OTA Update 2.6.16

[I'm Lucid]

Where's Android Auto?

Every DA improvement gets us closer to hands free operation. I’ll gladly accept a 0.2 mi/kWh free upgrade! Those few extra miles can make all the difference when down to the wire.

Yeah, down to the wire. My record in this area is 3 miles. Yep, my dashboard showed 3 miles remaining (which, of course, was most likely less than that) The lovely lady occupying the front passenger seat was not especially happy. I never imagined she could string together such a string of expletives without even hesitating for a breath. She did so for the entire 15 minutes before I coasted into an EA station. And she's usually so mild-mannered. But all was well after I connected the charger & mopped up the gallon of sweat pooled around my seat.

I’m interested to hear if anything noticeable with the Bluetooth enhancement..?
I didn’t get DDP but plan to when lease time runs out, love to see and hear all about the improvements here.

My only “thing” with my Air (named Tesla Killer) is the delayed wake up time from the app - a “minor” “compromise” IMO, but do hope it can be improved someday. Not even sure if Bluetooth improvement would apply to that? I use iPhone & I’m not on AT&T, mobile key works fine, wake from app is still hit or miss.

I don't think it does. After the update I had to re-enable Bluetooth in the car, however I got into the car using the mobile key passive unlock before I did that.

There are two separate Bluetooth connections for LUCID, one for media and the other for only mobile key. It would seem the mobile key has its own connection because it was not impacted by the cars Bluetooth being disabled from this update.

Rear Emergency Braking Unavailable

I got that warning yesterday while reversing into parking spot. Walked away and had lunch. Haven’t had the alert again after multiple times reversing into spots throughout the day. Have not done an air logo reset since the update.

It could well be my imagination, but it seems the front motor whine is either reduced in volume or the frequency is somewhat different. I'm curious if anyone else has noticed this.

Noticed a difference in the front motor while driving. I had noticed a small vibration coming through the accelerator pedal when car was going downhill with a slight acceleration or regen (basically the charge/power display is at the 12 o’clock position) prior to the update. After 2.6.16 there was no more vibration at the same point. That was noted during a 300 mile trip yesterday (post update)

I installed the 2.6.16 update yesterday morning; dropped my brother off at the airport this am and traffic was really bad - 15 minutes of stop and go to get to Departures drop-off - so I had ample time to test the improved response of cruise control in this situation.

I can report that it now works beautifully and does EVERYTHING I need it to; I never had to hit the gas to get the vehicle to resume driving after a stop.

Great job Lucid team!

Finally I switched off the charger power supply and let the car figure out when to get out of that endless loop at 99%. It somehow ended the update.

If less energy is supplied to the front motors that would presumably account for reduced motor whine…although I’m very much speculating.

I didn't notice any difference in the motor sound in my 2022 GT.

I'll check that as well. For me (I have not yet updated to (2.6.16) it has only happened during highway speeds, going downhill pretty fast.

thank you, I think it worked. I drove a short distance and there were no warnings.

I can't wait to hear my SA tell me it's planned in a future gravity OTA.

We updated the car this last night. Prior to the update, everything was working fine. Now warnings displayed. Ever since the update we are now get warnings, 1st one came on, Rear Emergency Braking Unavailable and then, Automatic Vehicle Hold Fault- Drive with Caution Stability Control Unavailable. Is there anyone else experiencing warnding after this latest update??????

Same

The reboot seemed to work for the warnings however,
Following the reboot, I noticed that the Creep setting was automatically enabled, even though I had never used it before.

When I shifted into Drive while parked on completely flat ground, the vehicle began to roll backward, which seemed unexpected. I immediately disabled the Creep setting, and everything has functioned normally since.

While I do not plan to use the Creep feature going forward,. Has anyone else experienced this?

Previous updates have accidentally switched Hold to Creep; I’ve never had it happen, but it’s been reported here before.

I routinely check now after updates just in case.

Yes, it’s dumb and shouldn’t happen.

If you receive an update, install it. Even if you don't, you'll have to in order to receive any future update anyway.

FWIW, I haven't had any issues with this update, but I did the usual reboot post-update.

Borski sorry for the lame question but for those of us who do not memorize these things can you tell us how to do a reboot post update? I always forget car to car…. And ty!

This sounds more like the Roll setting was switch on. Creep would not introduce a roll; Creep requires a sharp tap on the accelerator to engage and the car would only move forward not backward.

Okay so if it was in the roll setting, I'm not sure what the difference is. why would it go backwards when in drive?

Think of it like a stick shift.
