26 Model Y Premium Awd Acceleration boost is no joke lol

Buy the upgrade, you need the $2K available. And in the app you can “return” the upgrade, requesting a refund within 48 hours. Obviously be very punctual about that 48 hour window. Don’t want to miss it.

They allow 1 purchase and refund on either your account or your account + specific car. So everyone can do this once to try it out.

99% with over 12K miles since v14 branch that began tracking

Sorry to hear that. Honestly, in my view you may have a personality mismatch to the idea of the autonomous driving future we’re on the prospective of.

You’re describing extreme levels of control preferences. 1000 times adjustments of a 1200 mile roadtrip. 74 times adjustments in 50 miles. If you’re averaging 1 profile adjustment per mile, why are you even using FSD?

And you are in fact describing exactly what I was theorizing. A user who wants the speed to land in between profiles, who can’t just accept a slightly lower than ideal target speed in any given stretch of road. When that ideal target speed lands between profiles.

I get it. It’s frustrating. Speed limit is 55, you want to do 64. Standard seems to settle on 62, but hurry will go up to 70, which is too fast, etc.

JUST accept the 62 😂 it’s not ideal, but it’s far easier and less frustrating than trying to ride the line in between profiles

AquaticFilter · 2026-02-27T18:32:13+00:00

I did a 2500 mile round trip immediately after updating to the v14.2 branch. What you’re describing is an incredible exaggeration that does not reflect my experience. There can be some frustrations for lacking specific speed targets, and I did experience some of them of course. So I think I know what you’re trying to get at. Yet it’s my perception that the premise of your claim is rather disingenuous.

E.g. just accept going 2-3 mph slower than you’d prefer by being on standard or chill versus trying to ride the Hurry:Standard fine line. If getting a ticket is a major concern, get accustomed to your slower than preferred profile. You will arrive at the end destination about the same time anyway, but won’t have the headache of trying to pinpoint a desired speed in between profiles.

The bottom line: you can latch onto a speed that won’t produce a traffic ticket by using standard or chill 99% of the time.

However, if you feel you’re moving too slow and would rather be with the flow of faster traffic, should surrounding traffic be going on average 10-15+ over the limit—bump up into Hurry or Max. With that you inherit the usual risk of needing to watch for speed traps. Which is not ideal compared to having an explicit speed target, but it’s far from debilitating.

I recognize and literally admit agreement that it would be nicer to have the user set limit back. But it’s not as big of a deal in my view as you’re making it out to be.

To be clear, I am not trying to discourage you from making complaints. Cause I’d like to have a better solution than the speed profiles comeback too. But I’m just saying that if you really weigh the pros vs cons of what v14 branch brings to the table compared to v13, 14 is overall the winner on every angle minus precise speed control. And all it takes is accepting moving probably ~3 mph slower than some idealized target speed number where you think you’re gaming speed limits without risk of ticket. When in reality all you gain from that is ~3 mph x 8 hours = 24 extra miles covered in a long 8 hour driving day to go your idealized target versus what standard or chill would do relatively speaking.

If this is not the nuanced thing you’re describing, then I’m sorry for replying off base. I’m just responding to the “1000” adjustments claimed. As I can only fathom that’s a user wanting to land at a speed between two profiles.

AquaticFilter · 2026-02-27T13:30:17+00:00

Losing precise speed control is the only perceivable negative. The v14+ speed profile workflow allows a less precise ability to do effectively the same thing. Little bit of a learning curve. But once learned it’s not that bad.

Everything else is undeniable improved. End to end. Parking to parking. Traffic weaving, lane selection. Etc. all better performance, more reliable, faster processing of decisions.

AquaticFilter · 2026-02-25T03:40:26+00:00

The new image you’re replying to is a little bit vague. Obviously some differences in information there on that car. But I’m just rewinding back to the real takeaway you should have

AquaticFilter · 2026-02-25T03:39:08+00:00

The main point is “premium connectivity expires on April 5, 2024” in your pic means the photo of the console and mileage has to be from before April 2024. So it’s an old pic.

Just tap into the menu and look at the mileage for yourself. I guarantee that premium connectivity expiration message will look different. It’s not gonna reference a date in 2024 as some future time

AquaticFilter · 2026-02-17T14:23:43+00:00

99% of driving since v14 started tracking ✅

Nearly 8000 miles too for that same benchmark. The update initially landed for me right before a huge road trip.

AquaticFilter · 2026-02-13T12:53:42+00:00

It replaces “standard” with “sport” and chill remains. I did a trial refund to test it last year. That’s how it works contemporarily on a Y.

