https://revoltsystems.com/tesla-large-drive-unit-ldu-coolant-bypass-kit-the-achilies-seal-fix/ $499 I'm starting to research options. I believe my car is in scope. 2016.5 S 75 RWD. 150k miles. So far car runs fine, but I want to keep it forever. Is it wise to ask Tesla to check it before...

Auto wipers used to be decent on my 16 S facelift. I left the stalk knob on 3 dots most of the time. Over about the last year they've become much worse. They have the same symptoms described above, especially the occasional wipe on a clear day, and not wiping frequently enough in mist or light...

It's interesting how the human brain categorizes objects without conscious foreground thought. I don't intend to notice Teslas, but I magically become aware of them!

Thanks folks, I let it sleep for a while, and it's back to normal today. That is, one press to go into Park, and another press to extend the door handles.

I now have this issue. 2016 refresh Model S on 2024.2.7. Not certain if this started happening with the latest version. A double press on the park button now puts the car in auto park mode ("choose a direction. Auto park will start after you exit the car") instead of moving the door handles...

I forgot to mention... often on the forum, the word 'uncorked' is used to mean a free acceleration boost that some model S cars of that era were eligible to receive. My car doesn't have the necessary hardware for that. HTH.

I bought my S 60 back in 2016. I later paid to upgrade it to a 75. Strangely I still see 60 in the app - specs where you see 75. However on the main app screen I see 75. That's on the bottom of the main screen, right above the specs button. Also, in the car it shows 75 in the binnacle...

I just swung by this morning. Similar to the above post, there are several technicians working, and pedestals and cabinets are opened up for them to access. There is a meter.

Enjoyed sandwich at Wetzels meat store by the charger!

I believe it's possible to call roadside assistance and let them know.

Wow, thorough research! Some good feedback above, but I'll chime in. I'd suggest ensuring that your mom can easily enter/exit the car. Some mobility-challenged folks have difficulty with the low height or the shape of the door. I wish that my car had better sound insulation, especially for...

Note that only some of the pedastals are working. In-car nav is accurate. Note to self: if Tesla ain't lit, it ain't gonna charge no matter how many times you try. Amazingly, the Buc-ee's staff was THOROUGHLY cleaning the pedastals. Wiping down the top, sides, cable,etc. They even cleaned...

We have a meter, but the cones are still there.

Construction and landscaping done, awaiting meter.

Sorry no pics, but active site construction was occurring this afternoon. Many pedestals in place. Coils of colorful wire on the ground.

Also, if you look at a 3rd party site like TeslaFi.com Firmware Tracker you'll get an idea how widespread a software version rollout is.

Still coned off.

Here's an update to say there's no update. Looks the same, except the grass is growing through the landscape mat. No meter. Given that I live close, no idea why I'm following the construction.

For those that aren't local, let me explain. Dallas Parkway is the name for the service road of the Dallas North Tollway (the north-south expressway in the map above). Windhaven parkway is the local cross street.

I checked this afternoon. Still looks like the last post. Landscaping basically done, no meter.

I brought mine to service with the same complaint. They diagnosed remotely and replaced the center powered louver. I'm not sure if that's the solution because it hasn't been as hot recently. I still wonder if the software is more sensitive to higher temps, or some battery temp sensor is...

It was in the app for me. I think it was under upgrades... infotainment. If it's not, you could just pick other and type what you want.

Heads up, now's the time to do this. It appears there is a price increase underway. I requested the upgrade via the app, and the automated estimate came back as USD $1750. I then looked at www.tesla.com/support/infotainment and it still shows the $1,500 price. I chatted back to service and they...

I forgot to mention, there is no additional labor fee.

************ FIVE years with Model S OP here. You've probably been anxiously waiting all year and hoping that I'd post an update. I'm up to 110K miles now, and there's really nothing significant to report over the last year. (yes, this is that rare "post about nothing"). The range is down to...

You might like cars and coffee in Southlake. Next one is December 18 9am. Usually can see supercars/exotics.

