    Should i receive phone notifications from sentry?

    When I have sentry mode enabled in the car and there is an event, should I receive a notification notice on the phone? Version 11.1 2024.3.25, I think is the software version.

    What car settings are needed for using SuperChargers?

    Interesting idea I had not read about elsewhere yet. Although maybe it was important for it to slow down and stopping it prematurely causes some negative effects.

    What car settings are needed for using SuperChargers?

    Yes, I did try one. It appeared to work fine, but I wasn't sure if I should have done anything in the settings. Good to know it was fine.

    What car settings are needed for using SuperChargers?

    They have it, so thanks.

    What car settings are needed for using SuperChargers?

    I have only used a supercharger once so far and I'm not sure I was doing the right thing. At home, I use the wall connector. I have it set up on a 60 amp breaker and set the car setting for 48 amp. Do I need to change that setting when using a supercharger? And if so, what should I change it...

    Does FSD apply brake when stopped?

    When I am driving and stop at a light, I see the speed go down to 0 and then it switches to "Hold". But, when stopping at the same light during FSD, I see the speed go down to 0 and then it does NOT go into "Hold" mode. Is the car actually in "Hold" mode and it is just not showing it? If it...

    Maintenance reminders?

    My slc300 benz has maintenance reminders that display when due. Does MS have any? I haven't read anything about that.

    Car Wash incident

    I should have looked under, but don't specifically remember anything. If I saw one of the cars on a lift, I never noticed anything horrible.

    Mirrors and car wash mode

    I just did my first manual car wash after setting car wash mode. I didn't experiment with it, but the mirrors were not folded. I would think that would be a must. Is it supposed to fold them or is it expected that driver would do that manually?

    Car Wash incident

    Fwiw, I haven't washed a car in a car wash in winter ever. And I live in the Buffalo area (since 1975). Never had a car have a problem because of that. Just sold the 2013 fusion hybrid after getting the MY and it looked practically like new inside and out.

    Any recommendation for wheel cover replacements?

    I have 2024 MS. My wife HATES the black wheel covers (I don't think they look great either). Are there any recommended replacement covers that work with the 19" Tempest wheels that are either some sort of light gray or silver/chromy?

    Where are the new fsd versions?

    Thanks for the elaborate description of programming, however, I wrote my first program in 1966 in a Physics class when the professor said "Here is a Schroedinger wave equation and here are the boundary conditions so go solve it on a computer." So we all learned Fortran and ran punch cards...

    Where are the new fsd versions?

    I'm going to have to search the web for how the heck these update numbers work. I JUST got the 2024 MS in March. I think that is a "newer Model S/X". And yet, my Release Notes show 2024.3.25 with FSD v12.3.6. How are people getting up to 2024.14.3 or 2024.8.x? Were there a bunch of updates...

    Where are the new fsd versions?

    I just got it last night. Disappointed that it didn't include the hatch opening triggered by phone. Does MS normally eventually get what the other models do?

    Where are the new fsd versions?

    My car is 2024 MS. 2024.3.15. What is AP 4? From Teslafi, as near as I can figure out, I am AP 4.

    Where are the new fsd versions?

    I have the trial. I quickly got 2 updates. But where is the 12.3.5 I think I've seen people talking about?

    Tesla FSD Subscription Now $99/Month | Tesla Motors Club Podcast #62

    My car saw a sign for I think county road 60 and tried to do that speed speed in a 25 mph area.

    Daytime running lights

    No turning them out again left nothing illuminating the wall in front of the car. Sure seems like they need an explanation of the expected behavior in the manual.

    Daytime running lights

    I guess I will have to wait for a sunny day to be sure. After I turn the lights OFF, as soon as I put it in drive, the lights go on and when I check the lights setting, it changed to Auto. I'm not sure if those lights are the DRL. I think they are probably going on now because it is dark and...

    Daytime running lights

    I'll have to do that test. Thanks. So is there no dash indicator of DRL? Nothing on the little car icon either?

    Daytime running lights

    Does my 2024 MS have daytime running lights? If so, how can I tell if they are on?

    Model S Door lights Mod

    Too bad there isn't a solution. My 2024 MS has round lights. I thought having the Tesla logo would be cute. You would think a $90,000+ car would have an easy "flashy" thing like this. Well, I would anyway.

