Is it possible to upgrade a 2013 model s 60kwh battery to an 85kwh battery at home?
I had an original battery fail and Tesla replaced with a remanufactured battery about 15k miles ago. The issue is that I went from 185 miles of range at 90% to 159 miles of range at 90%. They seem to have software limited the battery and it is time for a change. Since the car is now out of warranty I feel as if I should do all of the maintenance that I am capable of.
I will purchase an 85 battery from a third party.
I understand the procedure to complete this, but I am unfamiliar with how the car would recognize the replaced battery.
Would it be Toolbox 2, Toolbox 3, T-can, or a software redeploy in service mode???
Any and all discussion is welcome.
Thanks all!
