Full disclosure, on this. When Sirius Satellite Radio first launched (this was many years before Sirius and XM merged into one company), they were trying to get customers. This was hard for them because just the addon hardware (3 different boxes at the time) to receive the service was over...

Its never a bad thing to admit your ignorance on a subject. It sounds like you're not aware of the business model or the customer base that uses the service, but its very much a viable business. SiriusXM had $8.95 billion in gross revenue (total sales) with $1.25 billion in net income...

I bought a Sirius lifetime subscription for $240 somewhere around 2001 or 2003. Why should I stop listening to it when its been paid for for over 20 years?

I find the sound quality better, but for me that wasn't the biggest factor for wanting receiver vs streaming. With the receiver you control the channels from the car's display and from the steering wheel controls. I don't have to try and handle a phone touchscreen while driving nor try to read...

Can I ask what you paid for these parts are from the Tesla service center without any installation costs?

Did they try the same thing with "slip start" turned on? It sounds like its designed for exactly the conditions they're testing. "To allow the wheels to spin at a limited speed, you can enable Slip Start. Slip Start can be enabled at any speed, however it is less effective at higher speeds."...

I'll also add that if you're looking for the low effort (but not as optimal) solution, you can just put the antenna inside the back window on the back deck. The speaker grills are ferrous so the magnet sticks to them. Its not perfect and now and then I'll lose signal, but its so infrequent...

Lifetime SiriusXM subscription successfully transferred to Tesla SiriusXM tuner I don't know how useful this will be to others, but wanted to share in the info in case it was. Afer the fairly recent Tesla software change that allowed the Tesla OEM tuner to work on Ryzen, I threw a paid monthly...

Do you have Sentry Mode footage of this break occurring?

The posts about building a custom mount for the antenna got me thinking. Along those lines I had a broken SiriusXM antenna in my e-waste bin, and fished it out and dissembled it. I wanted to share my data in case others are also interested. Under the sticker is a metal plate with the magnet...

Sadly, not the case that high income means good money management. There's groups of people at all income levels that spend excessively to "keep up with the Joneses" or project a higher lifestyle than they can actually afford. There are those that make $1M per year but want to live the...

I'm thinking the same thing. And yes I'm AMD, and I believe @WhiteOnWhiteMY is too. This is going to get ever harder to track if bugs vary by MCU platform. Just to share the other data I have (which doesn't get us a conclusion but may help others). Quick Favorites disappears at wake/boot...

Wealth isn't what you earn in a year. Wealth is what you're able to bank/invest year over year after all of your spending. There is a good chunk of households with very high income that are barely making ends meet right now without owning a Plaid. Current annual income by itself just isn't...

It DOES fix it...until the car deep sleeps, then the favorites are lost and you have to un fav then re-fav for it to work again.

More data with a days use under my belt with software rev 2023.44.30.2 The good: I added 31 favorites and it cycles through all of them overcoming the 20 favorite limit that @crackers8199 ran into The bad: The quick list favorites is cleared every single time the car goes to deep sleep, and...

Even if you have $115,000.01 in cash sitting in your bank to pay for the Plaid outright draining your saving to one penny for a luxury car is a horrifically bad idea and I would not consider that "affording a plaid".

So OP's question is really a budgetary exercise squarely in the realm of personal finance. Personal finance being exactly that; personal. Each person's answer will be different because of dozens of factors such as: - where they are in life (in college vs in retirement) - how much money they...

>the main window favorites list does survive a reboot. my suggestion is to just use that and don't worry about the mini player favorites, or you'll drive yourself insane trying to make it work. At least on mine when there are no "outside favorites" the "inside favorites" are simply ignored and...

So now that I've been able to join the Tesla OEM SiriusXM club (on Model 3 with Ryzen), I knew my day was coming in dealing with MCU SiriusXM navigation and specifically SiriusXM favorites. This is the most recent thread I could find on the subject, so forgive me if there is one more recent...

Which tuner model #/origin are you running and what does the SirusXM portal call yours?

I seem to have lost the ability to edit my prior posts (or I can't find the button now). I wanted to post that I did throw a monthly subscription on the Model X tuner in my 2022 Model 3 with Ryzen MCU and I am successfully tuning all subscribe streams. While I was hearing the preview...

About a year and a half ago I installed the first Tesla OEM XM receiver into my 2022 Model 3 and created this thread. Today, like others posted, I can confirm that it works with my Ryzen based Model 3! I appreciate the @leecox posting the exact steps and details that made theirs work. For...

Without knowing anything about how the mechanisms actually work, I would imagine that the actuator is under fairly heavy load from the spring pushing up on the frunk. Given that, if the actuator is failing but not completely dead, could you use some clever timing to unload that actuator, making...

You're in better shape shopping 2nd hand for the chademo adapter now. Last year they were selling for $1000-$1200 on ebay even used. At the time I was able to buy mine from South Korea for $350 new (SK uses the same electrical standards as the USA so it works fine on North American Tesla cars...

From prior posts that @stutech posted back in July of last year, they had most of the same thinking I just arrived at. The only exception is I'd like to simplify it slightly and use the FM fallback instead of trying to get the MCU to accept a stream we create on our own. I found the research...

I'm pretty confident the decryption is being done in the tuner instead of the MCU. Every over SiriusXM solution I've seen has all the SDARS signal processing (including decryption) done in the tuner, and what comes out is analog audio. The change here with Tesla appears to be an additional AVB...