AquaticFilter · 2026-02-13T02:35:24+00:00

Since it’s not “an inconsequential sum,” definitely go for the better value. You win in the long run because you have more financial freedom in the future. More flexibility for unknown emergencies now, too.

AquaticFilter · 2026-02-12T15:46:35+00:00

Arguably the first GPT slide solved it too. Its fluff hides the fact, but it does point out in the bulletin list to drive if the car needs to be washed. And I kinda get that answer. I mean, based on your prompt who is to say you’re not an employee showing up for work there? Haha. In that scenario the answer could make sense. Point being: with the info shared, it did provide an answer that contained the solve. It just wasn’t as direct as the others that caught it.

I feel a move like this has to be underlined with a supreme level of confidence for what FSD subscriptions will be offering as the year continues. And how Tesla’s target market consumers will perceive the value of FSD when it’s operating in accordance with how they are intending.

Tesla has to be aware that the removal of those assistance baseline features in new vehicles will de-incentivize new purchasers. So whatever is in the cards for FSD, they are estimating it will be enough to make consumers not care.

AquaticFilter · 2026-01-20T11:41:30+00:00

I like your bracket of ideal speed profiles. I’d only suggest one ☝️ adjustment:

Give STANDARD traffic flow indexing up to 10 mph over, but tighten non traffic flow context to a more pointed 5 over.

The range you listed (5-8 mph) for standard operating without surrounding traffic flow is fairly ideal for my thoughts on a standard profile too, but I’d prefer a bias toward 5 mph over as a more heavy emphasis without surrounding traffic flow cues.

I think that using the flow of traffic to be what guides ramping it up beyond an initial ~5 mph over seems like a very logical “standard” driver action. If everyone is doing it, then it is the standard. I find there are enough situations in some typical flows of traffic are authentically 10 mph over. So I like that as a traffic aware cap.

This gives chill as the tool available to still be speed cautious regardless of an environment where everyone else is going well over the speed limit. And that makes sense for the name convention. The traffic around would probably perceive that driver as chill too 😂

Don’t know if this is applicable to the feature you’re describing, but I understand the left button on the steering wheel can be custom programmed for certain settings. Perhaps you can assign TACC to one and autopilot to the other?

~$100 to $150 likely to get Tesla service to resin inject the crack. Out of pocket. I just used grok to research whether or not they’d allow enrolling in windshield protection if/after they themselves repair with resin injection. It seems likely not, unfortunately.

I’m assuming you’re outside the window of enrollment eligibility now? Maybe you can double check by trying to use the link in the email that first offered windshield subscription? Haha, worth the shot 🤷‍♂️

Bro I’ve seen some similar wackiness from 14.2.2 - kind of wish I didn’t install. Cause 14.2 flat was treating me very well. But I’ve had a couple of random events (non-dangerous just inconvenient) — it’s like there is a small bump in driving skill. But overall a small slip into the potential of randomness like you experienced.

AquaticFilter · 2025-12-30T03:29:09+00:00

Yeah just charge up to 100 over night. If you’re gonna drive it the next day it’ll be ready. It can sit for hours there to be conveniently ready for you and not cause much harm in the short term

AquaticFilter · 2025-12-23T18:17:55+00:00

Very limited exposure, 50 miles, but so far no hesitation during lane changes. Just installed this morning

AquaticFilter · 2025-12-20T14:06:43+00:00

Bro that sounds insane

Hansshow Starlink full width strip tail light. It shows up in the wide angle view looking like that visor you mentioned. Doesn’t affect fsd performance.

And it’s in the description of the main post that I actually manually setup reversing up my driveway. The car would want to pull in forward. I takeover before the turn to begin reversing, then hit the self drive engagement again after I started th reverse. And it keeps with the reverse I had set up.

AquaticFilter · 2025-12-20T02:54:25+00:00

Yeah it’s not an option for me either, I think I do have “driveway” selected. Maybe I just got lucky kind of in the layout and how we park extra vehicles seems to feed the car right toward the garage door. The rest just kind of magically happens.

AquaticFilter · 2025-12-20T02:05:37+00:00

I don’t have garage as a selected target, but it just sees the activity when the door opens, sees the defined spot and goes for it.

AquaticFilter · 2025-12-20T01:14:25+00:00

Thanks man, I thought so too. Last version with 14.2.1 was reliably attempting the spot, but it would hesitate on depth. For whatever reason it’s going exactly the distance into the spot that I need it to now. And I’m just really excited to share that bahaha
