What's in the new FSD V13.2.9‑Release?
Tesla has finally rolled out a Full‑Self‑Driving‑Update after 84 days of radio silence. FSD V13.2.9 lands on all HW4‑vehicles – from Model 3 to the Cybertruck – and comes together with the vehicle software 2025.14.6.
Small version number, big effect?
-
Point‑Release (from 13.2.8 to 13.2.9)
-
No new release notes – Tesla only reports "bug fixes"
-
Rollout to Early‑Access‑Testers AND to the broad fleet – signal for stability
Distribution & Target Group
-
HW4‑vehicles including Cybertruck receive the update with the new FSD‑build
-
HW3‑models remain for now at FSD V12.6.4 – no new features
-
Early‑Access‑Program in Texas could provide data for the upcoming Robotaxi‑launch
Bugfix for TCU‑Sleep Mode
Several service centers confirmed that 2025.14.6 fixes a bug in the Telematics Control Unit. Affected cars did not sleep correctly and unnecessarily lost energy. The patch is supposed to normalize the range loss while stationary.
What FSD V13.2.9 brings in practice
-
Improved lane selection and lane center? Initial feedback shows: Lane‑Keeping‑Issues still partially persist.
-
Cybertruck now finally on the same level as Model S/3/Y – including Start‑FSD‑from‑Park and Unpark.
-
No new operating instructions, no Vision‑Autopark‑extensions – Tesla is apparently first working on FSD V13.3 or even FSD V14.
Why only a mini‑update?
Tesla often uses point‑releases to:
-
quickly eliminate critical bugs
-
quietly adjust data models
-
prepare the base version for upcoming feature leaps
Exactly that could happen here: FSD V13.2.9 stabilizes HW4 vehicles before new features (e.g., robotaxi interfaces) are rolled out with the next major release.
Outlook: When will the big leap come?
-
Rumors about FSD V14 with auto-regressive transformers have been circulating since Q4/24.
-
Tesla is still aiming for a robotaxi pilot in Austin for June 2025 – a major leap in the software would be logical.
-
HW3 owners are waiting for an optimized V12 line; an update is "in progress" according to Elon Musk.
