Corrected -- 2020 -- Whoops!“2021” - really??
I've got a 2017.......
- Cones, stop signs and traffic lights are enabled with HW3.0 and don't require MCU2. Not sure if this is true.
Anyone have any info on the above I'd appreciate it.
I've got a 2017 MS P100D with an HW2.0 to HW3.0 upgrade scheduled for Aug 7, 2020. I'm curious if the new HW3.0 with MCU 1 has any differences between MCU1 vs MCU 2. I'm trying to figure out if I should upgrade to MCU2 as well. My questions are -- can anyone answer the following:
- FM will be disabled, and you'll need TuneIn to do this with the MCU2 upgrade. Does this work as well as the regular FM tuner? I heard that they fixed this and you can still maintain FM tuner. Not sure what to believe.
- Games -- all the new games will be enabled
- NetFlix - with this configuration you will get NetFlix right?
- Slow start - the MCU2 should correct issues with the car going from park to drive. Right now it takes 30- 45 seconds.
- Cones, stop signs and traffic lights are enabled with HW3.0 and don't require MCU2. Not sure if this is true.
For what it's worth I'm in Calgary, AB, Canada. Not sure if that matters. Anyone have any info on the above I'd appreciate it.
Just saw that the side repeater cams will also show when the rear view camera is on display. Will this show up for us HW3 -MCU1 folks or does it need MCU2 ?
I was wondering the exact same thing, but I posted the question on the Infotainment Upgrade thread...
According to green we are out of luck on MCU1 - https://twitter.com/greentheonly/status/1273648791988711429?s=20
It's totally expected. The MCU1 processor is underpowered compared to the MCU2 processor. That is the nature of a newer computer....they get better every six months....Something that was produced years earlier has less power. The MCU1 computer simply can't handle everything it is being asked to do during normal operations (which is why it runs so slow and lags so much compared to MCU2). To expect even newer features to be added to it (Netflix, YouTube, additional camera views, etc.) is incredibly unrealistic. We have already seen that Tesla is not putting all features on the MCU1 cars, and it is understandable. MCU1 AP2 (or AP3) cars are in the exact same boat as MCU1 AP1 cars....effectively reaching an end to significant new upgrades/features because the computer can't handle it.This is not a good sign. This is a pretty cool feature that definitely is something I want.
Howdy everyone. Tesla Model S newby owner here. I purchased 2017 S CPO from the Tesla dealer last week and they just did a FSD HW3.0 upgrade on my car today. The dealer also offered MCU2.0 upgrade for slightly reduced price of $2250 pre-tax if I'm willing to keep my existing touch screen which I agreed on. Looking forward to trying out HW3 FSD for the first time.
Please disregard. The mystery of the leftover screw has been solved. It came from an access panel under the driver's side dashboard.My Model S 75 received the full self-driving hardware 3.0 yesterday, June 17, replacing the HW2.0 that came with the new vehicle in June 2017. I did not opt for the MCU2 upgrade. Other service requested and provided was "Use Ultraviolet Light To Mitigate Yellow Border On Touchscreen." When I picked up the vehicle later that same day I saw what appears to be a T20 screw in one of my cupholders. When I asked the service manager why he contacted the service tech who worked on the car and responded to me saying, "It was an extra screw from when he [the service technician] removed the old autopilot hardware out." Can anyone on the fourms corroborate the veracity of that explanation?

Checking with my service manager now. I will report back when I hear back. I agree with you, keeping both instrument cluster AND touch screen isn't worth $250 savings.What about the Instrument Cluster ? I believe if Tesla did MCU2 upgrade, they do MCU Computer, Touch screen and Instrument cluster. Not sure if the $250 difference is worth it
...but I also wish Tesla would just support hardware longer than 2 years.
You think MCU2 will only be supported for 2 years? MCU2 came out in 2018.
