    Getting a 2017 Tesla Model S with $4k EV tax credit up front?

    Tesla probably isn’t going to resell a $25,000 Model S. I believe there is an online service that facilitates third party private sales but still qualifies for the $4000. Or, as mentioned, you’ll have to check with each non-Tesla dealer.

    Who referenced LIDAR in the FSD class action?

    We don’t know. It might be a claim by the plaintiff that Tesla said it. Or it might be a claim by Tesla counsel. Or Tesla counsel response to a plaintiff claim. But we should be able to figure that out if someone can get us the preceding documents. What we do know, thanks to @JB47394 is that...

    Who referenced LIDAR in the FSD class action?

    I changed the title to more accurately reflect who is doing the admitting and the fact that we haven’t seen the original motion to dismiss yet. “Judge says Tesla counsel says…” seemed a little long. Then I changed the title again to something much less click-bait and more about what I think is...

    2022.8.10.17 2017 MCU1 AP2 HW3

    If you get that in writing, it will be a help to you and others in getting MCU2 upgrades. You’re going to need the upgrade if you want FSD anytime soon. The version of FSD that was installed on those few MCU1 vehicles was subject to a recall. And no version has been released since. So although...

    Tesla Advanced Driver Assistance Systems Litigation, U.S. District Court, Northern District of California, No. 22-05240

    Seems like a lot of judges view a total amount punitive to the company without considering whether the individual amount is worth the trouble.

    Tesla Advanced Driver Assistance Systems Litigation, U.S. District Court, Northern District of California, No. 22-05240

    I’m curious about the class action status. Are owners in by default and have to opt out? Out by default and have to opt in? How long do they have to decide? And would claimants have to forgo their current FSD? Would awards be based on the actual amount paid? Would awards for resold cars be...

    Tesla Advanced Driver Assistance Systems Litigation, U.S. District Court, Northern District of California, No. 22-05240

    The proposed nationwide class action…led by Thomas LoSavio, a retired California lawyer who said he paid an $8,000 premium in 2017 for Full Self-Driving capabilities on a Tesla Model S, believing it would make driving safer if his reflexes deteriorated as he aged…

    Mounting a Ham Radio

    Bonus points if anyone figures out how to packetize the signal and send it over to the MCU, maybe as a fake XM radio signal. Double bonus if you use any of the on screen buttons to control it. Or even the next / previous track and play / pause from the steering wheel.

    Upgrading to a faster Intel Atom Chip?

    I’m hoping the new roadster uses a vertical screen as the prototype did. That way you might be able to hack an entire Ryzen setup yourself, even if you have to dump the extra heat into the cabin because your legacy S/X doesn’t have a cooling loop. If Ryzen builds only ever release in horizontal...

    Tesla MCU Index - ARM Tegra, Intel Atom, AMD Ryzen

    I would say theoretically, FSD should work with MCU1. But few ever got it and none are getting it now. Keep in mind that early MCU1 cars don’t have the interior driver camera, so that may affect availability. You pay for the MCU upgrade although some sue Tesla to get it reimbursed. The other...

    My experience taking Tesla to court about FSD

    I assume that you are referring to me since at the moment I am the only dissenting comment. Most of the US law is based on UK law. In the US you can absolutely have a claim against a manufacturer without being the first hand owner. In fact you can without being any owner: for example if you...

    Autopilot locked

    Did you buy from Tesla or from a third party? If from a third party, any chance they bought used from Tesla? In the US, Tesla removes FSD from used cars it resells, so I can see an argument at Tesla corporate to do the same for autopilot. I just don’t know that we’ve seen it done for basic...

    USA MY RWD has soft limited LR battery!

    Hmm. So the AWD Fremont 2170 peaks at 250 kW (maybe higher since Tesla’s v3 Supercharger only goes to 250 kW and the v4 is ironically also locked at 250 as well) and the AWD Austin 4680 peaks at 227 kW. And this RWD peaks at 163 kW. But the RWD LFP has always been capped at 170 kW right? Or...

    Israel/Hamas conflict

    Let’s not quote “from the river to the sea” in this thread please. While I can see the sarcasm in using a phrase that was originally coined by Palestine about destroying Israel, to in turn destroying the most extreme elements of Gaza sharing such this attitude, considering that the phrase has...

