Hello
I have a model X2020 and love it, ...even prefer the portrait screen instead of the landscape that seems to be the way tesla is going.
I have mcu 2 and HW 3...all good.
I've read that the new X/S refresh has a faster processor, so I'm assuming its really MCU3 or whatever.
The reason i bought my car was not only that it will last for many years without maintenance, except the usual checkups like tire rotation fluids, but I'm under the impression that there can be upgrades to the computer as CPUs get faster.
this was confirmed by owners getting MCU1 to MCU2 upgrades last year.
So my question is what is the process?....is it just get to the motherboard and swap out the CPU chip? or full motherboard exchange? screen replacement. etc.
i'm asking because my guess is as we get closer to FSD (well,..dreaming at this point) and faster CPUs come out as demonstrated in the new refresh...will I be able to upgrade the MCU2 to the newer CPU advertised in the refresh. ( For faster screens, internet, visualizations for autopilot etc.)
Or is the "gut" of the newer models that different from older ones , even 2020 models, that any future CPU upgrades will not be possible.
