That's one thing that really cheeses me off - the waste :( The high demand for parts is a fair call - it will be a donor for many other cars, so that's good I suppose. But let's face it - 70% of that car will just sit and rot somewhere now.

No other damage apart from what you can see, body panels and some related bits hanging off. The wiring loom didn't help - the part only comes as a complete front section, so they'd have to rewire the entire front - removing a lot of stuff, so labour costs are stupid high. They also said it...

Update: The car has been written off! :mad: I am completely gutted, really upset, I loved this car so much. It was a "good one" after 70k miles, still had no squeaks or rattles And goodbye free supercharging :( Off to the "For Sale" section for me. At least LV are paying out a good fair price.

Yes, Tesla approved, very friendly and helpful bunch - but they are stuck talking to Tesla Technical who can't even provide a part number for some reason. No one can seem to find this indicator wiring loom in their systems?!

So gutted - I had a tyre blow out on my classic and much loved 85D... it made a mess!! Luckily the insurance company have agreed to pay up - but it's been 3 months and the garage fixing it cannot get hold of the parts to fix it. Silly me, no courtesy car either, so no car = grumpy! Any...

Amazing, thanks Tomilett - I'm going to book it in then! Cheers 👍

Same problem for me - 2016 85D - and software 2020.48.37.6 as well. I was considering the MCU upgrade, but unsure that will actually fix the problem? Did you get the upgrade yet Tomilett?? Very interested to hear if it sorted everything. Thanks.

Hi Everyone, My 2016 Model S (85D) is showing the 'Navigation Error' when I try and set a destination. This is a fairly common fault - the SD Card that the maps download to is full up or corrupt so it needs to be replaced. This is different to the eMMC problem (which I've already had done...
