All Activity

Approach this information with scepticism. In my 2023 Model 3, equipped with a stalk, I have configured it to activate TACC with a single pull. Subsequently, a double pull for AP; I lack FSD. An option exists to modify it to a single pull to access AP. I personally prefer not to, as there are instances when TACC is more advantageous for me. The road is excessively winding for my preference, or for any other reason. However, if you possess FSD, I am uncertain how that would alter the single pull for TACC and the double pull for FSD.

I possess only TACC and Autopilot, not FSD. Prior to November 2024, I possessed a 2018 Model 3, which featured the same setting; I conducted a test to determine if the scroll wheel models also include that setting. The Autopilot manual similarly stipulates this information:

This is due to your lack of a stalk. Vehicles equipped with stalks lost the functionality to toggle between TACC and FSD following the update 2023.44.30.x. Vehicles lacking stalks, such as yours, can utilise the scroll button as you indicated. If there has been a modification allowing an individual with a stalk to transition effortlessly between TACC and FSD without halting the vehicle or altering the mode, or establishing a separate driver profile, that would be valuable information. One would assume Tesla would provide an option for vehicles equipped with stalks to utilise the button, but to my knowledge, they have not. The battery replacement was successful. The replacement was installed, and the alert has disappeared. Avoid tampering with the service menus.

I conducted some testing on your behalf! I now possess a 2024 Model 3 including scroll wheel activation for Autopilot/TACC, without FSD, and equipped with the latest software. The Autopilot settings tab offers an activation choice for "Single Click" or "Double Click," analogous to Single Pull/Double Pull on the stalk. In "Single Click" mode, only Autopilot is engaged, necessitating a modification in settings to activate Traffic-Aware Cruise. In "Double Click" mode, the initial click engages Traffic-Aware Cruise, while the subsequent click enables Autopilot. The distinction is audible, since TACC produces a singular bong sound, but AP emits a dual-tone startup sound.

Indeed I have not modified it since 2023, allowing me to utilise either TACC or FSD with one or two pulls. When I am in FSD and encounter a pothole, I can disengage FSD, causing the vehicle to revert to TACC. Was it reinstated? I possess an outdated 2018 Model 3 and doubt that the forthcoming improvements will offer any significant enhancements for me.

I apologise for my lack of knowledge, but have you not updated your software since 2023? What do you mean by not wanting to forfeit your double/single pull for EAP/FSD? Currently, in my 2023 Model 3. The initial draw activates cruise control, while the subsequent pull engages adaptive cruise control (AP). I have the choice in the menu to direct a single draw to AP, but I want the capability to use CC.

The Tesla technician who performed my last service in 2022 replaced it in the parking lot without any software involvement. He detached the PCS connection beneath the rear seat, disconnected the battery, substituted it, and thereafter reconnected the PCS.

The most recent versions feature a Learn New Battery option and the capability to switch between various battery kinds. However, I am merely exchanging the same type, so I believe I should be fine.

I will deactivate the power, unhook the high voltage, and replace the battery. The updated edition of the service manual has several warnings.

Replacing the low-voltage battery does not necessitate a firmware update. It may be included in the Service Centre estimate as a favour on occasion. If you choose not to wait for the software update, they can initiate the download, allowing you to install it upon your return home.

I possess a 2018 vehicle equipped with a failing Atlas LV battery. I visited the service centre, and they provided me with a new AtlasBX. The existing service notes recommend updating to version 2023.32 and performing certain actions in the service menu; however, I am still on version 2023.27.12. I am enquiring if anyone has successfully replaced the battery without adhering to the firmware update specified in the instructions. A previous procedure must have occurred; the service menus appear to differ from the current instructions. I wish to refrain from updating the firmware to avoid losing the double/single pull functionality for EAP/FSD. The majority of YouTube videos do not demonstrate individuals using the service menu.

All is normal. Mine was new in March 1937, first decreasing to the high 20s. Summer exceeded the quoted figure by 38. I have reduced my consumption to 26, but by turning off the heating and driving steadily, I can achieve 6 miles for every 2 indicated on the display. My former Mercedes achieved a consistent 50 miles per gallon in summer, but might decline to as low as 12 miles per gallon in winter.

In EV mode, do you operate at modest speeds or fast speeds with vigorous acceleration? I have observed that operating in EV mode at modest speeds and avoiding abrupt acceleration significantly enhances range predictions, especially during winter conditions.

Reduce the temperature slightly and decrease your speed. You should, therefore, be capable of obtaining 34.

The cold is the cause. The specified range is merely an approximation as well. Utilising the trip meter may yield results that deviate from the quoted figure. The heater/climate system significantly consumes electrical energy to regulate cabin temperature in cold conditions.

My vehicle is aged, however I am achieving the same range in cooler conditions. This applies to all electric vehicles, yet it is not widely recognised that the reduction in range during winter is substantial. As temperatures rise, the elevated range will reemerge. Infrequent use of the petrol engine during winter months often results in the formation of 'mayonnaise' within the oil filler cap. I suggest monitoring it and maintaining regular cleanliness. The issue arises from condensation and insufficient engine operation to eliminate it. Particularly in winter, I advise operating the petrol engine to ensure oil circulation and generate warmth within the engine. Conversely, if the petrol engine is compelled to engage at elevated RPMs while cold, it may be detrimental to its condition. Particularly if all the oil remains in the sump. Excellent vehicles, although one must adapt to the technology and acknowledge that it is not a fully electric vehicle. I contend that the petrol engine in a hybrid vehicle should have the oil pump operating continuously, even when the engine is inactive, and that some heat should be introduced into the cooling system to ensure readiness for operation. I frequently contemplate the state of the petrol engine in plug-in hybrids that predominantly operate on electricity. These vehicles are not fully electric and should not be operated as such.

Hello, I possess a P270e hybrid vehicle. Does anyone have a problem with the mileage at 100% charge? I was informed that I would achieve 36 miles, although I am now attaining a maximum of 26 miles. Based on my prior experience with electric vehicles, I am aware that battery life diminishes in winter; nonetheless, I did not anticipate a reduction of almost 30%.

The primary issue with my engine is the fuel injectors. Subsequent to their replacement, reset all adaptations, including the lambda settings. The optimal tool for that purpose is INPA or ISTA. Best of luck.

Pleasant. Congratulations.

Brother Acquire an OBD cable and download BMW Standard Tools to assess the injectors. The payment will be 25 euros, and you will be completely assured. BMW Tools has a user-friendly program named INPA, which can be navigated with the assistance of an AI; simply enquire for guidance. It conserved significant financial resources, time, and visits to the mechanic.

Scoundrels, I already have a ghost installed, but my location is quite safe anyway. I believe I could tolerate 1500 if I were assured it would alleviate all problems and incur no more expenses for around two years. However, I am ambivalent on whether the issue pertains to the injectors in my vehicle.
