Tesla should make an OTA where you can mark and position your own parking spot on the navigation screen.

It would be funny to see tesla owners painting lines on the driveway. Lol. I'm sure it will eventually just pull in the garage
@petecastiglione97102 ай бұрын
You could try putting a back of spot cross bar right at the garage door entry. Cut the lines back to about 7’ out from garage. To always have it pick the right spot out hash lines like the end of a parking row in front of the other garage. Then when it stops right before the door just put it in reverse and back straight into garage. Not a permanent solution, but an interesting test.
@SueC562 ай бұрын
At my house I would try putting the lines inside the garage, and back the car into the driveway until it sees the lines and hopefully it would put me in the right place in the garage which is my bigger issue.

Hey. From Nebraska here. I wonder if you put horizontal lines further up toward the garage as a demarcation if that would work. I don't know why a slope would affect it but it apparently does.
@iowatesla2 ай бұрын
Tried that too off camera. Doesn't seem work. It could be the slope of my driveway too.
@thorbjrnhellehaven57662 ай бұрын
@@iowatesla the slope thing is annoying with summon too. I wanted to park up a slope, but it was so steep that I had to fight more to get up from the seat and out of my car. I decided to try to drive forward using basic summon, but it aborted because it was too steep. So I had to get back into the drivers seat, an drive to park, the do the fight I wanted to avoid.
@LithiumLife2 ай бұрын
You should have had a horizontal line to simulate an actual parking spot. Not sure if the car stopped for the decline or because its a lane and not a spot. It initiated the autopark for a standard spot then had not ‘rear’ to finish the task. Pretty cool tho!

Great video thanks. With my M3 I turned on the blinker as it approached my driveway which is very similar to yours. The car turned into the driveway and centered it self in the drive. I will try your tape method to see if it will pull into the garage forward as I need it to for charging. Great idea, Thanks Rusty

Try putting a line across the rear so it has a definite point of reference to stop, not just your garage door. I have a similar area to park at work with only 3 spots on a slight grade and it works.

if I had to guess, its something they programmed in that rather than try and pull in as far as it can, but rather to the point that the front of the car is out of the way of the traffic (fully in the parking spot)

I appears to me that it’s programmed to stop when the nose of the vehicle reaches at or near the start of the line. Since it’s assumed that a parking space is of a certain length, it would be logical to consider the remaining tape length marks the opposite parking space.

OK that was cool. I have a sidewalk, a steep driveway, and am the house before the end of the street where the road turns away from us. The first time ariving home it almost pulled straight into the neibors driveway since its basically straight ahead when coming down the road. I still may give it a shot for fun. Will it find a spot in forward and reverse or just forward? Looked like it finding the spot was a bit inconsistant.

Wouldn’t auto-summon do this? Someone (CfTesla) did a video maybe 4 years ago showing his Tesla parking itself actually inside his garage using auto-summon. I don’t have FSD, so I don’t even know if auto-summon is still a feature that’s available, or if they’ve pulled it until it works (or works better). So if anyone reads this and can tell me, I’d appreciate it. Also, does auto-park allow you the option to pull directly into a space rather than back in? Anyway…love your videos. Thanks for all the info you put out there. I e learned a lot from them.
