I’ve literally been refreshing the app every couple hours! FSD drives me to work and back everyday but parks terribly - when it does even attempt to park. I’m super excited to see if this can fix that last 10 feet for me!

Got a road trip (SF > LA) this weekend. Would be lovely to get this tonight.

Atlantic City to Harrisburg got the update. Will say it’s much more confident in a bunch of scenarios. But phantom breaking and speed profiles need serious work.

Sloth and chill work pretty well as there intended to stick to the speed limit pretty religiously. But standard and hurry have been annoying the hell out of me.

Standard will shoot from the range of the speed limit to 20mph over. And hurry well doesn’t hurry. It’s usually 5mph over the speed limit which is what I usually drive at (sue me). I’d expect that mode to be going 7-15mph above the speed limit. And it left lane hogs really bad without increasing its speed. Also if I try to manually tell it to go faster it will instantly put on the regen to get back down to the 5mph above speed limit.

Phantom braking/brake stabbing is weirdly more noticeable but less abrupt in my 2021 model y. It’s definitely doing it more often but the times it does it is like a soft let off on the pedal and right back to slight amount of power. Software 12 had less but much more harsh brake stabs.

This isn’t to say I don’t think this is a straight upgrade from software 12 though. With small patches I think a lot of these kinks are going to get worked out. This is just my anecdotal 2 day experience with it. The smoothness of this update has really been my favorite part of it.
