feature is disabled. And it tells you how many you have had (0 in my case, so it forgot the one from a couple of months ago).
- Car still detects 40 speed limit on adjoining lane as applicable to the lane it is in, when it is not applicable
- Car still shows lane open indicators on bridge as traffic lights. Hasn't tried to stop at one yet, but that's unchanged behaviour, it happened randomly even before.
All up, nothing exciting - if not a downgrade - despite being the first v12 release on my car.

Has anyone ever figured out what the "Power Off" button is for under the "Security" menu? On the face of it, one would assume this shuts everything down and puts the car into a minimum power consumption mode, and it seems to do so, turning off the displays and AC immediately when pressed.
Of course one has to leave the car after having pressed that button. And when the door opens, all displays, lights, and AC turn back on.
So... what is this feature meant to do?

That's interesting. I hadn't heard of that one. I'm still on 2024.14.3, but I don't use the lane change confirmation function, I just let it go for it (or cancel the indicator with the stalk if/when I don't want it to change lanes). I'm doing a couple of hundred km today on highways so if I think of it I'll have a look at the confirmation option and see if it's also changed in my version.

I went for a drive at 0930 this morning and the outside-air-temperature on the display was stuck on -5C for the initial 15 minutes of the drive. It may have got that cold here last night (there was ice on the ICE windscreen (pun intended), although not on the Tesla due to automated preconditioning, gotta love it) - although I doubt it really got that cold. Maybe -1C or -2C I would believe.
After 15 minutes, the temperature rapidly stepped up to what the real OAT now was, about +9C.
