Very well done with very good info on the car, thanks!!

@marisamcginnis5059 6 ай бұрын

I like to see the miles instead of the percentages. Thank you for your videos, I always learn something important. I have a red Model Y. My favorite features are the superb navigation and “dog mode.”

Great point!

I like percentage because range can change quite a bit depending on how I drive and where I drive

Careful with the blue light filter, it shifts to reddish color which can get your brain signals to relax. this is not good when driving as if you are tired, it will induce more brainwaves to look for sleeping time. you are better using regular colors.

Great video. I don't have the ability to change the regen setting in our model 3 or Y. Wondering why you have that option. In the winter on icy roads I'd like to reduce regen since it sometimes gets squirmy when letting off the gas.

I like having my MS set on "Percent" rather than "Distance", it logically follows what is displayed on my cell phone, plus, for some reason when it's set on "Distance" I start having range anxiety when the amount of miles available get's to low... BTW> In the MS, touching the "Percent" or "Miles" symbol on the display does absolutely nothing! To overcome this I had to create an additional driver profile, I called it "miles" and made all the setting look similar to my current profile with the exception of changing the "Percentage" to "Distance" under the "Display Tab" so now whenever I want to change between Percent and Miles I just switch profiles.

Do you have an idea why I don’t have the option to change distance for regon breaking in my MY? Is it because you have the summon upgrade? Or maybe it’s an America/Europe thing?

There is a turn signal camera window but no blind spot notification as I am aware of on the standard AP, or on EAP. Please explain if AP has a notification on blind spot intrusion. I believe the new “Highland” M3 will have a red light on the “A” pillar

Percentage for sure. Reason being it’s easier to know 20% & 80% (or 90%).

@rpelleti 6 ай бұрын

Miles vs. Percent - I prefer percent from 100 down to 50%. After that, I tap the percent on my Model 3 screen to switch to miles. I just feel better that way. I know that I only drive a certain number of miles to go to work and base that distance on everywhere else I go, so when the battery gets below 50%, I like to know how many trips to work I have left before I have to recharge at home.

I paid for advance auto pilot, still don't have smart summon and summon and auto park in Canada

@JpsBookOfLife 4 ай бұрын

If you have a newer model Tesla with Tesla Vision then you won’t have auto parking/summon. The older models used radar sensors. Tesla has mentioned they are currently working on the software. They should’ve had the software ready before physically altering the car but I digress.

Why's it so hard for Tesla to display both % and range (Kms or miles)

@paveltolkunov9549 6 ай бұрын

Also, although it is recommended to charge to 80% it could be nice if videos showed miles (when 100% charged). At least occasionally.