    Tesla S 2016 Passenger Door handle no power

    What exactly did you do? Just going to service mode? Did you do the part about the battery or was that unnecessary? I'm starting to have trouble with a door handle (1 week old new car) and might have to do whatever you did, too. Thanks.

    Auto park/summon

    I can verify that on my 2024 Model S with only cameras and the trial version of fsd, the autopark IS working. And quite well so far.
  27. mtiede

    Should car be sending CURL messages?

    I agree also. But a low chance is still a chance, so I was hoping someone else had actually observed this curl traffic from the Tesla. I had some possible hacking of an attached storage device through a new router and so I am trying to be extra cautious. If anyone has watched and verified...

    Auto park/summon

    I think you have to drive slowly. Pretty sure I read somewhere that you have to go 7 mph or slower.

    When will trial start rolling out?

    My Samsung Galaxy S10 Tesla app does not have summon. Where is that exactly? I poked around, but couldn't see it. My 20224 Model S got the FSD successfully already.

    LockChime.wav stopped working

    Did something happen with custom lock file sounds? I created a LockChime.wav file and had it working. It stopped working, I'm guessing, when I got the update that included the free FSD. Anybody else have this problem? I took the SSD drive out of the car and plugged it into my computer and I...

    Should car be sending CURL messages?

    Thanks, Docal. I'm a long time programmer (first program written in 1966) and so I knew what curl was and how it is used and that it was going to an Akamai address. What I wasn't sure of was whether that is normal for the Tesla to send it. I was hoping someone could say something like, "Yes...

    Should car be sending CURL messages?

    My router threat prevention gave this message: curl User-Agent Outbound being sent to: 23.55.200.211 And the sending text was: HEAD./.HTTP/1.1. 00000010 0a 48 6f 73 74 3a 20 32 33 2e 35 35 2e 32 30 30 .Host:.23.55.200 00000020 2e 32 31 31 0d 0a 55 73 65 72 2d 41 67 65 6e 74...

    Protective film on dash

    There is protective film over display and console and I removed them. Is there a film over the area above the glovebox? I see a sticker on that area behind the display that looks like it shouldn't be visible. Is that on a film?

    Whatever happened to the front bumper camera and ambient lighting?

    Who told you when it was built? Or is there a way to find out online?

    Whatever happened to the front bumper camera and ambient lighting?

    I'm supposed to take delivery of Model S between March 18 - 25. Think I will be getting these new lights and camera? Or was my car probably made in February?

    Stalk or no stalk argument [not] settled

    Yeah, I don't feel comfortable using even the STALK in a roundabout. I usually don't signal when leaving the roundabout. I'm busy making sure I don't hit any curbs on the way and there isn't anyone in the roundabout that doesn't understand how they work. (in US more roundabouts are being...

    Tribal excise tax

    fwiw, Tesla says the normal tax is just split with the reservation.

    Tribal excise tax

    Also, I wonder if by picking it up in Oneida territory implies anything about any New York taxes or tax breaks that might be available to Mt. Kisco pickup, for instance.

    Tribal excise tax

    I just saw that there is a Oneida excise tax of $3,000+ when picking up car there. Didn't know about that ahead of time before planning to pick up car at Oneida. Is there an excise tax on all teslas?

    Is it okay to use ice scrapers?

    Doh! I just noticed that that warning was in the "Interior Glass" section. I shouldn't skim the huge manual so fast. :)

    Is it okay to use ice scrapers?

    I'm reading the manual and it says: "Do not scrape, or use any abrasive cleaning fluid on glass or mirrored surfaces. This can damage the reflective surface of the mirror and the heating elements in the rear window". Are they talking about INTERIOR of rear window? Or are they saying not to use...

    Does Model S come with key fobs?

    I HOPE they are ADDING UWB. My phone doesn't have it and I'd like to have my phone unlock the car on proximity. I don't want to lose the features I have in the phone now in order to use it with the car.

    General questions about ordering in NY

    Yikes! On reading further down in the article, it said a zero emissions vehicle is subject to a $10,000 annual fee in NY. How does that work? Has anyone actually paid that?

    Does Model S come with key fobs?

    I JUST finished ordering the Model S. Does it come with any key fobs? After the order, I was presented with the choice to add some accessories and the key fob was there. Don't I automatically get a couple of fobs? Also, I looked at the sunshade for the glass roof and the picture didn't look...
