Palo Alto service center reached out to me about this as well. Not sure if it is related to my post, but the timing seemed like it.
I just got my car back the service center and once again, the A/C squeaking is still there and sounds exactly the same as before. Those of you that have experienced the squeak, does it sound like mine and has it ever been fixed? Notice how it's worse when starting-up and stopping (near the end of the video).
I had the technical service bulletin done today and it is a HUGE difference. Compressor is almost undetectable from inside the car now, and much quieter from outside. The vibration transmission is much reduced. Certainly at this point it's not noticeable and no longer an embarrassing issue at all. I am back in love with my car (and I never really fell out.....):smile:
I recall on a 60 loaner that their compressor was much louder than our MS. There was a rattle too. I wonder why there is a difference between cars.
FlasherZ I have a 2010 Prius. It's not only stronger but the air blows better than the Tesla as well. And it's super quiet. I will ask for the fix next time I'm at the SC. Seems like the way to go. But yes, the AC has negligible effect on the Model S' range compared to the heater. I've been averaging 250-280Wh/mi here in NJ with the AC on all of the time. I guess it is super efficient!
Wow, 250-280 Wh/mi *with* A/C on?
Wow, 250-280 Wh/mi *with* A/C on?! I'm seeing summer-time power usage around 310 Wh/mi (with lows as in the low 200s), but when I turn on the AC I'm immediately in the 370-380 Wh/mi range. :-(
Are other people seeing the AC power impact as minimal?
Wow! What speeds do you drive at? I don't think I've ever been at 230, except very short periods.That sounds pretty normal. I was at 230 today with the A/C on.
