    Improvements in MY LR features July 2022 vs Dec 2023

    Ostrichsak, thanks for your reply and the comprehensive list! I do seem to already have many of the features you list in my 2022 (July-build) model Y. One that I know I'm lacking is the Comfort Suspension. Can anyone testify as to how much of a difference that has made in the ride? Also, do the...

    Improvements in MY LR features July 2022 vs Dec 2023

    I'm currently driving July 2022 Austin-build MY LR. Can anyone advise on how this MY would compare with a December 2023 build? What changes / improvements / new features (if any) would I receive if I traded in for the current build? Thanks in advance for your reply!

    WITH UPGRADE TO MCU 2...ONE SPEAKER DIED. RELATED??

    Thanks for replies. Yes, I'd been wondering if some type of short or transient output during MCU2 install might have damaged my speaker. But I guess it does seem unlikely. Unless my 7 1/2 yo speaker was on it's last leg anyway. And since so far the new one continues to work just fine, I have to...

    WITH UPGRADE TO MCU 2...ONE SPEAKER DIED. RELATED??

    WITH UPGRADE TO MCU 2...ONE SPEAKER (Driver side door) DIED. RELATED?? Folks, several weeks ago, had my late 2015 MS in for MCU2 upgrade. Immediately on drive home I noticed sound didn't seem right. On arriving home, I noted the driver's side door speaker was dead. Just returned from service...

    Replacement Tires for 19" wheels

    Thanks JC. Will take your advice and reserve judgment until "broken in". Have started with cold pressures at 44 psi. We'll experiment - bring that down a bit - and hope to find our "sweet spot" balancing out efficiency vs ride comfort vs tire wear. But at least for me, running in the 30's will...

    Replacement Tires for 19" wheels

    We only just took delivery of our MY 10 d ago (Austin-built MYLR) and I'm already looking forward to different tires to improve the rough ride! I guess there is no way that Tesla service would allow me to trade in essentially new tires for a different brand... (I know I could remove and try to...

    Replacement Tires for 19" wheels

    Anyone out there running Bridgestone Turanza QuietTrack 255/45-19 on their MY? I've not used on my Teslas but have in the past on other makes and found them to be quiet, comfortable and long-wearing. They seem well rated on TireRack among Tesla owners.

    Vendor Teslogic — Mobile Instrument Cluster for Tesla Model 3/Y

    Nice looking product! Should be very useful if it functions as advertised. A question re navigation maps shown on the Teslalogic. I'd envision running this using a spare Android phone, which is not hooked up for mobile data service with a phone provider. I presume I could simply connect it via...

    Dashboard Screen

    A while back, I read a post about a 3rd part repair shop in the Tampa FL area, which was replacing the instrument panel screen on older MS for approx $500. I cannot find the post. Can anyone out there provide a link? Thanks in advance!

    Replacement MCU1

    Thanks FixMe. As my saga goes, picked up my car from service yesterday and then returned it 5 min later. While the GPS issue was resolved (with addition of Gyro board), my LTE was malfunctioning, switching into 3G. Now again ready for pickup, after installation of a new "connectivity board" (by...

    Replacement MCU1

    Here's an update... Service says they fixed my GPS problem: "Found replacement MCU is incorrectly equipped and missing gyro board. installed gyro board..." Can someone tell me where the "gyro board" lives (inside the MCU perhaps?) and what is the part number for such? If this is an item that's...

    Does upgrading to MCU2 have any affect on audio quality?

    Excellent! Thanks for finding that thread. Lots of good - though somewhat confusing - information there.

    Replacement MCU1

    Hope that stays fixed for you! Keep us posted. I wonder if Service is moving from replacing daughter boards to just swapping out entire reconned MCU's. Would save them time in the service bay since they avoid having to open the removed MCU on site, have someone mess with the insides, swap out...

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

    @MOrpH3x: Thanks. That actually makes sense because beyond the major GPS issues, the LTE performance also seems to be degraded compared to pre-service, now switching between 3G and LTE. Let's see what Service comes up with. Or maybe I just need to bite the bullet and shell out for the MCU2...

    Does upgrading to MCU2 have any affect on audio quality?

    Question: Has anyone found that upgrading from MCU1 to MCU2 has any affect on audio quality, positively or negatively? I have a MS 2014 with Premium Audio. Perhaps there is a broader range of graphic equalizer settings or different algorithms with MCU2? Or more power to the speakers and...

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

    Question: Does anyone know where GPS functions reside? Is there a GPS board/chips/antenna built into MCU1, or are those external components? I ask because Tesla Service recently replaced my MCU1 with a "new" (reconditioned) MCU1. Since then, I have a new issue... my GPS guidance is totally...

    Can all data/setting be saved by service during MCU replacement?

    OK, thanks to you both for the replies. I was just a little suspicious that maybe they didn't actually do the full MCU replacement. Especially when the Homelink still worked. Spoon, your logic makes sense. If I'd been given a choice I would have taken your option. Even so, one day out the...

    Can all data/setting be saved by service during MCU replacement?

    A technical question for you technical geeks: To fix my ongoing CPU1 issues, local Tesla service just replaced my existing MCU1 with a new (i.e. recon) MCU1. (To be clear, not a daughterboard swap but replacing the entire CPU. Or so they say...) Receiving my MS, I was pleasantly surprised that...

    Will MCU2 allow audio streaming while driving?

    Well, never mind. After further search, it looks like this question has been answered: Browser Audio working but only parked Bummer. I'll assume this is still the case.

    Will MCU2 allow audio streaming while driving?

    After failure of my MCU1 in my 2015/build MS, I'm debating between the MCU2 upgrade vs a refurb MCU1. I assume video streaming (via MCU2) is deactivated when driving for safety reasons. (At least I HOPE that's the case!!) What I've not seen mentioned is whether or not audio streaming via the...

    Gateway 2

    Thanks jboy. Looks like voltage loss based on distance is not a significant worry for AC. In our case, I think placement of the gateway outside while other components are inside was just an attempt to simplify installation for our particular conditions. Space inside our garage is limited. We...

    Gateway 2

    Miimura, thanks for this explanation. In our case we will not have a subpanel as we're doing whole house backup (all loads in the main panel.) I know they did mention placing a generation panel, though I'm not sure exactly what will be placed on it. In terms of the physical install, our main...

    Gateway 2

    I've a technical question on gateway installation. My understanding is that grid power needs to run through the gateway so it can isolate home PV systems and PWs from the grid during outages. What else needs to run through the gateway? Does power from PV arrays, and from Powerwalls, also need...

    Has Model S quality improved?

    We're a two Tesla family, 2015 S70 and 2014 P85. Both have been terrific cars, best I've ever owned. Came from a late model BMW Convertible. It was fun to drive but a very complex machine (overly so, IMHO.) In the shop several times a year for various little issues. Service trips were a pain...

    EV-CPO.com CPO Consolidator support thread

    Well, it seems there are no used CPOs at all showing at all on Tesla's site. So issue seems to be on their end, not yours EV-CPO. Anyone have a clue what's going on? Could Tesla be revamping their entire CPO situation, or has this happened before, perhaps as a technical glitch?
