Not sure about all the symtoms of a failing eMMC, but that frequent total loss of audio is quite annoying and I could neither find any more info about that specific issue online, nor did the technician at our local SeC have any idea.

Nice, I didn't know that! But then the recurring problems we are experiencing, like missing characters and other distortions on the MCU, or complete loss of the audio system including the turn signal and autopilot sounds, which can not be brought back by a reset of the MCU or ICU, but only by...

Just two week ago at our annual service (we had the 4 years service plan): eMMC Vitals Manufacturer ID: 0x90 Name: H8G2d Hardware rev: 0x0 Serial: 0x1837f418 Manufacturing Date: 01/2016 FW Version: 0x0 Status: 0x900 Life Estimation A: -- Life Estimation B: 0x8 Pre EOL Info: -- FTL Errors: --...

Something else that came to mind: Can you request to get the replaced MCU1 handed out or will the SeC keep it?

Reading this, I'm wondering if there has there ever been a report of yellowing on the latest generation of MCU2 used in the retrofit, or is this now definitely an issue from the past?

DEFINITELY requires AP2+ hardware.

The hip factor and the problem of dying eMMC gone! Functional I am not dissatisfied with what our MCU1 has to offer. Since ours is a Model S facelift, it already has the LTE module. Yes, it's quite slow at times, and yes, quite a lot of software annoyances lately (like complete loss of audio...

That's odd, because that looks like the regular price including the HW3 retrofit, which wasn't applicable for your vehicle. That would mean owners of of AP1.0 vehicles pay a premium for the same upgrade with only one price in place (so the same price with and without the HW3 retrofit).

Indeed, that's the info here in my country as well, so currently only AP2.0 and AP2.5 vehicles eligible for that retrofit. Thanks. How much did you pay for it? Because the assumption was, that the retrofit for AP1 vehicles must be cheaper due to the missing HW3 upgrade. So if that's correct...

Has there any AP1 vehicle already been eligible for the MCU2 upgrade? And if yes, what is the part number of that MCU2 retrofit for AP1 vehicles? I've been caught by the following confusing situation: Two days ago my local SeC informed me that the MCU2 retrofit can now be ordered, which I did...

Our MCU1 from 2016 also shows some typical early signs of a failing eMMC and we already have a service appointment 2 days before the warranty ends in September (though we are definitely going for the 4J warranty extension). The question is now, how do I get our service center to exchange that...

You mean your Model S 60D, right? Because this thread is about any success story of a RWD uncorking, which never happened.

Yeah, not so here in Europe (and everywhere else where there is 3-phase power) because all three charging boards are required to make use of 3-phase power and to not cause out of balance power consumption, which isn't allowed by the grid operators. That software-limitation was just a bad idea...

Most destination chargers here in Europe can deliver 3 x 32A = 22 kW Any pre-facelift Model S with single charger can utilize 3 x 16A = 11 kW Any pre-facelift Model S with dual charger can utilize 3 x 32A = 22 kW Any facelift Model S and Model X with software-limited High Amperage Charger can...

That's the whole point. It's worth nothing now because they are giving it for free to anybody who ordered after June 30, 2017.

The 3-phase High Amperage Charger in all facelift Model S and all Model X ordered before July 1, 2017, was software limited to 11 kW although the hardware is capable of doing 16.5 kW, unless one chose the option to pay a fierce premium for those 5.5 kW more in AC charging rate, which is still...

Sure you can complain, but it won't help, the fight is over and we had to come to peace with how it is.

There is no hope left, it's not going to happen. No S75 RWD that does not have the new drive unit will get uncorked, period!

You definitely will want to visit THIS place, which is good for any future reference as well :cool:

You mean that the rear rims are wider? If that's the case, I didn't know. The mentioned (European) tire dimensions show that the rear tires are 20 mm ~ 0.79 inch wider and from the looks of it one can clearly see the difference of the tires to the rims, which made me assume the rims are the same...

The rims (in my case 21" Arachnids) obviously are the same, but the back wheels came with a wider tire. The Michelin Pilot Super Sport Acoustic is not a specific EV tire and my guess is that the wider rear tires are just supposed to provide a better wheel grip for RWD sports cars (clearly not an...

That has all been gone through several times already. Jon McNeill wanted to bring clarity to that matter back in September, but obviously that never happened before he left the company. I'm still following that matter closely and had several inquiries to executive support and our local SC, but...

Unfortunately I can not see any pictures you posted. I assume you need to be logged in somewhere else to be able to view them? So would a 10A fuse be recommended in that case? Clearly the catch here is, that if you put a cooler into the truck connected to that 12V socket, you have to operate...

