Does anyone know if the 90 kWh batteries degradation issue resolved on Model S 2016.10? Would these 90 kwh batteries have a higher chance of sudden failure than 100kWh or 75kWh batteries? I appreciate the insight.

Is there a way to Noted. Thank you for the reminder, I will try my best to use kWh when asking about tesla battery packs.

Does anyone know about the revisions on the 90kwh batteries? I want to know if the 90kw battery in the car is v1, v2 or v3. How do I tell with only physical access to the car at the dealership. Thanks!

How can I inspect the vehicle at the dealership? Also, is there a way to check the suspension? I heard people got caught up with 8k+ estimates after they just purchased a used model s. Thank you for the advice

Actually it’s a really small hole, smaller than if I would have just used a grease gun. I sprayed it into a cup, let it settle and then used a seperare syringe To inject it.

Thank you, I injected aerosol super lube into the ball joint and it has since been fixed

How is the reliability of 90KW batteries in a facelifted model s 2016 90D relative to other capacities? Did the reliability of batteries in 2016 fluctuate noticeably over the course of the year? Is the reliability between a facelifted 2016 model s 90D very different from a 2018 model s 90D...

I might be getting a 90D soon. Could you please let me know what are the pack issues? I am reluctant because I would be owning it well out of warranty for sure.

Do I need to unscrew anything or take off the tire? I don't have a jack or anything. All I need to do is puncture the boot and inject motor oil inside of it right?

So the worst case situation with greasing the ball joint is 200 dollars to fix an already faulty control arm?

Would supercharging speed taper off as it reaches 100% the same as it would a 75 kwh battery?

My tesla is making squeaking/creaking sounds when the steering wheel is turned and going over a speed bump. I asked tesla if it is possible to grease the ball joint itself. They said no because it is cracked and worn out? The estimate says upper control arms so I assume it is a ball joint issue...

If I charge the car to 100% and it’s software locked, would the battery be degraded because I heard elsewhere that if a battery is software locked it’ll slowly start allowing you to use more capacity to match the amount of degredation. Also how is the reliability between the 75 and 90 battery?

Hello TMC forums! I wanted to ask about a tesla model s 2016 October which was on carfax as a 70d but it has a 90kw battery for sure. Can someone inform me about what happened? I really appreciate any insight. Is there a way to verify in person that it is a 90kw battery if it is software locked?

You’re absolutely correct about that, thank you for reminding me to be cautious. I’ll make sure to do my research and im aware it’s a gamble.
