Why do you keep knowingly spreading false info?
Because it's not false.
You can look yourself in the parts catalog to confirm every
fact I have posted.
Why do you keep calling someone backed up by official published sources a liar is a better question.
We know for a fact the CEO told us the Performance drive units tested out with higher capabilities
No, we don't.
We have one vague tweet, never followed up on in any way, that doesn't even say what you seem to think it does.
Here's the relevant quote
Elon Musk said:
Performance drive units are lot sorted for highest sigma output & get double the burn-in.
"double burn in" just means "we ran the test twice as long" it tells you literally nothing useful (unless it's a part you expect to fail almost immediately anyway- instead of one you expect to run for hundreds of thousands of miles) so we can toss that bit out.
All we're left with it "lot sorted for highest sigma output"
Now- do you know what that actually means, and why it does
not tell us
anything at all about if "regular" AWD 980 DUs are functionally any less capable of being flashed to P software?
Especially given we know
for a fact such DUs
have been flashed to P software on the lot?
Add to that the fact
all the DUs ended up stamped with
the same part number after whatever (never proven to actually happen) "sorting" was done.
Which makes
zero sense from inventory or manufacturing or supply chain perspective if there was any
actual functional difference
Chip makers bin parts all the time.
When they do, they stamp
different part numbers on the ones who perform differently enough for it to matter.
So does everyone else who
actual bin parts.
Otherwise you have no simple way to track the actual differences in parts.
and this was confirmed by a TMC member who toured the factory and was explained the binning process by one of the Tesla employees.
If you seriously want to use "some rando tesla employee said" as a source then we have ones who also told us:
Track mode is only for the P3D+ (known false)
The + and - have different motors (also known false)
The first "unexpected" P3D- batch this year was "just a one-off mistake (also known false since there's been multiple additional batched, regularly, since)
and a hundred other completely false BS "someone at tesla" told to people.
Hell, even Elon has, often, said things about the cars that turned out never to happen.
There was supposed to be an SDK for developers to make infotainment apps- Elon said so in like 2013. Never happened. Back in 2016 he said instead they were gonna do phone mirroring to the screen (their own version, not Apple or Androids version)- never happened.
V10 was supposed to roll out with text-to-voice features. Never happened. (Hell, V9 was supposed to roll out with waypoints in nav- also never happened)
And of course he told us years ago the 3 would come with ludicrious mode.
Where is it?
So apart from the CEO himself getting a lot wrong- for rank and file folks Tesla has arguably the least informed workforce in the industry on how they actually do anything because they're so terrible at communication both internal and external.
Now they even have different part numbers which should be the final nail in the coffin of this bad rumor.
...you realize this contradicts your own argument right?
The
reason to use a different part number is the part is different
Which means that
now the rear DU is different between AWD and P.
And that it was
not different in 2018 when it was the
same part in both cars.
Which is literally the evidence you claimed was "false" but now appear to be on board with...??
The silicon carbide drive inverters were part of this binning process to separate out the Performance capable units from those destined for AWD (non-performance models). I'm not sure why we have to go over this every few months.
Because you keep being wrong about it- as directly contradicted by the actual PNs in Teslas catalog.
And apparently as contradicted by
your own argument that since PNs are different NOW that shows they're different.
Yes- it does.
It also shows they
were not different when both cars got
the same PN installed.
That is, again, kind of the
point of having part numbers
All the info is in earlier posts in this thread.
Yes, it is, yet somehow you keep getting it wrong.
Weird.
