    Wiki Consolidated eMMC Thread (MCU repair) (Black Center Screen)

    4 years warranty it is ... New MCUv1 has longer lead time ... So went for re-manufactured MCUv1 ... about 2 weeks lead time. In due course, MCUv2 will also become an option it seems. But not now. Thank you all for sharing your knowledge and experience. Much appreciated

    Wiki Consolidated eMMC Thread (MCU repair) (Black Center Screen)

    Thanks for sharing your experience. I feel better. But ... whether it is Tesla or any other prestigious/luxury brand, I have no intention of being light on them when they let me down. 4 weeks! Yes - exceptional circumstances; but communication could have been a lot better. Also, knowing how...

    Post #310 also shared this link ...thanks both. I have brought it to SC attention. Perhaps 4 years warranty applies to new parts (rather than remanufactured ones)

    Wiki Consolidated eMMC Thread (MCU repair) (Black Center Screen)

    Update ... My questions and SC replies ... 1) parts are brand new ... both MCU and screen ... not refurbished ... right? The replacement MCU is a re-manufactured Unit 2) warranty should be 4 years ... why was I told 1 year...

    Pretty emphatic no. There was no suggestion of "not now, but perhaps later"

    Thank you for the info. Here is the exchange with S Thanks ... Will do so. Thought they have made it clear (after I posed them explicit question) that the MCU revision is re-manufactured rather than new + comes with just 1 year warranty (4 years warranty applies at car level ... rather than...

    2015 ... not 2016 (typo) ... Also Tesla SC has confirmed it is 1 year warranty without conveying any info about MCU revision being new or refurbished ... Interesting really. Lots of questions when I contact them tomorrow.

    Makes a big difference for the entire segment of users who have old hardware and thus ruled out for MCUv2 upgrade. Once there is awareness among the early adopters ...then sufficient consumer/PR pressure can be exerted on Tesla to make that small change (32GB)on MCUv1 revisions.

    Wiki Consolidated eMMC Thread (MCU repair) (Black Center Screen)

    Please find below what I posted at Tesla forum ... short answer is old hardware of 2016 Model S does not give us the option of MCUv2. So we have to live with 8GB for another 4 years or so ... and then pay 1500 pounds again (if we get it done by Tesla) ... My current MCU part number is...

    There is wear and tear on many parts ... Unavoidable for brakes, tires, etc. .. and also MCU (finite write cycles). I agree up to this point. By putting in 32GB rather than 8GB eMMC you know very well the effort and cost of doing that for Tesla versus the favourable impact on all owners (just a...

    I agree with the general thrust of your comment ... but Tesla is certainly culpable for not going for 16 or 32 GB eMMC to protect customers from experiencing this pain/danger every 4 years or so. A non-brainer in my view.
