Yep
I asked a service question via the app and got told the same. Not very good. Not sure what the point of a 1tb SSD drive is then? To store sentry events and dash cam events that you have chosen to record? That lot would take an age to add up to 1tb
Why record and keep everything so you have to sift through hours of footage? Just hit the save icon to tap the horn. The bit you want to keep is kept.I asked a service question via the app and got told the same. Not very good. Not sure what the point of a 1tb SSD drive is then?

Also, tapping record seems to record about 1-2 mins going back. Does not seem to then start recording until you tell it to stop
Let's say you're in an accident and you record it. Great. Then you get out your car and there's an altercation. That won't be recorded unless you retrospectively tell it to. Might be lost by then
There should be a facility to record continuously IMO

I get the impression it records in small video segments, maybe 1 min long, if you press the button it saves that segment and the previous one so the start and end can vary depending how far through you are a segment when you record. It’s the minimum viable implementation of a feature to be able to say you have it and the developers can go back to working on fart noises through the pedestrian warning speaker.Let's say you're in an accident and you record it.

Apart from tapping the horn, what button do you press to record (or save) a segment? I've never known! 
I've set my left scroll button to record if I long press itI know the scroll wheels do things and can roughly work it all.
Sometimes though I do go to change the speed on cruise control and the radio changes or the podcast stops etc. Trying to explain it to my wife when she’s driving usually results in suboptimal outcomes.
Not sure I want to add a recording device to the mix.
Never mind, my next Tesla likely won’t have stalks either.

I took my wheel covers off assuming it was just aesthetics, but seen some blurb about range, anyone tested with and without and noticed any real world difference?
They say they make a difference at motorway speeds, but I have used the car with and without and I can't say I've noticed any difference. I guess traffic and road conditions have more influence: maybe on a long flat, traffic free stretch of motorway there's an advantage, but does such a place actually exist?I now use the wheel covers in winter and take them off when I put the summer tyres back.
Help me out with mirrors please
I have the auto tilt on which is useful when parking. My issue is that auto tilt with I put the car in park which then does not allow me to see approaching traffic when exiting the car. I swear it never used to do this.
You cannot set the auto tilt individually. It's on for both or off for both.
I swear it was not like this before

Auto-tilt when you put the car in park? I've never stumbled across this feature. I'll give a look later I have the auto tilt on which is useful when parking.

New colours are likely due to Berlin production for RHD cars.
The tilting mirror, my guess is you have comfort access enabled which has its own profile and which has them set that way, I don’t use it so can’t remember how to set it/enable it etc. but I’d look there. I’ve heard people sometimes create duplicate profiles with just a few differences which you can select, mirror position being one of them, giving you options to relatively quickly toggle between 2 positions

This was it. Thank you. I changed out of the easy access into my own profile and all was restored The tilting mirror, my guess is you have comfort access enabled which has its own profile and which has them set that way, I don’t use it so can’t remember how to set it/enable it etc. but I’d look there.

I don't quite follow how comfort access remembers all my other settings like seat and standard mirror position but not this. But anyway, all fixed now
The soft reset didn't work fyi

I think you just need to adjust your mirrors when in easy access and remember to save that profile. I don't quite follow how comfort access remembers all my other settings like seat and standard mirror position but not this. But anyway, all fixed now