I too saw some on 75 heading south between Atlanta and Ocala. 4 truckloads before and after Thanksgiving. There's hope for a fun Christmas for you central and south Florida people. I thought I read that Tesla sends them by train to Tennessee (?) and truck the rest of the way. I even saw a...

Hope you're sitting down... Additional languages, cold weather improvements, and automatic cam save if emergency. But at least we're not on security fixes only.

Here are the details https://www.tesla.com/support/infotainment

2016 December S. AP3 MCU1 FSD. Had been on 2020.48.37.6 for many months. Got 2021.24.25.1 just now. Seems to be a feature release, not just security fixes. Nothing about FSD beta though.

I experienced this on my phone. I finally figured out how to make the keyboard "floating" so that I could move it out of the way.

Mine is very similar. 2016 December build S60, 99k miles, 60 unlocked to 75 last year. 181 at 80%. Occasional supercharging. Dallas, so not usually too cold.

Yes, scheduled through the app. I didn't know the part number at the time. I never saw the upgrade option in the app.

Someday I'll probably do the $2500 for MCU2. Forum comments seem to indicate that the vast majority of people are happy with the faster response time. Now that the radio is upgradeable too, I'm more inclined to do it. I don't think I'll miss AM much, although I haven't found KRLD on TuneIn...

I have wondered about the damping material. And PPF too. I've seen several threads on both. Laziness/cheapness are currently trouncing my damping/PPF ideas. I do wonder about a reasonable price in the DFW area though. To be worth it, the improvement would need to be quite noticeable.

My wife has a 2018 Model X with air suspension. It seems somewhat smoother, but not 70's Caddy boat smooth:) Certainly not quieter. It would be interesting to drive my car, then an 18 with air, and then a Raven in quick succession over the same road. I vaguely recall someone posting db...

Purchased Model S 60 (RWD) in December 2016 (ordered in October and waited anxiously for 3 months!). Now has 95K miles. Has lifetime supercharging and connectivity. Recently upgraded to a 75. While it was a 60, battery degradation on 90% charge went from 188 miles to maybe 178. Now as a 75...

Athenadriver, Unlocking 60 to 75 is now possible at the service center. Part number: BATTERY UPGRADE, 60kWh to 75 kWh, MS(1091845-06-A) Cost now is $2250 plus $10 labor for the new 75 badge plus tax. They also think that the option to upgrade is available in the app under upgrades, but it...

Now that it's available again, I had the unlock a few weeks ago for my December 2016 S. More than covers the degradation. 90% started at 188 and got down to 175. After unlock, 80% is 183.

Unlocking 60 to 75 is now possible at the service center. Part number: BATTERY UPGRADE, 60kWh to 75 kWh, MS(1091845-06-A) Cost now is $2250 plus $10 labor for the new 75 badge plus tax. They also think that the option to upgrade is available in the app under upgrades, but it wasn't for me...

Has anyone been able to unlock a 60 to become a 75 recently? If so, how? I lost the option to purchase on the website last summer. Various queries to Tesla result in "coming soon" answers, but clearly that's not been true. Latest answer was to upgrade in the app, but I don't have that option.

What happens if you hold the key in the special place in the center console, and press the brake? The manual has a picture of the location.

If you haven't already test driven one, you might want to check ease of entrance and egress. Not so easy as the teeth get longer!

To turn on the car once you're inside, can I suggest holding the fob in the position by the cigarette lighter? Note that nothing will change on the display, but you can press the brake and the car will turn on. There's a picture in the manual of where precisely to place the fob. In my manual...

Any idea what's up? Yesterday the in car nav showed reduced service, but charged fine for me on 4B

Perhaps ask customer service to email the original Monroney sticker to you? I don't know how long they keep them, but worth a shot. I got mine emailed a month after buying the (new) car.

Welcome! I too have been trying to upgrade my 2016 S60 to a 75, but Tesla won't do it. They removed the option from their website last summer. PS, I play clarinet in a local German band here in Texas.

And the northbound traffic is just as bad!
