Thank you so much for this tutorial. It is very much appreciated. Just got my Y and a bit overwhelmed with autopilot, you explained it so well that it gives me more confidence to try it.

[@notvaporlocked5479]

Picked up our LRMY last week and drove it 145 miles home. That gave me a chance to start using Auto pilot. Pretty awesome overall but phantom braked me every time I met a semi on the two lane portion at 65 mph. Good to know I can override with the go pedal.

[@montycatral1451]

Great video. Very, Very Informative. Thank you.

[@DaveJackson77]

Great video, Cody. I keep my foot over the brake at intersections as the FSD has thrown me into the middle of an intersection (mainly ones that are not at square angles) and disengaged more than once. So I brake if I see the car acting slightly confused. It is getting better with each update.

[@ninisung5236]

Thank you very much for clearing all confusions about Autopilot.

[@walthooker1434]

Great job, Cody. I figured out the half and full press for autosteer when my wife was in the car. She wasn't a happy camper on half press lane changes! I'm now a new subscriber to your channel. How do you like your Hansshow screen? You must be having some warm weather where you are. It's January and I thought you would still be driving in snow.😃

[@stevedowler2366]

Great detailed AP tutorial, thanks. One thing I missed was why you recommend a double half-press down to engage AP rather than full-down. You started to explain that during the freeway on-ramp maneuver but didn't finish. I suspect it's because you have FSD Beta and full down engages FSD while half down engages AP. Given this was a video on AP for newbies without FSD, the half-down or full-down are equivalent I think. Is that right? Another question not directly on AP: if I subscribe (or pay!) for FSD but don't request to join the Beta program then I get everything but city streets and lights, right? Cheers, S.

[@ggtirevite]

Excellent primer, new to Tesla and have been freaked out a few times; these tips will help. What I am struggling with most is the car not being aware. of the specificity of a the map, An example would be a 3 lane highway splitting into two, two lane highways (like an express and a local. The car really freaks out even though it knows I am going to one or the other as per the route I picked, when I am in the middle lane. I don't understand in that case with it doesn't just follow the one of the sides of the lane (right for local, left for express)

[@balusakthi9]

Nice explanation.I watched fully.

[@dow168]

This was a great video. I like that you emphasized that you need to be in control when on AP. In addition to Tesla's warning about this, its worth noting that if you are in an otherwise "at-fault" accident while on AP, you are liable and responsible. Saying "well the car crashed itself it was on AP" is not a defense.

[@alleo5774]

good video, very very helpful.

[@homerjacob6328]

Hey, just got my Tesla about 3 months ago and have looked at your videos, appreciate the knowledge an insight. I did notice one thing on Autopilot, you can only increase the cruise speed at a max of 5MPH over the speed limit on non divided highways. On the Highway you can adjust it above that. I haven't had the chance to test it, but thought maybe if you have you could verify and or put it in one of your videos at some point. Anyway, thought I'd share. Homer

Autopilot is an umbrella term for autosteer, NOA and FSD. Sorry you were confused

[@michaelstangl1653]

This was a great video and very informative. One question I have is when the Tesla brakes on its own (or goes into regenerative braking) do the brake lights come on to notify the car behind me?

Super cool video, thanks. Can you please also make a video about Enhanced Autopilot. I just ordered my Model Y with delivery date in January 2023, but still not sure if I need to get Enhanced Autopilot.

[@GarretHunt]

Helpful tips. Thank you! You may have covered this in the video and I just missed it... is there a way to control the distance from the car in front of you while in AP? While I'm learning how to use it it makes me nervous how close it gets before the auto braking kicks in.

[@TeNgaere]

Yes, you missed it. The scroll wheel on the right side can be pressed to the left or right while scrolling up or down and that will widen or compress your distance between the car in front of you.

[@luismanrique646]

Good instructional video.

[@CfTesla]

Glad it was helpful!

[@F15HHOOKS]

Thanks Cory, very helpful info for a newbie like me. Can you have AP settings change for each driver profile? My wife isn't happy using it yet but I'm eager to.

[@CfTesla]

Absolutely! Like you saw in the video I was under my wife’s. Mine is way different

[@jeffmichaels1703]

I picked my 2023 Tesla Model Y Long Range AWD on 6/23/23 and with assistance from the Tesla Rep I paid for the FSD Monthly Subscription. I realized on my way home that the only function I received after paying $217 was semi-automatic Lane Change and nothing else. Later I noticed on the Autopilot Screen it showed "Full Self-Driving (Beta) will be available in an upcoming software release - WTF" I complained to a Tesla Rep over the phone in an attempt to get my money back 3 days later and they woul NOT. What a RIP OFF!!! When I picked up my car , the Rep never informed me of this and I am so pissed!!! FSD Beta is still NOT updated.

