If someone changes your settings on your profile, you can just click "Restore" to your settings and they'll go back to what you had saved. Unless, they happen to "save" the changes they made, which I'd doubt they'd see.

Important Note: At the end of this video, you cover 3 ways to disengage autopilot. Two of those 3 methods will disengage both autopilot and adaptive cruise control. The 3rd method (jerking the wheel) will only disengage autopilot, but your cruise control will continue. Not knowing this could potentially cause an accident.

@chuxter715 күн бұрын
@pyoodiepie , not true. I've tested this on multiple Teslas, those with autopilot only and those with full FSD. In both scenarios, jerking the wheel only exits the autopilot/self-driving, but maintains the speed of adaptive cruise control. ONLY the break or pushing up on the stalk will disengage both.

@@chuxter7 I just tested it. Here are my findings: I set it for FSD 1st go and then set for Autopilot. Both options turned off the TACC as well as the Steering control. I do remember in the past you could drop just the steering control and keep TACC in place by a slight turn of the wheel. The solid blue use to turn to a blue circle outline and TACC would remain activated. It is not doing that anymore. perhaps they realized it was a safety issue and changed it in a software update.

on disengaging adaptive cruise control/lane keeping, you didn't mention that if you turn on the turn signal, you don't have to jerk the wheel, but changing lanes does disengage the lane keepingwithout disengaging adaptive cruise control. Also, when you do jerk the wheel, lanekeeping is disengaged but adaptive cruise control continues. Very useful video.

Andy, another great youtube by you. I always learn something. I have noticed that almost all Tesla KZbin providers NEVER mention the benefits of "Navigating to Supercharger". Even if the SC you use is the same one time and time again, using the navigate function (you can mute the voice) enables the cars CPU to prepare the battery for fast charging and in fact, prepares the battery for the best possible charging and long life (contrary to opinions and echo chamber reverberations). So if you want both long battery life and fast charging, navigate to your supper charger and let your Teslas smarts get your battery ready for charging on the way. The next best thing is everything that Andy says and has said.

An actual mistake I’ve seen: 8 cars sitting for over 20 minutes at a full V2 supercharger with a line pulling a max of 75 kW when you only need 10 minutes to get to a V3 supercharger where you’ll be able to get 250 kW.

He gave some mistakes while charging at home and at Superchargers. But mostly a how-to video, which is great content for new or inexperienced Tesla drivers. Maybe this will prevent another uninformed Tesla driver from splitting your charging speed while at an empty V2 Supercharger. Hopefully, these videos will prevent another stupid article about people getting stuck in their Teslas.

Ok, something I have forgotten on all my 2500KM or longer road trips, is check of chargers that are not working, and yes as reliable as Tesla is I have had 5 pedestals that were in cable or connector cooling fail mode and only giving 32KW at a low state of charge over the last year. Strange even after the third time I keep forgetting to check on the Supercharger status when route planning.

Only thing you missed is the hard reset. Done by changing the tire configuration in the service tab. Has to be done in park. I’m still waiting on my service call, and this is keeping me going. It’s only happened 3 times in the last 2 weeks and 2k miles.

The difference between V2 shared and V3 non-shared superchargers can be seen by the skinny cables on V2 ones. Beefy cables are V2. Not sure, but V3 might run at higher voltage, which reduces current and wire diameter?
@kf6auf20 күн бұрын
V3 and V2 voltages and currents are the same because they’re set by the battery. V3 is thinner because it uses liquid cooling to keep cables from overheating instead of relying on thicker, more expensive copper.
@cgamiga20 күн бұрын
That and V2 cables have the shiny metal ring next to the plug. V3 cables have liquid cooling, which enables smaller cable.

The mobile connector does not come with the car. It's been an additional purchase for years now. Come on Andy, you know that. And you forgot to say the charge port door can also be opened by pressing on it. I can't stand vanity plates either. People complain all the time about how expensive it is to register a vehicle, yet they have to problem paying extra for a vanity plate. That's just a waste of money. Not sure I'm ready to trust auto parking into my garage, without a way to stop my car like Summon had. I want Summon back, my HW4 Model Y is almost a year old and still doesn't have Summon, like my 2018 Model 3 had!

Hi Andy, Regarding supplemental Supercharging for those who don’t have access to charging at home or work, what are your thoughts on free (or two-hour limited) destination or shopping center chargers (generally using the J1772 charging adapter). I would like to get a Tesla Model Y, but don’t have the ability to charge at home, and want to preserve the battery, as much as possible.
@cgamiga20 күн бұрын
Data from RecurrentAuto (big battery data collection/reporting tool), showed surprisingly that constant supercharging really didn't seem to make a difference re battery degradation, so.. .don't worry too much about that. Charging very hot >100F ext temps and closer to 100% seems make more of an impact... It's definitely more of a hassle & time sink than home charging, Level2 charging is fine, same as charging at home.. just not as convenient or as cheap (unless you find free!) One hour probably adds 20-30miles, same as home, so... for mall etc chargers, it's more a nice little top-up, it would be bit painful to rely on that for full charging. That's more what workplace is for, if your car sits charging for 6-8hrs, you can fill up entirely.

too many cameras, but not having a good backup camera with a 180 degree view is a bit ridiculous, most of other cars (especially German ones) have 1 wide angle cam in the fornt and one in the back and one display to show what's behind and what is in front of you so you can easily pull out of any parking spot where you view is blocked by 2 big cars on each side of you and in Tesla it's always hoping no one is driving too close and fast as you are trying to back out of a parking spot...

One pedal driving is more efficient, considering it puts energy back into the battery. Hence the name regenerative breaking going down a hill will actually add range