That's great, I really want to add a 12V socket to my trunk for the cooler as well. I have just taken a look, the cooler requires max. 48W. Does it require an additional fuse to connect a 12V socket to the power liftgate module, and if yes which one?

So what happened?

It really sounds too good to be true, but although I wish this became reality for @Mark77a, I rather think that this is a mistake and that the SC didn't realize it's not a S 75D beforehand. @Mark77a, you wrote that you will not get your car back before Monday. So you are not absolutely sure...

That doesn't sound right, no S75 RWD produced before June 2017 can have the new drivetrain, hence is not uncorkable. Can you send me your complete VIN by PM, so that I can inquire at my contract from our local SC? CH04 High Amperage Charger & BTX5 Battery are insignificant, BTX5 is the regular...

Same here, with the difference that I'm here in Europe and have to wait for winter to end first (means worst case April 15, that's when winter tire obligation in case of wintry conditions ends). :(

The second drawing for Race the Tesla Semi is currently in progress. I'm in touch with the head of the Tesla Referral Program and he promised that the leaderboard will be cleaned up to not have the mentioned issues moving forward, which means the counters will be reset to only include entries...

So what's new? Tesla Semi Leaderboard working again. Right now only 1 day 15 hours 32 minutes remaining till the next drawing. They did NOT reset the previous entries! Saul (already more than 10,000 entries now) didn't win the first drawing, but Bjorn did. Conclusion: If you are not a popular...

In case you haven't seen, you are replying to someone who has asked for a referral code last year. :p

No access to the leaderboard anymore since the message "Drawing in progress". o_O

I haven't read the details about that "Ladesäulenverordnung" but isn't it irrelevant for Tesla since their charging stations are all on private property? It isn't a publicly accessible charging network but for Tesla vehicles only. How can the state interfere with that?

So that's why he didn't respond to my last few emails... Bummer! Where do I send my sophisticated emails to now? Jon wanted to clarify the uncorking situation and have a look at unlocking the software-limited AC chargers, which he didn't neither. Does anybody know if there was a second behind...

No, Central Europe.

Since it's rather pointless to post a referral code here on this forum, let me give it my best shot: :D >>> CLICK HERE <<< FOR MAKING A REAL TESLA BARGAIN YOURSELF In addition to what Tesla Motors has to offer, by using my referral you may also get a chance (*) to experience the unbelievable...

Even for a popular YouTuber it is highly unlikely to be able to mobilize that amount of subscribers in such a short period, as you (and others in the top 10 of the leaderboard) have seen for yourself. His number of entries was lingering for days, then jumped in thousands from one day to another...

That master cheater is already through 9000 entries, but according to Praveen (head of the referral program) that matter is already being worked on, as well as a few other measures to avoid abuse.

@HankLloydRight that one is clearly overdoing it with his fake newsletter signup, he is now already approaching 6000 entries. o_O

Maybe the one responsible for all the Dubai Tesla Taxis ;)

Just in case it has been overlooked or not been clear, I have pointed out the quirks of the current round of the Tesla Referral Program (till April 30, 2018) in another thread. Point is, due to the current changes there is just no point that a referral code is used more than once, especially...

@HankLloydRight I guess it's not that clear right now what will happen on February 8, so if the entries are reset or not, though it would not make much sense to keep just adding to already drawn entries week after week. The huge number of entries in the top 10 of the leaderboard can only either...

Addition to #4 about the Tesla Newsletter Subscriptions: There will be weekly drawings, so the one with the most entries is not automatically a winner.

Only the FIRST to use a referral code in this round of the referral program will receive the credit toward service or accessories. A clever step by Tesla, because that way there is just no point at all that the same referral code is used more than once. There will be NO credit if the order is...

So did all pre-July-2017 S75 RWD owners settle in and accept their fate? No new information has become available since then, no further statement from @JonMc or the SCs, which lets assume that's pretty much it. :(

It's an award from a previous round of the referral program. We are first going on that factory tour, then to the Semi Truck Unveil event. Unfortunately we only have free spots for the Gigafactory Tour.

We'll be in Florida at the end of the year, which means if the date of December 29 should hold, we would be able to watch our very first rocket launch live. Can anyone recommend the best possible publicly accessible spot for watching that launch?

We can bring 3 additional guests. If you are interested, let me know how you think you can sweeten our short stay in the United States. :)

Yes, it clearly has become an even larger mess than anticipated, even though @JonMc wanted to clarify back in September when CPO vehicles were showing up with the uncorked specs (by error). But still, even Tesla Executive Care can not tell anything else than what they have been told at this...

More patience needed, you will not get any other reply from Tesla right now, they all are just replying what they have been told to. We can just hope that this hasn't been it already.
