    Cabin Overheat Protection Question

    Hello. Question regarding the Cabin Overheat Protection feature. I have a 2012 Model S P85 Signature (90k mi). I have noticed that for my cabin overheat protection, I only have the option for 105deg. I see/read that others have 3 degree options. Anyone familiar with this that can shed further...

    Original owners of 2012/2013 Model S w/ 85 kWh pack: Has your main pack been replaced?

    Can I ask what you got for your '13 Tesla (w/ details (i.e., miles, options))? Did it take awhile (being that your warranty was pretty much over) to sell? Mine is the 'first edition' '12 MS w/ 50kmi Performance Version (pretty much all the upgrades except the moon roof). A purchased the car last...

    Original owners of 2012/2013 Model S w/ 85 kWh pack: Has your main pack been replaced?

    Can't say that I'm enjoying my car (in the piece of mind sense). I bought it used with only a few months of the warranty left. Really wish I had done more research on Teslas and their actual long term quality and costs of repair (specifically on expensive parts like the drive unit and battery...

    Original owners of 2012/2013 Model S w/ 85 kWh pack: Has your main pack been replaced?

    Update: For my charging issue, it did turned out to be an onboard charge(r) issue. I was unaware of this but my 2012 P85 Performance w/ 50k miles (not sure what other cars/years are the same) has '2' onboard chargers - an 80A and a 40A. Well it looks like the 80A went bad. Couldn't really...

    Original owners of 2012/2013 Model S w/ 85 kWh pack: Has your main pack been replaced?

    So I dropped of my car at the Tesla SC yesterday. They are currently diagnosing the issue (at a cost of $155/hr). I brought up the 'coincidental timing' of the issue appearing right after the latest software update. Not surprisingly they said that they're sure if had/has nothing to do with it...

    Original owners of 2012/2013 Model S w/ 85 kWh pack: Has your main pack been replaced?

    My 2012 MS P85 has 50k miles on it. Not sure if it is related (although I'm starting to really to suspect) but after the last software update about a week ago, I'm now having problems charging at home w/ 240V 40A. The car is frequently being interrupted, stating that the max amperage is being...

    "Center Display Unavailable" message

    If by IC you mean the center cluster display, yep, I did that too and it did not work (although as previously mentioned, the MCU did come up successfully). I called my local SC earlier and they say that they've never seen it before (they always say they're not familiar with my issues) and...

    "Center Display Unavailable" message

    Hi everyone. Just purchased a 2012 Model S back in April 2020 with (at the time) had 40k miles (now at 45k miles). In that time, I've had the rear drive unit replaced once for the 'whirring' sound (under warranty). A few weeks ago I had to get a second drive unit replacement for another reason...

    How to explain to SC that EMMC daughterboard needs replacement

    Hi All, new to the group. Purchased a 2012 Model S P85 Performance back in late April '20. Only had 40k mi on it and I've added 5k mi since then. Regarding the eMMc issue, I've only experienced one case that the MCU went black and required reboot and 'maybe' a couple of other things (probably so...