I don't know about the blue light fatigue stuff. Blue light being shorter wavelengths is sharper and easier to focus than the other colors. I think someone maybe confused the glare of an overcast sky with its color temperature 20,000 to 40,000° K . Sunlight is 5500°K, and most interior lighting is now about 3000°K. (I always buy the °K LEDs) My eyes are always more relaxed when they can quickly and easily focus on whatever I'm looking at. What annoys me about all of this are all the settings there is no option for. Such as more separation for the blinking Green turn signal indicators. No one can tell at a glance which one the car has turned on. They're too close together and there's no reference. Over the past couple of years in auto pilot or FSD, when the sun is low and in front of me, the wipers will not turn off. (Deposited vinyl oils deposited on the inside of the camera window. I park outside in California so my car can get very hot. If this hasn't happened to your Tesla, over time it will. It would be an easy fix if we could get inside there to clean it.) There is no way to turn them off. You have to disable autopilot or FSD. Service apologized, they've been getting complaints for years on this and Tesla won't fix it. The simplest fix? Access to clean inside the camera box. Or an Off option that lasts for a period of time, like 30 minutes, but with the option that if does significantly change like mud or rain they can turn back on. But just turning on every 6 seconds is like the most annoying kid you ever knew poking you in the arm every six seconds. I've had passengers demand I turn turn them off. Range is better, but it's always going to be incorrect. They could.... but percentage, and percentage at destination is good enough. I was in Arizona crossing the Navaho (Dene) Nation and wasn't going to make it to the Supercharger in Holbrook. So I turned off AC, slowed down to 50, It then showed plenty of range at destination. Worked really well. You know if after you charge up if there's no one waiting to charge you can just take out the plug, climb in the back and spend a comfortable night in Camp Mode.... That's what I did. No one notices a Tesla at or near a Supercharger.... Climate control is silly. "Put your finger over the temperature and then very slightly slide your finger to change the temperature you cannot see!!" As the car is bouncing your finger up and down. Who designs this nonsense and then leaves it? I got a Watch the Road warning yesterday because I spent too much time trying to change the temperature 2 degrees, but not 6. Fussy nonsense. Okay Safety, Sentry Mode... What happened to me was I was at 17%, less than 5 miles from the Supercharger I was navigating to. I zipper merged and a trucker who didn't like Teslas, left me a gap and then sped up and hit my Model Y. (He'd been driving erratically earlier.I didn't want to be anywhere near him, but he left this large gap so okay. I think what he did was a felony.) There was a police officer parked right there in the construction zone so I pulled over. The trucker just high tailed it out of there, but.. traffic was slowed. I told the officer my car had just been hit on purpose and it was on video. He got excited... Tesla said, "Charge too low cameras turned off." WT... ? Someone CBd the trucker that the guy he'd just hit was talking to the police so he pulled over and backed down half a mile of shoulder. The officer had probably been looking at his phone - he didn't see anything. Tesla completely let me down. I would never have selected, "OKAY turn off my security cameras so I can have 16% instead of 11% when I get to the Supercharger." Until then I didn't even know it would ever turn off the cameras. I'm left with a dent in my car and no recourse. Settings and Options invariably don't include the critical things. So your battery is low so security no longer matters? Another time two cars had a huge collision in front of me. I hit the save recording button but when I tried to show it to the officer who arrived I couldn't find it. It was on the chip but somehow it didn't show in the menus in the car, it only showed up later on my laptop. And you have to learn from KZbin to buy the Extreme chip because a Samsung SSD drive will overheat and stop working. Tesla doesn't tell you. How about this setting: "If FSD disables itself, slow down the damn cruise control"? When it disables it leaves cruise control on, and because so many analog cars never clearly indicated they were in cruise control, Tesla doesn't either. When you hand off the controls to ANYTHING, airplane, boat, train, etc... you say, "Take the helm," When the other person has their hands on they say, "I have it." Tesla often waits until you are cognitively loaded, freeway curve, traffic, someone changing a lane near you. Quiet bing you might miss and no more FSD, but cruise control is holding your speed. I think this is what's happening in some of the freeway off ramp accidents. And there should be a setting for I've been driving for decades with both hands on the wheel so figure that out. Instead you balance on the steering wheel and Tesla starts having conniptions because it thinks you don't have your hand on the wheel. So you put one hand on, put a little weight on it so FSD notices -- then when it disables you veer to the left. Sometimes just from the weight of your hand and the bump it just drove over. That's just wrong. The maps suck, but all digital maps Google, etc haven't really improved since about 2007. I turn off the voice navigation because I don't want to be repetitiously told how to drive out of my neighborhood every time I drive. You'd think there would be an option. Also it interrupts my audio book with no pause so I miss content. Yeah, I know I complain a lot. Sometimes it takes a bit of a stink to get a positive change. I want Teslas to be the smartest car in the world, that doesn't mean 'good enough,' that means constant improvement.

For the temperature , I had the same issue! Accidentally found an easy way to handle it : voice control. I hit the voice button in my steering wheel, and said “set temperature tomorrow (whatever you want here). And it worked ! I got excited and decided to see if it could adjust the fan speed too - it did ! No ,ore fiddling with the screen while I’m driving . Now I pay attention when I’m driving…when there is something that I want to adjust - I try to use voice. So far it hasn’t missed !

@josephdesimone8251 6 ай бұрын

I prefer to use the percentage mode not the mileage mode, it’s just makes sense to me. When I drive a gas car I go by how much I have in the tank not if I have 20 miles left.

Great features! Miles remained is actually easier to comprehend. And all data such as kWh or % could be attributed to electric appliances we use everyday and which cost x50 less than a car… Plus everyone had the experience when his phone (especially Androids) suddenly went to 0% charge. % does not bring confidence to drivers, miles do.
