Side note: on every of the last 3 pages it seems like people are saying the exact same thing.
I do wonder if service centers have records of the testing done on each VIN’s drive units. It would be cool to know that my AWD NonP met tolerances for a P (it would imply that the DUs will last longer).
So there's 2 possibilities really...
All units meet P specs. In which case they might bin the highest scoring ones into known Ps to reduce warranty costs slightly, but any AWD can be flashed to a P no problem. This seems to be supported by the numerous random folks who have had that happen on their cars.
In that case, there's no list of which motors are "really" P since they all are.
The other bonus to Tesla is they don't have different parts streams for repairs. A DU is a DU.
Or... many don't meet P specs, and go into AWD cars. In which case all the AWD-turned-into P folks got SUPER lucky they happened to get AWDs with "better" motors... and in which case Tesla would have different parts streams for replacing DUs in a P versus an AWD/RWD vehicle....
In which case they'd need different PNs on DUs to enable those parts streams. And the list you want would exist.
But since the VIN tells us AWD and P get the same motors that seems unlikely.
