    I retrofit MCU2, IC2, Tuner2, and FSD Computer into my HW2.0 Car

    I think the best bet is to simply do an in place upgrade of the processor. There is one that's slightly faster than intel made but I doubt we would see any real improvement. If someone had the money to commission a new one from intel that was backwards compatible but faster, maybe more cores or...

    OnBoard Charger Failure & Repair UK/Europe

    Sorry for not updating this earlier. I've found the part number for the fuses. https://www.mouser.co.uk/ProductDetail/Littelfuse/0HEV040.ZXBD?qs=aGgfWYEhH7ltKVEgpL9Fyw%3D%3D Other sources are likely available but this was the easiest I could find. Replacing it lead to it blowing again so...

    I retrofit MCU2, IC2, Tuner2, and FSD Computer into my HW2.0 Car

    The main issue you'll face is that if that AP unit hasn't been installed in a car for over 3months, the certs in it will be invalid and you'll not be able to use it anyway. The units aren't too pricey from Tesla and you can install it yourself and then log the service call for them to correct...

    Model X: Average Wh/mile Tracker

    That's just under a year of the cars usage I think. It would be nice if I could see from the logs when I reset it. If I'd got Teslamate sorted again(pi shortage issues) I'd know when it was 🤣🙈🤦‍♂️

    I'm just wondering if anyone on here understands how the european/worldwide 3phase gen3 AC Onboard Charging unit works for the Model S & X. I've replaced mine and it was working fine all night but now the first phase refuses to accept any input voltage. I replaced it as the previous unit had...

    Air Compressor Replacement + Air Line & Air Shocks inspection DIY

    I can confirm from my own experience that most service centres are well aware of the retrofit of the filling valve and have onsite nitrogen for this. But you have to request it and there is a small charge for it. It's well worth doing though and I've added it to my list of things to ask for...

    I retrofit MCU2, IC2, Tuner2, and FSD Computer into my HW2.0 Car

    This to me suggests they want to downgrade the Autopilot module from version 3 to version 2. Or am I missing something here?

    Has anyone removed rear seats in a model X 6 seater?

    It would be worth asking Tesla, but some service centres are more helpful than others. The config change is simple enough and they would just barge 30-60mins labour for it.

    Has anyone removed rear seats in a model X 6 seater?

    You'd need the floor piece to cover it and then Tesla service or after market to change the config using the Tesla diagnostic tool so the config is consistent for future updates.

    Front radar issue

    Has anyone bought an hour of ToolBox 3 access and recalibrated their own radar? Is it a really quick procedure as I'd like to try it on mine before buying a new unit? I seemingly only get about 12months out of them before they fail again 😥

    I retrofit MCU2, IC2, Tuner2, and FSD Computer into my HW2.0 Car

    This is for the APE unit. Also in Europe, maybe the hardware is slightly different, but I'm not the only one who's come across this. And even had it on a salvage unit that was shipped from Florida to me(not a flood damage car but collision)

    Front radar issue

    If you unlug the front radar, or a parking sensor, on a car that came equipped with them from the factory, you'll find that all DAS is disabled.

    I retrofit MCU2, IC2, Tuner2, and FSD Computer into my HW2.0 Car

    They definitely expire a lot quicker than that. I had a brand new Tesla provided unit. Fitted it, was fine for a few weeks, swapped to another unit and put it on the shelf. Tried the unit again a few months later and it wasn't playing. Tesla refunded me for the unit and some other bits as they...

    It might be worth checking out other cars where you can get adapter kits and see if a manufacturer of them would be interested. The L322 range rover had some I believe and the Semi Skimmed one.

    I retrofit MCU2, IC2, Tuner2, and FSD Computer into my HW2.0 Car

    Afraid a used one won't work. You can get away with this within about 90-120days of the vehicle last being online, BUT the certs have a very short life in the units and when they expire, even a Tesla service centre can't renew them. Warning to anyone who's car goes fully offline for a long...

    Front brake upgrade options 2016-2021

    As I can't seem to find this I thought I'd start a thread on it to collate info as we went. First off EBC seem to have some options. I've messaged them to ask about the Red Stuff as they would be a slight upgrade and offer less dust hopefully. Ideally I'd like to find reasonable priced 2 piece...

    Experiencing Suspension Issues and Air Spring Leak Error - Seeking Advice

    I'd get the soapy water test on the go with the front air springs asap. If one is leaking the compressor is working harder for longer and getting hot very often. This will lead to it also failing not long after the strut is replaced. I know this from experience.

    2017 MX alternative parts for front upper control arms

    One thing I found with the control arms is that it's not always the ball and socket joint that squeeks. Try an Anti Friction spray grease into the two rubber bush areas are the other end of the arm. This helped mine and lasts until a good few days of rain washes it out.

    MICHELIN CROSSCLIMATE 2 Real life experience

The fronts are great, they have about 11k on them, great wear, noise isn't as bad as the CC SUV I had...

    I retrofit MCU2, IC2, Tuner2, and FSD Computer into my HW2.0 Car

    Please keep us posted! An MCU3 upgrade would be epic or MCU4 🤣 I did also get told if a batch of 1000 processors was ordered, intel can make custom ones... Wouldn't be cheap but a good way to get a heck of a lot more oomph from the units if they could be desoldered and solder on the new ones...

    Does that include the aw shoes as well? Is it per chance off a crash damaged vehicle? You may find the included sensors need to be removed as the AP1 sensors fitted to your X will use different connectors to the ones on the 22-23 model.

    A note on the desiccant, I believe it's in the intake elbow part numbers 1027931-00-B 1027931-00-C Which can be bought over the counter and is separate to the compressor itself. I bought a unit yesterday from Tesla and it doesn't come with either a replacement due or relay. Replaced my unit in...
