I am looking to replace my Master Charger for a 2013 Tesla Model S in Southern California, preferably around Los Angeles. I asked Tesla Service in the Los Angeles area already and they do not want to do it if I get the Master Charger elsewhere. ($2385.23 vs ~$500+labor.) Part numbers are...

I am looking to replace my Master Charger for a 2013 Tesla Model S in the San Diego, CA area. I asked Tesla Service in the Los Angeles area already and they do not want to do it if I get the Master Charger elsewhere. ($2385.23 vs ~$500+labor.) Part numbers are 6009278-00-F and 6009278-84-F...

Still no update or undocumented-documentation on the Wi-Fi/Bluetooth chipset?

Hi Forum, I wanted to update you all on this topic with a solution. It is possible to get high-quality, lag-free audio to the Model S (and presumably, Model X and Model 3) speaker system! The only product that I could find that works reliably is the Vast International HiFi-FMT V-FMT212R RDS...

Thank you GaryREM. How did you verify that your phone was using AAC? How do I see this?

I have been trying to get AAC to work over Bluetooth between my Tesla Model S (mid-2013, firmware v8.1 2018.16) and my MacBook Pro (macOS High Sierra 10.13.4; hardware is mid-2014). I followed the instructions on MacRumors to enable AAC (and aptX, which is not supported anyway), but the...

I'm looking for something a little bit better...and more creative. :) Suppose that I bite the bullet and go the FM route. Aside from distortion and poor audio quality, how bad is the lag? Has anyone tried this? Any chance that there is 3.5mm stereo jack to HD radio equipment out there? :p

Passengers in my Model S (2013, fwiw) want to play Nintendo Switch, preferably using the Model S sound system. :) How can this be done? The Switch supports 3.5mm headphone jack out and HDMI out (with dock). However, with the Switch 4.0.0 firmware update, USB Audio devices are supported for...

Giving this thread a bump. There is now more documentation out there about "MCU2", aka Main Computing Unit Version 2, which came out in March 2018. It appears to have 5GHz Wi-Fi (which means at least 802.11n, and quite possibly 802.11ac). There may be Bluetooth 5, but I have not found confirmed...

Any update, detailed confirmation, or teardown, on this topic?

What are the Model 3's Wi-Fi and Bluetooth modules capable of? Model S and Model X are stuck with 2.4GHz 802.11g and Bluetooth 2.1 (I think). Here is to hoping that the Model 3 delivers more modern specifications. Any details on internal manufacturer, chipsets, and versions would be helpful too.

Just found it: Parrot FC6050 W. Source: <https://teslatap.com/undocumented/> 802.11g 2.4GHz and Bluetooth 3.0 only.

Thanks. And does anyone know the specific chipset?

What are the Wi-Fi capabilities of Model S vehicles that are currently being built? When did it change? Any specs on the chipset? I have a June 2013 S and it is stuck in the 802.11 b/g 2.4GHz stone age. I asked about upgrading it, but my local service center responded in the negative. I did not...

Thanks for the tips. I'm looking into these. However the EVamped LED rear console plus a cup holder mount solution looks like it would put the Nintendo Switch a bit too far back for my / the kids' tastes. It actually was at a pretty ideal location when propped up against two water bottles in the...
