Tesla Model 3 - V3.0

Well I never used Disney in the car and it's still there!

it works, thanks

Looks like a couple of days delay on MY3 Highland deliveries to Ireland given that it now appears that Titus will not go through Suez given the escalation of attacks on shipping and will now transit around the Cape.

Titus left Singapore today so another month on the seas before she gets to Zebrugge to offload cars for Ireland.

Anyone expecting VIN's anytime soon should expect a delay before they are issued.

Had an interesting situation yesterday. I got my first 'strike' with the new 'Autopilot suspension' after the latest update. Apparently I have 4 left.

I do a lot of motorway driving and Autopilot has become hugely important for me as it seriously reduces driving fatigue. I use it properly (i.e. hands on the wheels) and have never received multiple warnings in short time periods. I would periodically get them because I don't like to move the wheel too much when Autopilot is engaged at high speed eg 120kmh.

But heading westward on the M4/M6 yesterday the car was getting buffeted heading into in the strong and gusting winds. Autopilot was handling the drive better than I could, but when I went to move the wheel for driver alert detection, even small movements were being exaggerated by the wind, causing the car to swerve slightly at high speed.

To counter this, my movements were being kept small as possible and as a result I kept getting warnings until I received a suspension. At the next break this popped up on my screen.

No idea either how long a strike lasts for. It does say the remainder of the trip but there are no further specifics. i.e. do you get less chances in the next trip if you have had them in the previous one? I'll do some googly of the interwebs and find out later.

Either way, I feel this latest update has certainly made Autopilot more sensitive than necessary given I have safely used this feature for 3 years.

This is getting very nannyish now. Haven't driven the car since the last update yet and this morning there was another update to .44.30.5.1. Hope they have figured out that the sensitivity was too much and have/will fix it soon.

That's bonkers if the alert is tracking your face for any movement away from the road.

I've always had my internal camera covered as I don't like the thought of my kids being recorded.

I bought one of these webcam covers off Amazon not long after I got the car and never had any issues or notifications about it being covered.

They pulled the update from my M3 after I downloaded 95% of it. Probably they figured it has some bugs.

AP is a driver assistant, so surely it turning into more of a nanny is simply Tesla being forced to have to work like it should have all along?

Being able to cover the camera is in the news this week as a reason the US authorities won’t accept the recent s/w update Tesla did for the 2m vehicle ‘recall’, so that’s unlikely to be something that will be allowed for long.

Other manufacturers have caught up I suppose and when the entire SC network opens here then it will have lost it's usp.

I've been driving a Byd Atto 3 recently and it's autosteer and cruise control is far better than Tesla's. Automatically reengages autosteer when you change lane. Horrible interior though and I'm always happy to get back in my M3.

What I don't get is what's so different about autopilot that Tesla are being forced to do this?

It was a response to the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s (NHTSA) directive following an investigation

That was a good video.

The wipers update is welcomed (to turn off for AP). But still sounds like the auto-wiper still doesnt work well.

The front of the new M3 is seriously ugly. Love the rear, I've always been an ass man though.
