    MCU2 upgrade for AP1 cost?

    I am considering getting the MCU2 upgrade for my wife for XMAS on her 2013 MS 85 but it appears to have disappeared from the service Other menu. Am I missing something and if not, how did you request the upgrade?

    Anyone else get random frunk latch warnings?

    I have a 2020 Model S and I get the warning when the car sits in the sun for a while and goes away after about 10 miles of driving. It is a little surprising to me the car will allow driving although autopilot and cruise control is disabled. I will be taking it in for service in when I return to...

    Drive unit replacement worth it?

    I agree with you. My guess is the remanufactured drive units have a significantly lower life than new drive units. Generally, when you purchase a remanufactured device there is a statement the device has been remanufactured to meet the original manufactured specifications. I have seen no such...

    Drive unit replacement worth it?

    My point was that I had a 2 year old replacement unit that failed, which was well below my expectation for a part that originally came with a 8 year warranty. I feel I got a substandard repair and I don't think that is an unreasonable expectation. The comment from the manager that their only...

    Drive unit replacement worth it?

    I would understand this if my car was a Kia or Toyota but for such a high end vehicle I would think they would be more conscious of their customer experience. When we purchased our Tesla it was new, exciting and unique and the customer service we got was exemplary, now we barely get a return...

    Drive unit replacement worth it?

    I have a 2013 Model S 85 with 73K miles and I am now looking at my third drive unit. Got the May not restart and reduced performance warnings and took it in to Tesla with an estimate of $7600 for a new drive unit. Since the last replacement was less than 2 years ago and under 15K miles I asked...

    Why can’t I just plug in and have it automatically charge?!

    Unfortunately I have never been convinced the MCU2 upgrade would fix my problems. Normally the display comes on immediately when I enter the car so no minute delay. About 10% of the time it will not come on at all but will respond to a soft reset (pressing both wheels) and about 10% of the time...

    Why can’t I just plug in and have it automatically charge?!

    I tried this mode when it first came out ( I don't remember what release it was) and could not get it to work correctly. I always started charging immediately when I got home even though that was a peak time (4 pm to 8 pm). Interestingly when I look at the Charge stats it knows the times it...

    Why can’t I just plug in and have it automatically charge?!

    We have been having this problem for over a year now. We have set the scheduled charge to start at 11:00 pm well into the cheap electricity time and with plenty of time to completely charge the car. What we have observed is that some of the software updates appear to reset this to scheduled...

    eMMC recall vs. MCU2 Upgrade

    I will see if I can scan the recall letter and post it. Yes, I understand the recall is free and can be done separately from the MCU upgrade or the radio upgrade. My question was regarding the MCU upgrade since the benefits of the MCU upgrade seem to apply to functions my car does not have, for...

    eMMC recall vs. MCU2 Upgrade

    I have a 2013 Model S and have just received my recall notice asking me to come in for the recall. When I scheduled my service I got a notice about the infotainment upgrade. It appears to me that since I have an older model Model S none of the upgrade features really applies to me and I lose my...

    Center Console on 2013 Model S

    I know this seems like a dumb question but I was wondering if the center console on my wife's 2013 Model S opens? This is the console under the cup holders and the sliding arm rests. It seems a large area and could have storage space but I cannot figure out how it would open or if it opens.
