    Computer issues MCU? Center Display Unavailable

    Happened to me today. Got 2020.32.3 update yesterday on my 2016 P90D S. Drove once and parked. When I returned an hour later MCU was frozen and driver display had “Center display unavailable” and couldn't drive. MCU reset took longer than normal and everything worked afterwards, but “Center...

    Rattle noise coming from front Air Suspension (2017-18)

    Still trying to get some specs on the new part, 1067361-77-C. The best subjective test I can do is using a speed bump. The front, with the new air springs, travels more and is "bouncy", while the back is firm with less travel. I'm wondering if the adaptive air spring module replacement...

    Rattle noise coming from front Air Suspension (2017-18)

    It's interesting that we have different experiences. I wonder if our cars had the same air springs to begin with. Also, it would be helpful to have specs to compare. My searches came up empty. Mine being built in early 2016, did Tesla change specs through the years or use different components...

    Rattle noise coming from front Air Suspension (2017-18)

    Update: The new part, 1067361-77-C, is much softer than what came on my P90DL. The suspension in the front is now very cushy, almost Cadillac like, while the rear is still stiff. It's nice while on bumpy roads, but I didn't know fixing the rattle would change the suspension stiffness and I'm...

    Rattle noise coming from front Air Suspension (2017-18)

    I got the 1067361-77-C replacements on my P90DL and so far (500 miles) I haven't heard any rattling. I've had the rattling for the past 3 years, so it's a pleasant change. They do feel different though. Maybe a bit softer. Does anyone know if the spring rate is different for this new part...

    Low pitch rattle coming from front - no fix available?

    I had the same rattle when my car was new. Best replicated at low speeds on slightly broken surfaces. It was fixed at my first annual inspection by replacing an air suspension component. I've heard the same rattle on 2 loaners including a Model S 100D brand new and right off the truck. My...

    Front vibration when accelerating - accelerometer graphs....

    Agreed. I pull out onto a road with brisk traffic that is within the geo-location radius of my driveway. I set the air suspension to high for the driveway so it's on high at this intersection. If I manually lower the suspension at this intersection, I have to remember to raise it again for my...

    19" vs 20" pics?

    For a "winter" set, I went with the TST 19" matte black and stock size "245/45R19" Michelin AS/3+ tires. These tires are ultra high performance all-season with really good dry/wet traction and good snow/ice ratings for an all-season. I like the matte black because it matches the tire color...

    4% drop in SOC while parked 2 hours.

    Thanks. I just tested it out. I'm seeing all 96 bricks registering a voltage, so that's a good start.

    4% drop in SOC while parked 2 hours.

    Thanks Sorka. I do have it turned on though I don't expect it to pull much power. It wouldn't even need to activate the compressor as it could just pull in fresh air. If that was it, it would mean I had 2 issues (possibly 3). 1. overheat protection pulling 1.5kW 2. Charge controller not...

    4% drop in SOC while parked 2 hours.

    Just the standard Tesla app. Though I can't imagine it (or any app) pulling 1.5 kW :)

    4% drop in SOC while parked 2 hours.

    I recently took a 200 mile trip with a 30 minute charge and 2 hour stop in between. I began by charging to 100% SOC and leaving immediately. My first stop was at an 80 amp charger, where I charged for 30 minutes from around 30% about 36% SOC. I drove to next destination and parked with a 32%...

    "Thumping" during 1st few cold accelerations?

    What's your air suspension height? Mine did this while on high, but not on normal. SC replaced half shaft. I thought it was happening, while "cold", but it was geolocation air suspension for my driveway. When I left "cold", air suspension was on high.

    Michelin A/S 3 feedback at 8,000 miles

    Yesterday it warmed up (high of 85 F), and I got 309 wh/m mostly on the highway between 70 and 75 mph with a few quick overtakes and one pit stop. I was initially a little concerned about this tire not being LRR, but I can live with those numbers if they hold. About half way through the trip...

    Michelin A/S 3 feedback at 8,000 miles

    The A/S 3+ has relatively good (7.9 good) snow and ice ratings on tirerack compared to the A/S 3 (4.8 fair).