[@Animeaddictfreak]

When you have autopilot or adaptive cruise control on do you have your foot on the accelerator?

[@ithurielvoss2448]

The square steering wheel for tesla is perfect 👌😁 i know where can you get it in a fair price 🤩

If you don’t have FSD and don’t want to know what you are missing, skip to 6:15. Great primer for me as I wait for my Model 3 to arrive thanks.

[@leegoodman8553]

Hi Do you think the hardware 4 upgrade will be available to hardware 3 cars built in 2022? Do you think the 4 upgrade and the extra cameras they will add is necessary to have fully autonomous driving? I dont think hardware 3 cars will be able to do it

[@frankm2347]

auto steer ? my tesla seems to not stay in the lane? it wonders to the left or right. Do you think I need to calibrate the cameras ?? or maybe its not engaged ? Thanks for the videos . Ive had the car about 10 days.

[@Cuti932]

I have a hard time to interpret what you were saying between 20:21 to 20:31. You said “we can accelerate…in those situations where it’s breaking hard just quickly press it”. Question: you mean when the system brakes hard (because of phantom braking) just press the accelerator pedal quickly to get back the speed? Anybody can answer my question, but I prefer Cf Tesla to confirm it. Thanks

[@likearock2428]

I wonder with AP, the vehicle know to stop at the Red light and at the Stop sight with no vehicle in the front ?.

[@newtoast42]

AT 11:24 when you are 'cut off', why does Autopilot disengage? Did you hit break? Or Stalk? Or turn wheel?

[@lesterhousel]

Does Summon appear on your Tesla app? I paid $6000 for enhanced autopilot but don’t know how to engage it on my new Y LY. I sold my 3 to my son which now has 11 FSD 11 beta. He loves it!

Very good video and stuff I've learned over time. One thing I found with the FSD Beta that is annoying is the wipers start going nuts if the windshield is slightly dirty and the sun hits it just right. It won't let you turn off the wipers unless you completely disengage AP and TACC.

[@CfTesla]

Yes absolutely they are so annoying

[@gregatibu7246]

Hello Cory, I drive a 2021 M3 and I'm paying for FSD but I haven't received any software updates since November 2021... Is it something wrong with my vehicle

[@genosails2]

How much was the purchase price of the Model 3 AWD if you don't mind?

[@Wol747]

You might have started, Cody, by emphasising that you are talking about the 3 and Y! The very first bit about the gear stalk would confuse the hell out of a newby model S or X driver!

[@CfTesla]

Some things are kind of obvious...unless you are only listening to the audio but ill remember that for future videos just in case.

[@savanpanchal451]

I got 2021 model y - compred to my lexus, when i am using adaptive cruise control, when there is slow car in front of me that moves to the right lane, Tesla is slow to speed up compared to Lexus. I almost have to push down gas padel so people behind are not getting upset.

[@imthebest7290]

That looks familiar. Are you in Truckee? Lake Tahoe

[@gwndds]

Picked up my Tesla today and could not figure out how to engage cruise control. No where on the Autopilot screen did it tell me I had to use the shift lever to engage the cruise control . Also in the owners manual I couldn’t find about how to engage it.

[@techyjames1945]

I have AP/Cruise question I haven’t been able figure out since v11 interface. Before v11, if you wanted to adjust set speed based on your preset option you could tap the speed limit sign on the screen and it would change Max speed to your preset. Perfect example is if the speed limit changed and car didn’t automatically change speed tap the speed limit and it would change max based on your preset and the current speed. Another case is if you change it say while passing to speed up the pass. You used to be able to tap the speed limit icon and it would automatically go back to your setting. Now the only bill at I found was to use scroll wheel up or down to match the max back to what your preset is.

[@CfTesla]

Sorry if I missunderstood something but are you saying that now if you tap on the speed sign it doesn't go back to your preset? If that is the case mine does and I believe it does it in thiis video.

[@techyjames1945]

@@CfTesla that is exactly what I am saying. It worked just fine prior to v11. Now the max speed no longer adjusts by tapping the speed limit sign. Now this is testing on the interstate while NoAP. I haven’t tested while in FSD in city/rural roads.