    2017 X 100D. What is a degradation level that will trigger a battery replacement ?

    More recently built cars with 30% thresholds also have 100k to 150k mile limits on the warranty. Your car, and mine have no threshold but do have unlimited mile warranties for 8 years.

    I retrofit MCU2, IC2, Tuner2, and FSD Computer into my HW2.0 Car

    The Intel CPU is air cooled and yes the combined Ryzen and HWx heat sink is looped into the heat pump via the octovalve. I don’t think the cooling is the hardest part. Rigging a separate liquid cooling loop that expels heat away is not difficult. Not great in the summer, but worst case you could...

    I retrofit MCU2, IC2, Tuner2, and FSD Computer into my HW2.0 Car

    My thoughts? If you mean the MCU3/HW4 combo, I think really unlikely anyone offers an upgrade. Technically, there might be enough interest in this in the future to eventually community source a retrofit to put a future hardware Ryzen version, even with a future HW4 or higher equivalent, that...

    FSD(supervised) v12 on a legacy

    Mijn excuses dat ik je vraag niet begrijp. Als u zich afvraagt waarom het uitmaakt of u FSD huurt of ronduit koopt om uw hardware te upgraden, zou dat niet moeten, maar dat doet het wel. In de VS stappen eigenaren soms naar de rechter om Tesla hun hardware te laten upgraden voordat ze FSD huren...

    Model 3 Highland Performance/Plaid Speculation [Car announced 04.23.2024]

    It could have there were no max_torque limit. See above. But, the motor would not last long without a maximum torque setting.

    Model 3 Highland Performance/Plaid Speculation [Car announced 04.23.2024]

    This is a great picture. The artificial limits have been known for a long time. They are called max_torque and max_power and are firmware settings. max_torque determines that initial slope on the left. max_power determines the height of the curve. Each motor has its own max_power and there is a...

    FSD(supervised) v12 on a legacy

    In de VS zal Tesla HW2.x altijd gratis upgraden naar HW3 en vroege RCCC-camera's naar RCCB als u FSD volledig koopt. En soms doet Tesla dat als je maandelijks betaalt. Maar geen van beide maakt uit of je een MCU1-auto hebt, want FSD is niet beschikbaar voor MCU1 en je wacht op FSD, zelfs met die...

    Testa Model X - p90(82K miles) vs 100D(92k Miles)

    2017 100D Even If the P90 is a late 2016 (AP2) car. Even if the 90kWh is not an early pack revision prone to degradation and failure. Because of the aforementioned coolant drive unit failure issues. Bonus for extra range and higher supercharging speed.

    Car is dead after unplugging at supercharger

    This is very helpful. And I assume Diagnostic mode pulls this from the BMS and that the BMS is in the pack. So that the limit percentage moves with the battery pack, correct?

    Car is dead after unplugging at supercharger

    I assume the limited setting stays with the car. If you have a 90 corked to to 85, and then install a third party 100. Which is true… 100 is capacity unlimited 100 is capacity limited 5kWh 100 is capacity limited 5.55% Does anyone know? (Edit: I am rewording any language from “corked” to...

    Car is dead after unplugging at supercharger

    Whew. So I think the seats are the remaining issue. Didn’t Tesla do a battery upgrade where you had to upgrade the seats so that they matched the crash testing? I wonder what they did with all those seats.

    Car is dead after unplugging at supercharger

    Lots of folks have paid extra for battery upgrades, and some got lucky and upgraded for free. I would totally use all my goodwill to try to make that happen for me. But if per Hank’s comment, if you don’t have air suspension, it’s a pretty big ask to have the service center build you a...

    Roadster 2023

    I think Teslas are the ultimate daily drivers. Garage queen cars with low miles that never had enough mileage to get parts updated: headlights, heater cores, door handles, 90kWh rev A packs, etc., make me sad. I wonder how low a production volume Tesla can justify in keeping a line open...

    So… Highland is out…

    It makes me a little sad to think about the new roadster in the context of FSD Beta. Hopefully it’s like the terrible 80s movie Twins, where all the good stuff goes into one and all the bad stuff goes into the other.

    Nothing about that post has to do with early (vertical screen) adopters.

    FSD v12.x (end to end AI)

    It’s not so bad. I live vicariously through you all. I’d probably be more upset if either 1) everyone thought it was great or 2) I had expected it to work anytime soon when I bought it or 3) I didn’t have some glimmer of hope that Tesla will eventually give up on MCU1 and non interior camera...
