Thanks all. Yes, it's been about 3 months since I last investigated it but, long story short, I went to 3 different SC's and after they dug into it, all said the car could be licensed for SuC but it wasn't the post initial sale cost of $2500, for MY car it was $12K and that was strictly a software license, no new hardware required, no new battery pack, no uncapping the 40K sw limit (that my testing has shown no longer exists, if it ever did in the first place!).
I found another post on TMC from a guy in CA who was told the same for his car and he even uploaded the estimate showing the $12K charge. This includes FUSC (if you consider $12K "free") which I don't need, and told them that.
In the 6+ months I've owned the car I've only had to leave it home twice due to lack of range, third time tomorrow, only because I can't do a quick SuC to "top off" the battery enough for a return trip home. So it really hasn't been a big problem, just an annoyance that Tesla has no interest in helping me out.
All I asked for was to pay $2500 for a "right to use" SuC PAYG license to use the SuC network on a PAYG basis but they said that wasn't an option, $12K for FUSC or nothing! Don't they want to get rid of FUSC cars?!?!? WTF are they then making this my only option other than to price it high enough I won't do it and will stop pestering them about it! I'll admit that that tactic worked!
On a positive note, my ICE mechanic checked out the speed sensor and said it was dry as a bone, no signs of coolant leakage on my LDU for now. I'll have it checked every 5K miles in the hopes of catching it if/when it does start leaking but before it destroys the electronics. If I catch it, what then? Do they rebuild them? I've read a little bit about it and it seems they mostly all get replaced with "U" revs of the LDU.
And on another positive note, the $13 Tesla Diag to OBD II cable I bought off eBay arrived today, and it works with the cheap $8 Bluetooth OBD II adapter I bought a couple of years ago for my ICE car. I bought scan-my-tesla app and gathered a ton of cool looking data.... That I have *no idea* what any of it means!!!!!
D'OHHHHHH!!!! Guess I've now got a lot of research and learning to do!
