So it sounds as it perhaps the reman MCUs also include the new 64GB daughterboard. That would make sense.Got my car back last Thursday. They did replace it with a remanufactured unit that has 64GB so hopefully this one will last. I did lose my driver profile settings but everything else appears to be there. Here is a cut and paste from the parts order email that I received.

After the MCU replacement the center screen seems to go to sleep a lot more than it used to. I get in the car in the morning and the big screen is ready to go but the center screen takes about 30 seconds to fully wake up before I can put it to drive. It doesn't happen every morning but it's happened a handful already. Anyone have this happen?
I understand why an estimate would freak you out when you are under warranty if it wasn't explained, but I have a mobile service appointment today, and I got a text yesterday that said exactly this (emphasis mine):I'm awaiting to hear what they say if the estimate was a mistake, and whether or not the replacement would be covered within my warranty, even if the MCU arrives a week or more later.
That having been said, in your unique circumstance, hopefully they will still confirm that the replacement will still fall under warranty since the issue was reported prior to warranty expiration.The Mobile Service team has prepared your appointment. Please take a moment to review the Service section of your Tesla app to approve the planned work. Charges covered under warranty will be waived. Reply 'STOP' to stop updates.

So if I were to buy a 2016 with a 2 year warranty the odds are pretty good I would get MCU2 for free after 1 dies?
Mine wasn't replaced, they were able to bring it back with a "software fix." Before that, the screen was black with no turn signals.... Now most mornings yes, vertical center screen is on but dash screen behind wheel is off and takes time to come on before I can drive. This also started happening before my big screen failed so I hope it's not a signal that another failure is imminent.
Do you have Energy Savings on or Always Connected off under the Display settings?
I think they're even doing the 64GB daughterboard fix now instead of providing a refurbished replacement.Assuming it fails within the 2 year warranty, Tesla will refurbish your MCU1. You do not get MCU2 for free.

Per https://www.tesla.com/support/vehicle-warranty:What warranty does a new MCU2 get if purchased?
Interestingly, this doesn't mention AP hardware (like FSD upgrade). However, the linked PDF does include the same information, and that document says it is effective July 2nd, 2020. Also, this is a parts, body, and paint repair warranty. The MCU2 upgrade may not be treated as a repair, so some other warranty may apply.Touchscreen and Media Control Unit: 2 years or 25,000 miles, whichever comes first
