You explained this very well. The video was easy to follow step by step. One of the best instructional videos I have seen about Tesla features. Well done.
Excellent video! Help me with this issue: If I’m in autosteer and overtaking a slower vehicle, as soon as I turn on my turn signal, the car drops out of autosteer and cruise control and goes into regen braking. 😱 If memory serves, this just started happening a few months ago and the car used to perform as you describe. Settings seem correct. 2020 M3LR, current software version, basic autosteer only.
Ok, so you need to move the wheel to let the system know you are attentive, yet if you move the wheel it will disengage. Obviously there is some fine line between the 2 effects? How much is needed?
Potential MY buyer here. This was a very informative video. Been comparing the driver assist modes of various EVs and this told me exactly what I wanted to know about Autopilot. Thanks.

Weird experience today. Merged onto the freeway, set Autopilot with 55 speed limit sign, 60 max (5 offset), 60 current speed...a mystery speed limit changed to 45...max changed to 45 (which is weird cause I have 5 offset so max should have been 50) and current speed 60...chime cause current speed is over the speed limit...car starts to slowdown to 45...left alone to see what Autopilot would do with the upcoming 55 speed limit sign...speed limit changed to 55 but the max remained at 45. Long-hard press down right stalk to reset speed and the car sped up to 60....then concrete/asphalt transition and the car starts to slow down. So...how to make rhyme or reason with this behavior in order to use Autopilot as a driving aid? At the moment, Autopilot is more of a nuisance. Wife was WTH I was doing...was pretty annoyed and was getting car sick. I will redo this route again to see if this behavior is repeatable. I was on the three month FSD until last week and now have the basic Autopilot. BTW....probably someone already has an answer on the web, but what's with the blinking max speed....was at the traffic light...Autopilot disengaged...max speed was a light gray and then disappeared...reappeared...disappeared. Okay...time for the two finger salute...too weird.
Today is another day. According to the “manual”, if on the highway and signaling to take an off ramp, AP will slow down to the off-ramp speed. Tried it today and was on the edge of the seat to jump on the brake pedal…set 60, max 60, speed limit 55…signal right..off-ramp speed sign 35…and AP changed speeds to 40, 40, 35…then again with no speed limit signs…AP changed the speed limit to 45 but kept the set max speed at 40…passed a 35 sign…AP changed the speed limit to 35…so far kind of good…passed a school zone 25 speed limit sign and no changes…not good…passed a 30 sign…AP changed speed limit to 30 but the set and max remained at 40. Ummmm….why didn’t the set and max speed remained at 40? I guess I’m not exiting the highway so AP will not adjust the speeds. More testing to understand AP.
Thanks for the informative video! I'm wondering what happens if you set your cruising speed to say 70mph at a 70mph zone, but suddenly you enter an 80mph zone, will the car adapt the set/max cruising speed to 80mph? or should you adjust it up (or even down) manually when speed limits change?
There is an automatic offset you can set so for example, I have mine at two or three mph over the limit so when the limit changes, the speed automatically changes as well
2:02 the tedious task of staying in your lane and keeping up with traffic. It's called driving. You know they have schools that teach you how to do this. I highly recommend everybody go to driving school before actually driving. Who's giving you driving licenses without being able to stay in your lane?? I know clutch and gears is beyond your capabilities but steering.... come on now. USA you really aren't N°1 at anything.
What happens if you engage Autopilot, 50 with a 50 speed limit sign, 5 offset so current speed is 55, 35 speed limit sign is passed, over the speed limit chimes, Touchscreen shows 35 speed limit, 55 max, 55 current, will Autopilot disengage and may lock you out of using Autopilot going 20 over the speed limit? Basic Autopilot does not "auto" change the max or current speed when the speed limit drops. Haven't tested Autopilot where the speed limit increases and whether the max or current speed "auto" increases. Maybe should be called "Semi-Autopilot" versus "Autopilot".
