mine can’t be uncorked.
and I’m not the only in one EU.
I asked at least 5 service centers , several escalations via MyTesla.
no go
vin 140xxx may 2016
75d facelift
Quite a few in the UK are saying the same thing.
The advice I've given
on the UK owners group for what its worth is to keep asking as some have eventually succeeded. The service centres seem to be working from out of date lists and aren;t checking the P value (or whatever it is). Have they actually inspected the car or just gone from the VIN? The only area I wonder is those with the software limited 85 battery - they should be fine anyway but they fall into a different configuration, but they were built mid 17 so doesn't fit your situation.
I am a UK owner and I was told no also at a service (which took 8 days)
75D Battery 1088794-00-A
vin 5YJSB7E20GF165XXX
Delivered January 2017
Is it the case that this car would be unlocked in the USA but may or may not be elsewhere?
No, the car can either be uncorked or it can't. My first question is how the SC decided your car couldn't be uncorked. Did they perform a diagnostic check or just rely on a VIN and WARP system check? My money is on the latter. My VIN is pretty close to yours (12/16 build 3/17 delivery) and I was originally told no. A few appeals later and turns out I can be, and have been 11/17.
The VIN list is hopeless, you need them to conduct a "PT BMS ISENSORPROTOCOLNUMBER" test. This will deliver a number, and if it is greater than a 3, you are uncorkable.
Hope this helps.
Who did you speak to and which service center?
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?One more datapoint from UK: 75RWD 184xxx , delivered March 2017, Uncorked OK, West Drayton. I'm not sure if its significant but it had 'CH04 High Amperage Charger' & 'BTX5 Battery' on options list. I will try and get android dashboard app to measure 0-60 .... fun in the snow

This would be the first report of an S75 RWD pre-June 2017 that is uncorked if true.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 75 kWh 350VDC battery pack, CH04 is the European 3-phase charger (shows up in the option list whether the AC charger is software-limited or not).
Well, they had my car for a week before getting on to doing anything, I had a list of issues including simple chrome trim realignment which didn't get done.My understanding is that all 75D's should routinely have the diagnostic done at service time, but I don't know whther on not that actually happens. The test only takes a short time but the actual uncorking is quite a complicated software process and takes a good 90 mins or so.
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.This would be the first report of an S75 RWD pre-June 2017 that is uncorked if true.
you're saying some 75's are really 85's? ..... Link? Well ... if there are 75's that are readjusted 85's, wouldn't it be logical that Tesla would AT LEAST offer a 10kWh upgrade?There must be a different explanation than battery configuration since both of the battery types for 75d’s (some people got an 85 battery adjusted to 75) and also the old and new drive units were able to get the uncork.

Thinking here ... in all reality, this whole uncorking thing most likely - came about because it was so assinine AND sucky that the model 3's would have nearly 400hp - & THAT ISSUE virtually make it as (0-60mph) fast as the model S and X's 75's ....
So - that being the case, where is the parody for those of us w/ 10 month old 75D's who according to Tesla, can't be uncork'ed - & we can't get a windshield with no go ghosting, & we can't get the chrome molding aligned so that it's parallel to the parts next to the doors, & we can't get relief from ½ shaft shutter - & we can't get a new headliner (that kept falling off) in less than a½ year, (model X) & can't get the rear camera screen running consistently because we can't get a new wiring harness in less than 3 to 4 months, & we can't get door parts that securely lock until they get here whenever .... & yet we paid at least $50K more - than the way less costly version of the most expensive M3??? would it be wrong to think, "this is F'ing BS .... & maybe we have some seriously bad (un-expressed) thoughts ?

Long story short, in early October I was told to not use the car for a couple of hours whilst the Mothership noodled around with my config. Less than an hour later, I got an e-mail saying they'd essentially downloaded another 100hp into the car and could I test it. I did, and they had I was subsequently told this was an oversight that the car had been delivered with the wrong software config. From what I could work out, it was a config change and the staging and install of the latest software - that's it. That process updated the battery's max current limit as well as the inverter power curves, and all was good.
It says, "Isensor" ... anyone know what that is, or what it means if/when it is above, below, or at "4"?So my SC told me that it couldn't be uncorked and gave me back my car.
I asked for the logs of what had been done and confirmation that they had done a diagnostic to check that uncorking was not possible.
I got the car back (slightly disappointed that the uncorking had not been possible) and waited for the details.
Yesterday I drove the car for the first time since the snow has cleared and it did feel nippy.
Today I get a call confirming the diagnostic had been done and that the uncork was snot possible.
Shortly after I was sent the service log:

I have yet to drive it again but it looks like my drive home may be fun.
Thanks all for the support and advice fingers crossed it really is uncorked.
