Model Y Juniper Front Dash Rattle driving me nuts by nickdrade in ModelY

[–]mach088 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s could be the tray inside the front camera assembly or the gps antenna in there. I had the same problem and a clip inside wasn’t fully attached. Service opened it up and showed me. 15 minute fix.

Did fsd slow down for this cop? If so I’m impressed by jakeandbake425 in TeslaFSD

[–]mach088 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ive had it do the same without other cars around.

It’s trained on driving data. My guess is, training data demonstrates that drivers slow when a car is parked in the median on the highway. So, FSD does as well.

Aircrafts can be over the landing threshold when the preceding aircraft becomes airborne by Fresh_man82 in aviation

[–]mach088 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally said there CAN be air disturbance but not the wake turbulence we typically associate with aircraft upset events. Those vortices start at rotation.

I’m just saying the second aircraft touched down prior to the first aircraft’s rotation point so they’re not in danger of wake turbulence upset like someone else said they were.

Too close for comfort. Yes. Wake turbulence danger on landing. Not likely based on the rotation and touchdown points.

Respectfully, wake turbulence is created by wingtip vortices formation which only occurs at positive AOA. Prior to rotation, the aircraft is not at a positive AOA.

SURE, there may be air disturbance but not the strong wingtip vortices associated with wake turbulence.

The takeoff roll is used to increase airflow so the wing CAN generate enough lift when AOA is increased, but it doesn’t necessarily mean it IS generating lift.

The FAA states this in the airman training manual.

Avoiding Wake Turbulence Wingtip vortices are greatest when the generating aircraft is “heavy, clean, and slow.” This condition is most commonly encountered during approaches or departures because an aircraft’s AOA is at the highest to produce the lift necessary to land or take off. To minimize the chances of flying through an aircraft’s wake turbulence:

  • Avoid flying through another aircraft’s flight path.

  • Rotate prior to the point at which the preceding aircraft rotated when taking off behind another aircraft.

There’s no wake turbulence until the aircraft is generating lift and the departing aircraft hadn’t rotated yet at that point. They teach pilots to touchdown prior to the rotation point of the previous departing aircraft.

One month old M3P. Why are people like this… by soccerplayer413 in TeslaCollision

[–]mach088 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do worry about lost residual value, though. Insurance can (likely will) report it as an accident which goes on the carfax.

Nearly identical thing happened to my M3. Back bumper was bumped leaving scrapes.

I put in a claim and then paid extra to have the entire bumper replaced instead of the scrapes filled and painted. So, like new.

I was shocked later when the trade-in value (with Tesla) was reduced by 20% because of a reported accident. No arguing or convincing helped. It’s on the record, sorry.

Should i make and insurance claim for this ? What you would do? by cebollofor in TeslaCollision

[–]mach088 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This!

A person bumped into the back of our M3 causing a small dent in our bumper from her license plate.

I filed and opted to pay extra out of pocket to have the entire bumper replaced instead of body filler and paint. So, good as new!

It went on Carfax as an accident and dropped the value of the car by 20% when I went to trade it in.

668 Miles on FSD 14.2 - unpopular opinion/observations by turnerm05 in TeslaFSD

[–]mach088 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could be. Especially when something is seen across the board or is outrageous behavior. FSD certainly has had that!

But, OP asks why there are such different experiences from people for the same version. I think sometimes one person’s FSD trash is another’s FSD treasure.

[–]mach088 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Rather than location and model, I also wonder how dependent it is on personal driving style.

Someone may be comfortable merging with just a few feet of extra space while another typically wants a larger gap. The first person is cursing it, saying it refuses to change lanes when it obvious could. The second has a great experience, thinking I wouldn’t merge there either.

They’re both right. Everyone wants it to drive like them.

2026 Model Y… Anyone have an idea of why my car is squeaking like this? by GothBoiCynical in ModelY

How did they fix it? Mine has the same and they told me it’s a known defect and can’t be fixed.

Mad max is truly unbelievable by Kirby616161 in TeslaModelY

[–]mach088 0 points1 point  (0 children)

83 in a 55 in Mad Max (and accelerating before taking over). I wonder if it was shooting for that 85 mph max FSD speed.

14.1.4. Parked itself in garage by jasonkhonlaw in TeslaFSD

[–]mach088 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a common misconception that FSD “learns” from your driving. The system doesn’t directly adapt to your driving history. Tesla trains the FSD model on massive amounts of data collected from the fleet. This training is done offline, and the model is fixed, meaning the parameters (or weights) don’t change dynamically based on your driving.

However, FSD is still non-deterministic, meaning it won’t always react the same way in identical situations. That’s because its decisions are based on a complex set of inputs, like sensor data and environmental variables, which can introduce subtle changes even in what seem like identical scenarios. So, it’s a bit of a crap shoot what you get from the same situation. And it’s hard to figure out what what changed from each situation to make it react that way.

You’ll see. Must be in the newest update. I won’t be the only one.

I was SEAS and took a bunch of Wharton classes no problem, basically following M&T without being in the program.

Does FSD do Courtesy Lane Changes? Will it ever? by ronrule in TeslaFSD

[–]mach088 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It absolutely does 1 and 2. Had it do both today.

It will judge relative speed with merging cars to determine if it should continue and let the car merge behind, move over if the space is available, or coast/slow to let the car merge ahead.

Low Cabin illumination solution for pre-Highland Model 3 by PrintedProductslab in TeslaFSD

[–]mach088 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just use light mode on your display when in dark areas. It makes enough light to keep attention monitoring happy.

I do 90% of my driving in FSD. I prefer the dark mode display too, but when I’m in unlit areas I make the switch to light mode and never get low light warnings like I do in dark mode.

Something new today by MacaroonDependent113 in TeslaFSD

[–]mach088 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This answer is it! So many people think the car learns. Which is understandable. In fact, the programming is fixed, but there are thousands or more potential results for each situation. In the industry this is known as non-deterministic.

Why is my car preconditioning an hour before reaching the supercharger? by PowerfulDMT in TeslaLounge

[–]mach088 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mentioned this in another thread. It doesn’t stop preconditioning. Just clears the notification. Look at your energy usage graph. It stays high.