Thanks for the excellent video. I just bought a based Model Y a month ago and I love it so much. Can't wait to switch my motorcycle to an equivalent electric version too.
I don’t understand what the point is. If you have to keep steering while auto steer is on what’s the benefit? I tried it yesterday and you have to keep both hands on wheel and it has to feel you moving the wheel. I mind as well just drive at that point.
Great video! 👏👏👏 One question: if you are arriving to a red traffic light and the Tesla stops itself after another vehicle, how long can the other car be stopped so that the Tesla starts again by itself? In my VW Golf, it is 3 seconds, and if it is longer, I have to press the "Resume" button on the steering wheel or press the accelerator. I hope that with autopilot theres in no limit, as it would be very relaxing for traffic jams 😁😁Thanks! 👍
@@Myksgarage Ok, thanks! So there is a limit, as you have to press the accelerator 👍 It makes sense, as we can imagine that the driver has suffered a heart attack and if there was not a limit, the car would be moving forever without human intervention... 😮💨😮💨 Thank you very much again from Spain 😉
@@Myksgarage Oh, by the way: I was wondering if you have realized how long does it take for the need to press the accelerator? 30 seconds, 1 minute? Just out of curiosity 😉😉
Hey great video man my mom just bought a 2024Y performance and she didn’t know how to but my quick question what’s the difference between my 2014 P 85D that also has auto pilot 1 .0 in this one ? Because it looks to me the same as my 2014 model S
@@Myksgarage oh wow wow wow so with this being said, basically a 10 year old software without all the upgrades basically can do as better as a 2024 model 😌 I don’t know if my P 85D came with all the upgrades, but my vehicle allows you to play Netflix and all that kind of goods plus the outer pilot that I have follow the GPS turn by itself it will change lanes if you turn the signal where to and will stop by itself behind the vehicle, so basically will follow the vehicle in front of you at a distance
Exceptional video. Well explained for new Tesla owners like me. The stock Hankook tyres drift all over the road, so I am keen on some form of auto steer.
@Myksgarage Australian Model Y long range with 19" wheels. I tried your trick earlier today. Worked beautifully. That must be the best feature of the lot!
@@Myksgarage Nice. Awesome area. Way different culture than the East Coast, which is where I've been past 20 years or so. I just Ordered a Tesla Model Y, and excited to learn as much as I can.
I've had my 2023 Model 3 Long Range a year now and like the vehicle a lot. But FANTOM BRAKING happens a lot which is very annoying. I was traveling on a toll road speed limit 70 mph doing th legal 80 mph with the Cruise Control on.......all of sudden the fantom braking kicks in which jolts you into a uncomfortable situation. Hitting the accelerator pulls it out of it. But what's the fix for this famtom braking, or just live with it?
Very helpful for me. I'm replacing my Honda Accord with a new Tesla model Y and I feel confident this will be a big upgrade to the adaptive cruise control I've been using that I really like.
A lot of other mainstream cars, including Hondas and Toyotas have "enhanced" autosteer (aka lane keep assist) as standard. My 2022 Honda Odyssey doesn't disengage autosteer when I change lanes.
@@Myksgarage I have use a non Tesla and Tesla Lane Autosteer and they all work the same, you can not just say Tesla is better, also I have a tesla, but there is also Kia has the autosteer that will change the lane automáticamente for free and not pay the 6000
Auto pilot is nothing more than what almost every other carmaker offers now. It's DPCC. Distance pacing cruise control plus Lane Centering and because it does not use radar like Kia, for example, in my opinion Autopilot is an inferior product. Fantom braking with Autopilot is a long standing problem, something I never experienced with my last Kia with DPCC and Lane Centering. The Tesla Vision is inferior in almost every way.
I agree with you bout Kia it works perfectly every time no need to reengage after changing lane etc, however it's not a big deal Its the phantom braking that would make me think twice before moving to Tesla....