[@techyjames1945]

Actually watching another video I discovered why it don’t work for me and might work for you. I never use full screen driver visualizations. I always have it with map up. With map tapping the speed limit sign doesn’t work. Now if you have the full screen driver visualization then tapping the speed limit sign does work. This definitely feels like an UI big for it to work in one mode and not other mode.

[@robeeenz]

I think the title should include FSD. I went on for some autopilot only info and a lot of it was irrelevant to me but great for FSD people

[@Superman-xr1oh]

What gauge cluster is that? 👀

[@dathyr1]

It is now May 2023. OK I looked at a Tesla model Y order sheet. There is an Enhanced Auto Pilot (EAP) which is kind of what this video is talking about. To be able to use EAP we have to pay 6000 dollars. You say it is free in video which it is not. I think there is just a Cruise Control which is probably all that I would need and can be controlled on the steering wheel or Touch Screen. I don't need an Adaptive or Enhanced Cruise Control if it is going to cost 6000 dollars. If I am wrong on anything, let me know. With just basic a Cruise Control, what is the minimum speed it can be used at, because I do just regular highways, not Freeways???? I don't have any Tesla vehicle at this time, just learning as much as I can before I decide what I want. Thanks and take care.

[@lizard6432]

Why did you change the yoke?

[@BellaSoul-mm6lb]

Watched a bunch of videos and you were the only one who somewhat mentioned how in basic autopilot the adaptive cruise control will automatically change its speed by looking for speed limit signs (even if no other cars are on the road), is that correct? So it uses the cameras or its gps map to find the speed limit and then automatically adjusts the car to that speed? (In basic autopilot)?

[@CfTesla]

It actually uses both although it’s mostly cameras because sometimes when I am testing it I pass a sign beside a semi where it can’t see the sign and it misses the sign.

[@billvargas1657]

Why in the world at stop lights is the car 2 car lengths behind the car in front of you.

[@BellaSoul-mm6lb]

So if you engage autopilot at 25mph and then the speed limit changes to 30 and then 35 and then 45 and then 55 and then 65, etc. the cars adaptive cruise control part of the autopilot would automatically change to the speed limit without any user input and even if no other cars were on the road, is that correct?

[@CfTesla]

Yep

[@tednguyen208]

Well the 5 mph over limit max makes it useless for long trips.

[@Bits4Blits]

What are your (or anyones) thought on using it during heavy stop/go traffic? I am always afraid there will be issues with people suddenly stopping/trying to merge. Thoughts?

[@MrGrandeflipper]

absolutely 100% use it in traffic. It does all the stop and go for you.

[@sfiron]

Great video. I do hope someone in Tesla is watching....I have the Y model 2022 in Israel. I just moved to Tesla from Volvo S90 2019. I was disappointed to find a lot of issues with the Auto Steering. Mainly if I could sum it up it feels like the design was assuming much better conditions. On the one hand you need to stay attentive but on the other hand the steering wheel will not let you nudge the car left or right in the lane or switch lanes yourself after indicating. Very forceful interaction as well including some times in which the steering wheels trys to leave the lane based on false marking on the road. The lack of pressure sensors in the steering wheel is part of it I suspect. Also the default speed when you engage adaptive cruise control is either speed limit or current speed. I find that ok for the most part but at a crawl I would use 30km/h as a default for anything under 30. Just outside my neighborhood the car "thinks" the speed limit is 110 where it's 90. Which make the car try and speed too much. I did not find the exact right combination for that. The display of the autopilot is also sometimes distracting. Jumping blue lanes jumping pedestrians and such. Too much information you cannot use. Another point - I did not find a way to disengage auto steering. Yes you could turn the steering wheel but that's really forceful and not smooth. Over all a bit of a disappointment.

[@aleksandarmarkovic8745]

Can you engage auto steer without cruise control?

[@BaronSamedi1959]

That would be very dangerous.

[@walthooker1434]

I don't think so. The first press of the gear stalk will put the car into cruise control and the second press will engage autosteer (and also FSD if it's paid for.)

[@Khonsaiho]

You can't do that but you can step on gas during auto steer to tell car to speed up a bit more.

[@crazybeartimba]

I hope auto turn comes to regular auto pilot like in a Kia :(

[@CfTesla]

It wont. People pay $15k for that turn

[@mav48185]

Is your autopilot on FSD? If not then it doesn't work with red lights unless you're behind a car. The hard brake without FSD is probably car preventing you from an accident rather than actually braking at red.
