    Legacy Model S with MCU v1 Software/Firmware Version Thread

    8.10.12 AP now does lane changes instantly... it was very slow on the last version. Nice!

    If you’re referring to the 83%, the driver display shows an absolute estimate, think of it as a fuel gauge. The MCU is showing you an actual trip estimate from point A to B, taking into account hills and winds. Of course they are different

    Slacker streaming music. Most songs will abruptly end and move to the next song with 2 seconds remaining.

    Just got a notification to install 2022.8.10.8 on my 2016 MCU1 AP1 Model S. Anyone try it yet? Did they fix the music issue with 2 seconds getting cut off at the end of every song? Any unwanted "improvements"? Holding off for now..

    This week I hit 150 kW on a v2 supercharger with battery 10-20%. Was amazed. But it seemed to taper out earlier than before (>90 kW by 40%).

    My 2016 MS is starting to get the bubbles at the top of the screen as soon as summer started. Will overheat protection stop it from getting worse?

    I will cautiously add +1 to the improved browser crowd. Sometimes it will struggle to start, you might have to free up CPU by pausing streaming, canceling nav, and bring up the sketchpad. But I've always gotten it working after a few tries. Once it gets waze up it's solid and you can go back to...

    Same problem, my streaming music randomly skips to the next song even will full bars LTE.

    Now when I manually pick a song or streaming station, the song will play about 1/3 through and then skip to the next. Very annoying.

    Charge gate was reverted, this has been discussed already. My supercharging (2016 facelift 90D) is actually faster than it was the year I got the car. Now I get up to 150kW when the old 2016 cap was 115kW. You're also missing out on supercharger pre-heating.

    Anyone else have their dashboard not "hang up" after a call over bluetooth? Pressing the end call button on my right scroll or the screen wheel doesn't work and the duration just counts on forever even when the other person hangs up. Can't continue my music or do anything after that.

    Warning!! 2021.4.6 - autosteer disengages without input!!

    Probably the third time I've had to mention it in this thread, but we're not talking about "take over immediately" alarm, we're talking about the "ding-dong", as if you just moved the steering wheel to disengage AP, but tacc is still on.

    Warning!! 2021.4.6 - autosteer disengages without input!!

    What's with your reading comprehension. We proved it's NOT lane lines and dirty cameras in this case. Those don't make a ding-dong disengagement. And elon has addressed this before, FSD doesn't rely on lane lines to map its drivable surface, and there are two computers running in parallel, 4...

    Warning!! 2021.4.6 - autosteer disengages without input!!

    Sounds like a faulty torque sensor in your steering wheel. Going from AP engaged to TACC only with the ding-dong chime is what normally happens when you start turning the steering wheel with AP engaged. The vibrations in the road or weight of the wheel itself is tripping yours way too easily...

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

    I see. Well as I said I'm referring to the browser being completely broken (frozen white from top to bottom) without the ability to go to any site. The new re-written teslawaze works just fine for me, IF my browser is working directly after a scroll wheel reset.

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

    Explain? It's not that site in particular that stopped working. The whole browser turns blank no matter which page you try to visit. During the 1-2 days it is working before needing another reset, it works great.

    AP1 ONLY Please -- life after 2018.50.6

    Another minor change is the PNRD "D" will be blue instead of white when AP is enabled.

    My browser with qTesla Waze worked 100% of the time 2016-2018. Literally every day of my commute. Now it never lasts more than a couple days after the last scroll wheel reset, if at all. Horrible loss of functionality, because if you've used that page before you know how great it was to drive with.

    Is lack of no automatic hold for a 2017 Model S, software or hardware limit?

    I would argue software limitation. While the PMS motor of the Y/3 is used to get down to 0 mph for the auto hold feature, there is no reason the model S can't gently actuate the brake to achieve the same thing. I disagree with the above poster, I think a computer could do it smoother than a...

    If you fast charge, Tesla will permanently throttle charging

    According to tesla's page, the throttling only made about a < 5 minute difference. I guess this confirms it. You're really not hitting that peak for long.

    If you fast charge, Tesla will permanently throttle charging

    Be honest, are you actually happy with tesla removing the limit considering the downside, your battery pack will die faster? Esp with your travel usage. I'm honestly conflicted

    "Service required, car may not restart", battery coolant heater needs replacing, safe to drive?

    Was driving home after a cold night and got that message for about 2 seconds on my IC. Called support and they said the battery coolant heater needs to be replaced.

    Anyone try adding more panels?

    Now that the price dropped 30%+ it's economical for me to add more panels. I would keep the same inverter (mine doesn't clip), gets to about 5.5kw max on 7.1kw inverter. It's my understanding that oversizing the system is the most economical route to expansion. What's the best way to go about...

    Tesla now repairing MCU1 with a new Tegra card for less than $500

    How I Recovered Half of my Battery's Lost Capacity

    After your experiment was complete, continuing the calibration routine seems like a lot of work to change what is essentially a display inaccuracy. As long as you understand the "why", I am not concerned about small changes in the displayed range estimate until I'm at <100 mi and I need to...

    Tesla now repairing MCU1 with a new Tegra card for less than $500

    I don't think 8x capacity = 8x longevity. That was disproven by the tesla owner who works in data recovery and did a microscope inspection on an old eMMC. He revealed that the failure was due to silicone degradation in the chip's controller and not necessarily excessive write cycles...

    Tesla now repairing MCU1 with a new Tegra card for less than $500

    Honestly I think it's just cause early Model S owners are in the minority now. They are focused on model 3, Y, and soon Cybertruck. If this was a model 3 issue it would get squashed quickly.

    How hard should I have to torque the steering wheel to keep autopilot engaged?

    There's definitely something wrong with your sensor. It takes me one finger of force resting above the 9 o'clock scroll wheel

    A lot of people afraid of their garage closing on them here but if your garage is following proper safety protocol, it should have sensors on it to reverse the door if anything is in the path (you can adjust these to be high enough for the belly of the car). Also, as a backup, torque sensors...

    Why I'm Scared to Leave My Tesla At Home

    Again it's not a legal thing. You can do whatever you want to your house, it just won't be "in code". Which is only something you need to worry about if selling or renting.
