Max Battery Power Missing - Firmware 2019.8.3

[krsgio]

maybe we need to have someone on one the ev sites like https://electrek.co write an article about it to get exposure that might help push that bug to the top of their backlog. I mean it's been broken since 2019.8.x which came out in March...

edit: just submitted a tip. who knows if it will do anything but this is getting old.

Got it. I'll do the same. Thanks.

I'll help however I can. I really want to avoid going at Tesla head on seeing as I'm still a huge fan and want their products to be very successful. I just wish we had some focused attention from engineering who could work with us and at least make us feel like it's being addressed.

Here's my poll with results so far.

I posted on social media about 10 days ago. Maybe if we get a bunch of people posting on there, it may get some visibility (or a response). Very wishful thinking, but at least it's an attempt.

Following. Updated last night to 2019.12.1.1 and now lost launch control / max battery power. Could be a miscalibrated butt dyno but also feels like I've lost power with regular ludicrous enabled

After the update my P90DL with V3 battery has lost 40 kw!!! Was getting above 500kw and now getting 460kw. I am def going to take it in and have them change the the performance back. If not I will def sue or they better offer me an nda cause this is bullshit. Tesla is the biggest *sugar* company in existence.

What are you using to measure power? I'd like to do the same. Unfortunately I don't have a baseline.

I think we all feel the loss in power. Ludicrous now is not the same as Ludicrous pre-update even without max-battery.

Elon if you are reading this, fix my car. Please.

There is a 2019.12.1.2 available, haven't seen any reports if that fixes Launch/Max Battery or not.
I'm still on 2018.50.6, so I don't want to install any new firmware until it's confirmed working again.

 

[Grumble]

I messaged the SC to push it to my car last night. We'll see what happens. Not overly optimistic.

 

[krsgio]

There’s no ap1 cars with that update so I kinda doubt it’s of any use vs 2019.12.1.1

 

[Grumble]

Yeah, what I figured too but if they can eff up firmware this bad, they can probably do the same rolling it out

 

[Teejay26]

Asked my contact at Fremont to push to me and he said it's not yet released for my car.

I have just "updated" to 2019.12.11 and now have Ludicrous +. This does nothing (no battery heating and hence no extra Ludicrous) and I too have lost launch control. I am P90DL 2016 AP1 on a V1 battery.

Only had the car a few weeks - if I had seen this topic would not have updated. Will be passing my "concern" to Tesla via account message.

It sounds nice to say and probably makes you feel good, but you'll never sue. The cost of doing so would far exceed any financial compensation you may receive, if any at all.

I can’t confirm this on the newest version because I haven’t updated, but my 2014 with the V3 battery is getting around 500kw. Turning off max battery mode even after completely preheated lowered my max amps to 1500 and I always saw exactly 479kw output. Your lower power output is almost certainly because you are currently limited to 1500 amps and your battery isn’t at optimal temps. I’m sure this will be corrected, but who knows when.