TLDR; If this approach to external decoding would work, the user experience under these conditions would appear and sound like a fully integrated OEM SiriusXM experience using the Tesla SiriusXM OEM tuner with all controls using the native Tesla MCU SiriusXM client. Another thought to a Ryzen...

My next attempt, and failure, to get a Ryzen based MCU to work: With the discovery months ago that the X and S tuners work with Atom based MCU, it suggested to me that Ryzen based MCU simply lacks the command to the tuner to switch the output of the tuner from FM to SiriusXM. Were we able to...

Lots of good stuff in this post, and I have a couple questions if you know the answers. You've got a 2018 Model 3 P, which I would assume would have hardware/MCU2 (Intel Atom based). However, the Model S Plaid tuner I assumed was for the current 2021+ vehicles which shipped with hardware/MCU3...

I'm not quite understanding what you're descirbing. In my Model3 with SXM, I don't have any issue setting favorites. Also when I use the left controller, the left/right action will increment or decrement the SXM channel you're on, but it doesn't cycle through favorites. The only way I can...

I also got shot down by the SC two weeks ago. I had another idea that I have in flight right now about how to get one, but I don't know if its going to work. I'll report back whether it does or not.

No premium connectivity here. 2022 M3 LR - Ryzen MCU (I believe) - C tuner 1143716-00-c (from Model X) - No Premium Tesla connectivity subscription - App working on MCU, song titles/channel names, no SiriusXM audio

2022 M3 One update: I have installed the FAKRA to MCX adapter from connecting my Model X (B tuner) to my Sirius brand antenna. No change. Channel listings and song title come through but no audio from SiriusXM (still just hear the last tuned FM station).

Yes, two XM antennas sitting right next to one another sitting on the back shelf visible through the back glass. For reference they are both SiriusXM branded antennas with MCX connectors.

What are we calling a stand alone XM tuner? My 2022 M3 LR has TWO tuners in it currently. 1. OEM Tesla XM Tuner which does everything but the audio (Currently on 3 month free trial sub) 2. FM modulator XM Tuner that audio comes through on an FM radio station. (Currently holding my lifetime...

I've been running my OEM Tesla tuner (without audio form the OEM tuner) along with my FM modulator tuner for not quite a month now. I'll tune both the OEM and FM modulator tuners to the same channel so I get both the text (artist/song) as well as the audio as a workaround until the OEM Tesla...

What does "service" mean here? Is that installation?

If I'm understanding what you're saying, is the suggestion that the signal from the MCU for "Tuner Source Change" might actually be sent properly, but that its just never making it to the Tuner because of the different chassis modules? Wouldn't that mean that simply splicing the CANbus from...

This is what I suspect too. The good news (just barely) is that we know the tuner is capable of receiving the "change source" command. Meaning if we can capture what that looks like on the CANbus (from a Model S or Model X), and use an external source to inject that CANbus, the MCU will simply...

I'll let you know in 2 days when the adapter for female FAKRA to male MCX comes in!

This is an message from quite awhile ago, but I wanted to let you know that I've ordered this adapter and will try it on my 1143716-00-c (Model X) tuner. I didn't realize that the XM connector was ALSO a FAKRA, and my purchased salvage tuner was missing the keyed outside connector plastic part...

I get busy with work and then you guys pick up and carry the torch to the finish line! I'm VERY glad to hear that someone has at least one narrow use case of full success in a non X or S. I read through the posts but can't connect all the dots about what conditions are know successful and...

Note: All of the following photos are from a Tesla Model 3 FM/HD tuner part number 1079749-00-E. These are NOT photos of the Model X tuner with SXM. #1 Top: #2 Bottom (with thermal compound residue (removed residue in close up later photos): #3 Bottom of PCB closer to antenna side...

This is interesting. I'll give this a shot in the next day or so. I could crack open my now non-used M3 tuner and photograph the PCB as its sitting here on my desk (because the MX tuner is installed in my M3). Again, from my brief examination of them both when I was swapping the bottom of the...

This is entirely possible. What do you theorize would be the method for delivering the digitized audio FM signal and or the digitized audio SXM signal to the PHY before the Ethernet encapsulation? Would they MUX the two digital audio signals from FM and SXM together before Ethernet, and just...

I wrote DA (digital to analog), but I should have written A/D (analog to digital). I agree with most of what you wrote with my incorrect switching of DA and AD in my post. However, we know for a fact that there is at least one A/D converter in the tuner because analog FM is never in a digital...

I should be more specific. There's quite a few more ICs (and a separate RF shielded section) on the "top" of the PCB in the MX tuner, but none of those are in contact with the case requiring accommodation of thermal compound which was the context of my comment. On the "bottom" of the PCB that...

I think both FM tuner and SXM tuners are always receiving. So to answer your question that would mean that yes the MCU is confirmed to send the SXM channel navigation event to the SXM tuner, and the SXM tuner goes to that channel, and sends the channel name, artist, and song name back to the...

Just one note to others doing what I've done so far. Even though the tuner is made by the same manufacturer for M3 and MX and is even the same dimensions, the mounting bracket on the M3 tuner is VERY different. Its riveted to the M3 tuner. So your choices are: * bulding your own mounting...

If its just the MCU doesn't send the signal on the CAN bus to the Tesla OEM tuner to switch audio output from FM to SXM then there's an outside possibility to work around this with some help from others. I already have S3XY buttons installed in the car (because Iike having buttons I can push to...
