    Wiki Consolidated eMMC Thread (MCU repair) (Black Center Screen)

    That's what I decided to do. Not worth the 500$ upgrade for now as it is fast enough for me, faster with the new eMMC. Will have to do something when 3G goes away.

    Exact same thing my SC told me.

    BMW i3

    Correct. This is Model 3 and Y. Tesla Model 3 was the best selling car in all of California during this period. Better than any Honda, Toyota mode.

    Preventive eMMC replacement on MCU1

    Improved Trunk lighting - Is there demand?

    M My wife's 2012 Ford Explorer and daughter's 2013 Ford Focus Electric both do this. The kids like it.

    Best 19 tires replacement

    I went with the Conti Extreme Contact 06 and like them a lot. The Pirelli Cinturato P7's are very well rated. Interestingly they are made in Mexico and the Contis in Germany, Pirelli rated to 149, the Contis 186mph (not that it matters in a Tesla). The Pirellis are 2 lbs heavier .

    Cable organizer?

    Wow. That looks really awkward to use. Why would you design something in which you coil the cord behind the UMC. The Tesla version looks much more practical. This one doesn't provide any support for the UMC.
