Pack Performance and Launch Mode Limits

[hostman]

My car was picked up yesterday and is being dropped off tonight or tomorrow with the loaner battery installed. Teslalog was able to capture them testing with the new battery but app shows "in service." I was told a month and a half to two months for the battery repair in California.

I wonder if whatever components are failing are upgraded to the equivalent in the 100kWh packs. I also wonder if the car will have a different peak output on return.

Maybe even a V3 loophole

I, too, am curious. Also am curious what loaner pack I'm getting ... they are telling me it's still an 85 pack.

I was told that if I do need a loner pack it will be the same part number pack that is currently in my car the V3 1088... pack

I'm a bit anxious to hear of results. Especially from our members here who are due in for service related to the battery.

Aren't you still on 7.1 or am I confusing you with soneone else?

 

[hostman]

Car is back with loaner battery.

I am still on 7.1. But I would one day like to be able to upgrade to the latest firmware. Really I am looking for a stable build to jump to. At the very least, it seems like there are certain battery conditions that may warrant a trip to the SC that I might not know about until I upgrade.

 

[Tech_Guy]

Car is back!! Battery replaced, had a low SOC at pickup so I will get some data tomorrow.

 

[hostman]

Today, 87% charge, Launch mode, Max Battery ready, with loaner pack. I was able to get around the same (440) on my 'broken' pack at roughly the same SoC once the update came through.

 

[davidc18]

what revision is the battery?

 

[hostman]

what revision is the battery?

It appears to be an 85kWh, no idea if there are different versions of that one.

 

[davidc18]

Oops. Missed that.

 

[MrAustraliaTax]

Hold it.
Let me understand this.
Nope, no problem... Car working as normal. Nothing to see.... Move along....

!!!!!!!! Holly Crap, Do NOT Use the Car. It's going to blow up.

I feel this is unfair on Tesla, who are clearly in the process of making it right.


Another way to interpret this is that the car has gone from:

"There is a problem. Say nothing, but force the user to use less power and hope they don't notice."

To

"There is a problem. Ask the user nicely to use less power and get the car fixed."

Just wait until the loaner pack goes into reduced power mode. You'll need a loaner for your loaner.

Today I was able to test the car at 95%-80%.

With max battery power on and ready the car achieved 480-485Kw which is still down 40 hp from my cars original performance. Checking the cars max Amps it tops out at 1500-1530 Amps and flatlined there when I would expect my car to achieve 500-511 Kw and 1600-1600 Amps as it did before the 8.0 update in September.

These current numbers matchup with what I saw at my first power reduction in September when I first contacted Tesla and other forum members about this. Turning max battery off only drops the performance 4-7Kw, so its like the max battery button does noting, previously at 7.1 software it would add 20-30 Kw more power. Its definitely still limited somehow as the max pack Amps flatline at 1500Amps. Ive contacted my SM and am awaiting a response... @JonMc the update did not fully restore my cars power.

Perhaps you're still hitting the DU limit.

 

[Oday]

Could you clarify a bit what you're looking for?

I need tbe software and the hardware to diagnosis tesla ...because i have service center in jordan and we don't have anyone repair tesla cars ....

Do you know anyone can help me ??

This is on the loaner battery?

. Actually this is on a new battery. I suspect the want the engineers to look at my old battery... To see if the actual condition of the battery matches up with the software limits they set?!

Sorry if I missed it up thread, but is this a V3 unit? I wonder if the BMS stays with the car or battery. Maybe that makes a difference.
