FYI...my MCU-1 died on me just the other day and i had to replace it. I asked over an over for the upgraded mcu-2. I was told over and over it’s not available...even after Musk said it would be available a year or two ago. So they gave me a refurbished mcu-1, which cost $1600.00 after...

I agree you have a valid point. However, if I understood correctly, Tesla is reselling a car I would think it would be with all the parts/options it originally had.

Sorry...that su*ks:(

I call BS!!! The way I read the new warranty, short and simple, is that Tesla ultimately determines what and what’s not covered by saying it’s a software induced issue or it’s normal degradation. I love driving an EV, but I will never buy another car from this company mainly because of the...

I’m not an attorney, but for ICE vehicles whatever package came with the original car follows the car...not the owner. I would think it would be the same for an EV. Tesla’s pulling same game with downgrading the battery capacity without notifying owners. It’s called batterygrate and their is...

I always thought the number on the car represented the kWh. So then I chewed the SC out for nothing...LOL.

So do you think it is degradation? This equates to a loss of 9% or 22miles. It dropped 10-miles overnight after the download.

Ran349, While the graph looks good, when I use the formula listed on the original post (1page) and canbus info, it reflects 72kWh pack not 85kWh. Am I wrong?

Prior to the software update, it maxed out at 258, then right after the download it maxed out at 248. I typically only charge 80%.

Ok...I tried it again at 100% charge. Thanks Chasser, Bignik for your input.

JRP3, Can you please expand on what you mean by “is happening”. Did Tesla officially acknowledge capping our batteries and that’s why they are replacing them? If so, where is this info coming from?

So I did my first scan. If I’m interpreting this correctly, my cells look consistent but I’m definitely capped.

I would of respected Tesla more if they told us they were capping it upfront, and then how and when they would take corrective action by repairing or replacing the battery.

Great news. I’m willing to ship my car to CA, if they would replace the battery...lol

I have the same issue. It’s Tesla causing it. On some older cars, Tesla capped the charging rates. Theirs a class action suit on this. If I’m correct, you’re rated mile we’re reduced as well and Tesla’s response is to say it’s normal degradation.

Fury, I’m in the same boat as you and others. I’ve ran the formula and ran my diagnostics using TM-Spy for the first time, and I to get around 72kWh. When I argued this point with my SC, all they said was, and I’m paraphrasing, the methods I used to come to my conclusion are not methods...

Hi all. I’m trying to confirm my voltage readings using TM-Spy (for Apple) I connected can3 harness to the dongle to the OBDLink Mx+, then I opened the TM SPY app. The app just continues to say “searching”. I deselected my WiFi setting so that everything is in Bluetooth mode. Any ideas of...

Does anyone know what the latest status of the class action suit is and NHTSA? Or is this going to be so long that we’d be onto our next car by then...so damn angry.

Yes. Your correct. Thanks.

I just double checked. You’re correct. Mine is set to rated and my wife is set to ideal.

Here’s something strange...what are your thoughts? My car (2015 S 85D) is currently charged to 78%, which reads 194 rated miles. My wife uses the car very rarely, however she created a profile for herself. I just noticed when switching the profile setting between her and mine, the rated miles...

That su*ks

Oh...when I read their canned responses, I just want to kick someone in the teeth. You should be receiving an email from Tesla shortly say “As requested, your appointment has been canceled” or similar language.

So after requesting another look at my battery, I received the following canned response: “Good news! The diagnostic team has reviewed your concerns and determined that a service visit will not be necessary. Using remote data from your Model S determined -“ Afterwards i received the following...

Thanks. I did read it all the way through. Based on that, I’m going to first have Tesla confirm, which doubt they will, that my car was or was no capped. I ran the formula that was stated on the first page and my final result was 74KWh. If the formula is correct then my car appears to be...

Question about degradation. I ordered the obd and dongle to test my 2015 85D’s cells, which I assume is capped. My car is rated to charge up to 270 miles @ 100% charge, which charged up to 258 as of this past May-June. Since then it charges up to 248-250, which I assume it’s because of the...

Interesting that they owned up. I’m bringing my car in next week so they can thoroughly run more diagnostics on the battery. Long story short, when I was on the phone with Tesla and raised the battery issue...they indicated that they weren’t aware of the issues

When you bring them the logs, do you think they’ll even look at them and take you concerns seriously? The reason why I ask is because I, bringing my car in next week for a diagnostic on the battery and my blank screen when I press on my release notes. Tesla constantly throughs it in our faces...

Do you by any chance now what “API Error - Data Request Timeout” means in the Teslafi log?

I’ll double check but I don’t recall seeing anything to indicate it was an upgrade.

Great job!!!!

Hmm...interesting. The window sticker on my 2015 listed the battery at $10,000 (US) I would of thought the price would of gone down do to economies of scale.

I’d greatly appreciate it if you can let me know where you got the TM-Spy for the iPhone. Thanks.

Assistant needed. I know how to work on an ICE with no problem, but an EV no. I want to test my battery’s cells, so I’m buying the OBDLink MX+; using an android phone to download TM-Spy software; and, depending what you all say, I’ll buy the dongle. My question is can I used the OBD port...

No. I like the car but I am so frustrated and fed up with Tesla with their canned responses (if they respond) and their lack of customer concern. I’ve complained multiple times to no avail. The latest is I charged my 2015 S85D to 97% (wouldn’t charge to 100%), which is rated for 270 miles. It...

Thanks very much. Any idea why when I press on the release notes I get a blank screen?

I’m having the same problem also. I’ve had 2 updates and after it was done, the release notes were blank.

Sorry for the delayed response, but no I have not.

I’m new, so I hope this come across correctly. I am extremely frustrated with the canned responses we get when we reach out to the CS to register our complaints. We buy a car that’s supposed to have a specific range and then Tesla arbitrarily caps it so the battery supposedly doesn’t get...

I’m stunned that this functionality is not available for these cars.

i asked Tesla to confirm if any software updates reduced the capacity, and, like I thought, they would not confirm it. From what I read Tesla reduced the charging capacity because of the batteries that caught fire. If this is accurate, there’s a defect in the battery and should be replaced...

No. I have not. I keep getting the same runaround and canned responses.

I am having the same problem and getting the same canned responses from Tesla...it’s extremely frustrating. However mine is not as bad as yours. I have 64,000 miles and have a 9% degradation loss. The main problem I am having is that 5% degradation occurred within the past 3-4 months ago...
