Tesla maintains the average range for the variety of vehicle configurations. Let's say that the average for your class of cars is 350 RM. If your car had 370 Rated Miles before the failure you are entitled to get at least 370 miles. You are not the only one in this situation and others have been reporting to have received packs with the RM at least equal to that of the original Battery before the failure occurred. I know of a few unlucky exceptions, but those owners went back to Tesla dissatisfied, and with a copy of the document I posted above, and got a better pack with the range at least equal to that of their original Battery before the failure occurred.

Curious, how long did you have to wait for the replacement battery? I'm going on 3 months of waiting for the replacement battery and Tesla still has no ETA or clue on when the battery will arrive.

The issue may involve the suspension type: air suspension cars likely don’t require much or any parts mods there as they automatically compensate for weight changes. Steel spring cars may require some rework.
All just a WAG however…
Yes. Interestingly, the other cars that got their suspension parts also replaced happen to be Coil. Mine is also Coil but did not get those parts replaced. I think this goes along with the fact that, at least in the past, they were using different suppliers' parts put in different builds. The SeC's routine explanation is that it all depends on the vehicle configuration, which I now believe to be the case.
It's a 2013 Model S P85. They are telling me they have no clue when the battery replacement will be ready. So frustrating!

Just got word from my SC that it may be in next week. That’s a pretty good turnaround , dropped off Nov 9.
I just had my HV & 12 V battery replaced on my 2015 S85D with 68K miles. Car stopped working just before Christmas and I had to have it towed to the Boise ID Service center. Took about 2 1/2 weeks from the time I had the car towed in until it was ready to pick up. Tesla replace my pack with a new 90kw pack, but unsure of the new range since I don't actually have the car yet. Pack was replaced under warranty which expires in May, got it in just under the wire. Very happy with the service. While I was there, I had a problem with the lift gate motor on the rear hatch which they replaced at no cost as "goodwill service" Very happy with the service I received. Here is a list of what they replaced:

As to your new range, it all depends if they software-lock it or not. You have a S85D, but for the RWD model S cars with transplant 1011416-00-C, the reported range has been anywhere from 268 to 298 rated miles.Don't hesitate to let us know what yours is.
my car is a 2015 s85d, the new battery charged to 275 locked and 304 unlocked
the service center told me to expect 305 miles rated for 285 mi/kw
How can you be sure about the unlocked? The 85d was 265 new. I also got a new pack and it went up to 278. But I think it's since reverted or maybe it's the weather.

You cannot get a 100 pack. It's too heavy for your car. See article below.
If you had an 85 and they are giving you a 90 they are covered.

If the car had air suspension you can get the 100 pack. @wk057 does these type of upgrades. I mean it would not be a warranty thing.You cannot get a 100 pack. It's too heavy for your car. See article below.
