My Car is a 2017 Model S 90D with the 3.0 HW and MCU2. I'm on the 2024.3.25 Software update. cameras and MCU were upgraded by Tesla. Im not the original owner but my sticker price lists the FSD computer. i have an early 03/2017 Build if that makes any difference.

let us know when they go away

I have a pre 2021 refresh car. idk if you can remote in to my laptop and poke around but i'd be willing to be a guinea pig

that would make perfect sense

can you confirm this as in you have gone in to the gateway config to view if the option is there? i have 24h access to toolbox and would want to avoid paying a day to find out its really not there.

in this last week i arrived with about 20-30% charge and not once did i get the preheating message. its fine though, i think my car is doing the max charge of 120kW and then it drizzles down to about 50-70kW

can also confirm i got it last night. also used it for about a 30 mile drive. works just like it should. not perfect but def better than v11

Verified louvers are opening and closing by turning the AC to MAX. now my question is, how do i clean all the gunk that inside where the radiator sits? I've taken the bumper off, but theres another hard plastic like frame that bolts up.

gotcha, I'm in AZ and its not necessarily hot or cold at the moment, but I do remember with MCU1 the car would open up the louvers and the fans would kick on.

Hello All! What are the circumstances a 2017 model S should precondition when navigating to a supercharger? my model 3 would show a message on the destination portion of the navigation where it said something along the lines of "Preconditioning for Fast Charging" but my model s 2017 doesn't...

it looks like the original Reddit post explains that the person probably traded in their car because the new odo is at like 800 something miles :(

it should be the same, except it does rub in the front at full lock.

Yes I put 15mm spacers all around. I created a different thread with pictures of the wheels installed. You could probably search my profile and find it there.

This is what i meant.

its these. I honestly didn't measure the length to compare them to the OEM size. I can say I was able to get about 10 full turns with the 15mm spacers so i know they are definitely long. Dorman 610-490 M14-1.5 Serrated Wheel Stud - 15.7mm Knurl, 69.75mm Length Compatible with Select Ford Models...

I am on spring suspension unfortunately :( I wish I could retrofit the air suspension but that would be extremely expensive to do.

Let me start off by saying I love learning new things and I am OK with breaking stuff at the cost of learning. Do this at your own caution, I will not take responsibility of your actions. I love the refresh 2021+ model S wheels with the aero covers and I hated the way my 2017 model S' wheels...

For anyone wondering, I was able to change my wheel lug studs to the extended ones in the front and the back without having to remove the hub. I was required to do this to install 2021+ refresh model S wheels on my 2017 model S. The front is very simple; 1. Remove the wheel 2. Remove the Brake...

Hi all, I am installing plaid wheels on my 2017 standard suspension model S and I have to install the extended studs. I got to the fronts done over the weekend, but I was unable to get to the rears due to time constraints, but I did get as far as removing the rear brakes and disc brake. When I...

I don't track the car, i just have a heavy foot. My car is 100% stock and i don't like wasting my money on unnecessary things that depreciate in value. I also don't buy the most expensive set of tires that the tire shop recommends. I cheap out and go with literally the cheapest set I can find...

lets just say the 0-60 time is a much needed feature for my foot ;). I think I get around 7-9K miles on a set of tires.

They did, but only because Tesla Service recommended an upgrade after troubleshooting my MCU 1 and deeming it unusable. My screens started going black, but sounds and music would still play so i was unable to use the touch screen portion. it would also freeze unexpectedly and reset 2-3 times on...

Yes I have, twice. The first repair bill was a little bit over $4k iirc and I am using it now for the second time for a bill of almost $7k. I paid about $4000 for the extended warranty, so in my view the purchase was well worth it. it may not be worth it for everyone but for me it was. I plan...

Can you add your complete opinion on why Extended warranties are a scam?

I would suggest you get it. I have it and they have great customer service and so far I haven't had any issues with them.

have you guys seen any changes?

i got the update last night. I haven't been able to drive the car just yet because of the MCU resetting over and over. it was already doing that before the update so i don't think it has anything to do with it.

Hi all, I am providing an update to my XCare Warranty Claim I had last week. This was my very first claim with XCare and Endurance. Overall, dealing with XCare and their Customer Service: Phenomenal customer service from Libby who reached out to me as soon as I posted about my claim on this...

Good to know! I've been meaning to install my plaid wheels on my 2017 model S and need the spacers. I almost bought them from bonoss so I am glad i didn't pull the trigger. the best way i can think of doing this is to buy longer studs which are these Dorman 610-490 M14-1.5. I will be ordering...

absolutely! I have a 2017 Model S 90D. Hopefully it's something super simple! I love my car and planning on keeping it at least 2 years before i go for a newer refresh LR or Plaid

I purchased my extended warranty through xCare at the end of last year because they said the prices would be going up this year. I think I may have gotten super lucky with timing because my car started making a cracking noise yesterday morning as I was leaving for work. I submitted a claim...

I wonder if it would be any easier with a car that is already a dual motor and closer to the Raven build production wise. for example, a 2017 model S 90D, im thinking of what all needs to be changed to switch to a raven front motor. if you don't mind, would you reach out to me via PM and share...

can you provide an update if any?

I'm interested in turning on fog lights for my 2017 Model S with MCU1, would any of these TB2 or 3 subscriptions work for me?

Bump! I also want to know because i keep seeing base and uplevel versions. thanks!

Hello all, I've read the thread a few times and haven't understood if the final agreement was if the headlights work or not on the older model S. for reference, I have a 2017 90D and my eyebrow LED has gone out. It would be ideal to have the 2021+ headlights installed on mine. I don't care...
