After driving fine for 6 months, the error came back. We have replaced the speed sensor and wire. It seems the PRND issue occurs after the car idle for few days. The error is attached. Any thoughts ?

Thanks. I assume you are in Canada ? i wish I have tesla mechanic here in Los Angeles area that can help me.

I have the same error. I would be interested if you are able to fix it. I swapped the speed sensor and cable, error still persists.

I have 2013 Model S (190k) that the suspension/shock is getting really firm. It started to make noise. Is there an independent shop that can replace shock/suspension ? I tried Tony at EVfixme but they are really busy. Much appreciated if you know anyone in Los Angeles area that is able to...

I am ref to the drive unit replacement warranty from Tesla. The original drive unit warranty was 8 years/unlimited miles.

You probably right. It is the corrosion on loose ground. Will see……

Took the car to Tony. Nothing wrong with drive unit. It seems the problem was related to loose ground as in addition to PRND error, there are many other errors related to break light etc. Tony cleaned the connection and asked me to drive around and see the error code will disappear. I will keep...

Thanks for the input. This makes sense. I let you know this week.

I am kinda surprised when the SC told me the drive unit. I told them that the DU has been replaced in 2017 due to noise/buzzing issue. Do we as customer has to pay $8K every 4 years ? I finally get on hold with Tony EvFixMe and made apt with him. I will let you know the outcome.

4 years 50k

The car stopped while driving (in the stop sign) and PRND turned to red. It re-started by itself. It occurred twice within 3 weeks period

I don’t think I have the gut to DIY. The drive unit has been replaced once in 2017 around 90k under warranty. The car still drives fine but I am debating to spend $$$ versus just selling the car. I called Tony at EVFixMe but he has not responded yet.

I have model 2013 Model S that the Drive Unit likely needs replacement (per service center). The car has 180k miles. Do you know independent service center in SCAL that can perform this ? SC quoted me close to $8k. Much appreciated of your help

Yeah. The FM tuner is not a big deal for me. I would like to keep the premium connectivity free.
