Happened a few times to my 2015 p85d shortly after the MCU2 upgrade. Dual button reboot fixed it each time. Hasn't happened in the last few months so I'm hoping it's something that has been addressed through a software update.

I suspect it does....

Not only do you get new displays, but the computers behind the displays are also upgraded leading to much better responsiveness!

I've got a 2015 p85d, battery and motor warranty is about to expire (november). I've been contemplating this, and have come to the conclusion that I still love the car, and it's in great shape. I'm keeping it, and banking some cash for future expenses, which will without doubt be way less than...

My understanding is that if Tesla ends up owning a car w/ SCO1, they pull it off. If it never was owned (beyond initial manufacture) by Tesla, it stays.

No question, do the MCU upgrade, it's well worth the $!

I've heard that there is a thick liquid that can leak out and make a mess below the screen that can be difficult to clean up. Perhaps someone who has had it happen can chime in. I had my screens updated, cost 1800, very worth it because not only are the screens nicer, the computers are better...

I have to say I have the same vintage MS, and my experience has not been at all similar. Hope you find something you like better....

Bought my 2015 P85D 4 years ago, from Tesla, with a 4 year warranty (in addition to the remainder of the 8 year Battery & DU warranty). My 4 year warranty just ran out, and the 8 year Bat & DU runs out in November. Did a fair amount of thinking on this, mostly on whether or not to trade it in...

Quote: "I'm very nervous that even after getting into my first one (barely), I'd be hit with a motor or battery failure or HUGE repair that I simply can't afford". I think you've answered your own question. My advice would be that if you need a car at this point, buy something cheap and take...

Yay! I also just installed and it appears (after a very short test) to be fixed! :cool: :)

And I leave mine in insane mode! 😁

That's good to know, thanks!

I wonder if it was a nosecone and he bought one of the after market psuedo facelift bumpers?

So the problem your facing is that it's an expensive car that is going (gone?) off warranty. It could be just fine, but it also could end up being expensive. Potential large expenditures are battery and drive units, less expensive (but not trivial) are things like displays, suspension etc...

Lots of videos on youtube, better than I could do :)

And it's just what I had hoped, and a bit more. The clarity of the screens is much improved, speed of map updates vastly better, workable internet browser, faster and better voice commands. What I hadn't expected was a significant improvement in quality for the sound system (I've got the UHFS...

The fact that it vaporized the rodent should be warning enough! 😆

I had this happen when backed in, pulled the lower rear facia off....

According to Tesla: "You cannot cancel a software update once it has started the install phase."

I thought you indicated somewhere in the above thread that you mileaged out of the DU/Bat warranty last October?

I bought a 2015 (nov) P85D right at 4 years ago from Tesla, with a 4 year (which is about to expire) warranty (battery / motors warrantied until Nov). It's been a great car, very few problems all covered by Tesla (most by mobile which is nice since I live a fair distance from a TSC). With my...

2015 P85D with all season radials; I find the MS to be excellent in snow and ice. I do still need to know how to drive on snow and ice, don't expect to be able to maintain any speed I want despite the conditions....

Have to keep in mind the tax implications of either option

I purchased my 2015 MS P85D (11/15 build) in April 2019 from Tesla (3 yr lease return, 27K mi, now has 60k). Came with a 4 yr warranty (in addition to what is remaining on the 8 year battery & drive train warranty. So in April 2023 my 4 year warranty will expire (time flies!), and in Nov 2023...

It's actually just about invisible, replaces an existing cap on the mirror and doesn't look at all like a dash cam

No answer for you, but curious how you access that information (louvers settings)?

In defense of the S (also having come from an S4 (mine had the V8) ) the S4 is quite a bit smaller, so I would expect it to feel a good bit more nimble than the S.

Especially as much beef as we eat, probably have a lot of cowhide as a byproduct, use it or throw it away...

Perhaps the fact that you didn't unlock the 60 resulted in the 40 lasting much longer!

Moral of the story, don't pressure wash the door handles!

Well it's a wrap, but I think you could find a similar paint

It's a computer, have you tried turning it off and on again?

I specifically got 19's instead of 21's (even though the 21's look better) because of this issue

Yep, me too. I did also put some time into planning before departure.

Cant buy it from Tesla?

When I wrapped my 2015, I wrapped the nosecone too, hard to tell in this picture as the green is so dark it almost appears black in some lighting.

Does a 22 model S have any type of auto/assisted open/close on the console?

What are you using to view battery module status?

I had several errors on my 2015 P85D after eMMC replacement. Had to bring the car back in. They replaced the eMMC board (apparently the one they put in was bad). All is fine now. Overall I've had relatively few problems w/ my car (~60K mi) and when I have had problems, I have had good...

Quite a few on ebay: https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2380057.m570.l1311&_nkw=tesla+chademo+adapter&_sacat=0

I've been very happy with my 19" TSportline TSS Wheels, the look of arachnids w/out 21".

Have your rebooted the displays (AKA have you tried turning it off and on again)? The two displays boot separately, one by pressing and holding both scroll wheels on the steering wheel, the other by pressing and holding the upper buttons on the wheel.

Might be time to get a foam cannon!

I think this can happen even on rotors that are otherwise in good shape. If the rotors got hot due to heavy use, then drove through some water, viola! warped rotors.

Comparing what you got for your car a year ago isn't a fair comparison for today's prices....

Finished! Went pretty well, my biggest problem being contamination (dust) getting under the wrap. Got better as it went and still have a good bit of wrap for fixing any issues that might arise. All in all I'm quite pleased!
