It's pretty straightforward to swap to new unit. Getting to the 50 amp fuses is more challenging. Though the unit itself looks easy outside the glycol running though it.

No update yet for my 2013 model s. Will be cool to see 9 when it's available.

I'm at 135k fixing my own, it's totally acceptable out of warranty at this point. Just can't go to Tesla if you want it affordable.

Car still looking good too for a original pre-order. 5.5 years old now, are there any of this age out there still? I haven't seen a low VIN in a long time.

I was under the assumption that they were Made in America too. Open one up like I have with my own it's usual suspects. China, Mexico. It's just assembled here not made here. Sucks, I'd rather see American jobs for the American future.

Fixed the rear handle, while I was at it I realigned the driver's door handle. No more shall it squeak. Almost fully functional Tesla now.

I'm at 135k miles with my Model S, I'd not consider upgrading knowing what I know of fixing my car. It's simple and easy to do post warranty so far. The drive train warranty is quite long so I'm not worried about that. Realistically the problems that develop I've seen are related to entry...
