    Large Drive Unit Milling

    I got the same 6k quote for new (Base) and 5.2k for reman.

    Large Drive Unit Milling

    Wow...uncanny timing. $5k for the latest LDU version reman'd with the warranty sounds good to me too. I'm still waiting on what my svc will come back with.

    Large Drive Unit Milling

    That is my thoughts initially as well. However with the latest version that NV Ray mentioned with the coolant delete, I'm contemplating the replacement since I'm having to refill the coolant about every 6 months. I'm just assuming that the coolant is leaking into the LDU. Have you also had to...

    Large Drive Unit Milling

    Thanks again for the data. I'm gonna have to check coolant intrusion at some soon when the warms up a bit here in the northeast. I suspect my LDU may have the intrusion and assuming may fail sooner, so now thinking more about doing the proactive replacement.

    Large Drive Unit Milling

    Thanks for that data point. This is what I'm thinking of doing as well...driving it until failure or if the noise gets to me. Though if this new version of the LDU resolves the coolant issue and with warranty, I may bite. Did you have to refill the coolant during those 4 years/75k?

    I'm ok with being test case with the warranty.

    Thanks for the info. I'm now contemplating proactively replacing it if the newest version solves that coolant issue.

    Large Drive Unit Milling

    2014 MS85...just started having the milling noise about a month ago. Didn't notice it at first until one day the music cut off and heard it faintly for the first time. It's now the very noticeable at low speed, high pitch at higher speed noise that other thread users have posted about. And as...

    Wiki Sudden Loss Of Range With 2019.16.x Software

    Finally had a chance to go on trip and supercharge. Things are back to 'normal'. Supercharged a few times and it's ramped up to max 118kw from what I saw on the screen. These were hot days also in the low to mid-90s.

    I've not had to supercharge yet as I've been only local since picking up. 270miles is what showed as service center charged up to 100% prior to pick up.

    Wiki Sudden Loss Of Range With 2019.16.x Software

    Yes...pull the upper cover in the frunk and can see the expansion tank and markings. Mine was way below the 'Min'. Can only assume whatever work was done, when they put things back to together didn't notice/get the error since not enough miles were put on the car during their test drive. I've...

    I'm on coils. Scheduled another service call for later this week. Got the 'Coolant is Low' message. Checked the coolant level and way less than 'Min'. Topped it off for now but want them to give it another once over since they did some cooling system work.

    Yes...they had rescheduled a few times awaiting parts. It was quick turnaround after dropping off car at the service center.

    Got the car back today and confirmed the pack was replaced with 1014116-00-C. Rated range at 100% is now 270miles. The rear upper suspension links on both sides were also replaced, along with a coolant refill and bleed. The work only took a couple of days.

    2014 MS85, 105k, gated with the 2019 update...I'd estimate (anecdotally) full range at ~210m prior to BMS_u018 message. Oddly, I just checked and 12v was discharged, hooked up 12v to charger and SoC says 100% but 0miles range. Still will not charge. Keeping trickle on the 12v overnight and...

    I was gonna post after I brought the car into service (per the 'letter') but I have some uncanny timing. I had initially set an appt for May 2 however it was set as mobile service so they changed it to May 17. May 16, they reached out to basically say that they didn't have all the parts for...

    Coilover suspension upgrade on non-air ride TMS

    I had not thought about spring rates. Am not looking to lower the car rather just replace the current oem coilovers which are going on 5+ years. Would definitely be good to know what oem are.

    Coilover suspension upgrade on non-air ride TMS

    Also interested in any experience on ride quality with the Airtekk. Also wondering if anyone has experience/looked at BC racing YG-04-BR which is a little cheaper. Car feels like it's rolling over cobblestones most of the time, and now starting to sound like a squeaky bed. Figured will replace...

    Sell 2014 Model S before 8 Year warranty expires?

    The car limited warranty is expired but the battery warranty is good for another 2 months. Not sure the coolant message would be covered by the battery warranty. Perhaps can try to swing it. Knock on wood, haven't had any issues with the battery. wk057 battery extension plan does tip the scale...

    Sell 2014 Model S before 8 Year warranty expires?

    Came on here because the Coolant is Low message just popped up the other day and stumbled up on this thread. The car is out of warranty and the battery warranty expires in April. Had the same thoughts about selling before though leaning more to keep for alot of the same reasons as others on...

    Pre-facelift vin <50900 can't use v3 supercharger?

    Thanks for info...another data point that it's prolly just me. The vin was when they switched tpms systems, so wasn't sure if also updated charge port (design).

    Pre-facelift vin <50900 can't use v3 supercharger?

    Thanks, at least that confirms it should work. Guess I can try a tad bit more push-in force. Not sure me sanding the charging cable connectors would get a welcomed look. Just seemed strange that this happens at multiple locations and multiple stalls, and these SCs have been around for at least 6...

    Pre-facelift vin <50900 can't use v3 supercharger?

    Anyone with older Model S unable to use v3 superchargers? Tried multiple locations and stalls, and each time, get yellow light around the charge port and the following messages in the instrument cluster 'Charge port latch not engaged' 'Fully insert charge cable or check for obstruction'...

    So I have two sounds... there is a humming that is most noticeable between 30-35mph. If kept at constant speed with no music, it's a constant humming electrical sound. The other sound I get that I think is what your describing is a spooling sound on acceleration or deceleration. The SC says...

    Congrats!! Though, please report back on findings with SC with regards to the DU noise. I brought my car in for an alignment as it was pulling more and more to the right compared to when I first took delivery 1.5 months ago, and a similar noise issue. A "humming" around 25-35mph or at least that...

    Windows up, AC On vs. Windows down, AC off

    I see much better wh/m (>30) with windows up/AC on (67F) than windows down/AC off for both in-town and highway driving. Even better when highway driving when cruising at constant 70mph, I've had wh/m of ~270

    I got something similar and had to ask for the pre-refurb'd checklist to figure out what was repaired/replaced. Definitely keep pressing. Once they are done with refurb and just about ready for delivery, it's like a floodgate opening. Unless there isn't much to be refurb the back and forth with...

    Yea, in NY, it's required. I do know people who are adamant of not having a front license plate among other reasons that they are able to register their vehicles in FL or NC while living here.

    My insurance carrier for my ICE wanted 50% more than what Progressive gave me. Once the ICE insurance comes due again, I'll try to start bundling with Progressive. Sounds like you're on a good timeline...good luck.

    Wow...I feel for you. The lack of communication is what I was very afraid of when ordering. Luckily my DS was pretty good with communication so it eased the long wait. Perhaps hit up your advisor as well as stopping by your SC, if it's close by.

    Greenbacks are so passe just like filling up gas. After yesterday's fill-up, I'm thinking the ICE is just going to be a large mobile gas container for the lawn mower to syphon.

    I used a CU for the loan as I got 1.74%. Though I could have gotten the loan for the full amount, I opted to put 20% down as I don't like to carry debt/large monthly payments though it's necessary to get good credit. Dumped it into my acct, direct debit on pickup for final payment due which...
