When I picked up my 2015 P90DL after the MCU 2 upgrade I had a few issues.

What worked:
Auto-parking, all settings were restored homeIink, seats, previous navigation locations, Summon (via FOB), radio accounts, new games (sonic and so on), browser.

Note:
Although there were some shortcuts at the bottom there was only one temp control and the right corner was empty.

What didn't work:
Theater was completely blank, no XM or title, only one climate control option.

I called tesla support, they tried the Monty Python Easter eggs Patsy and the rabbit one, a soft reset and changing the language to another one and back. Nothing worked.

I decided to do a complete factory reset and then I saw items in the theater XM and Title appeared, I also had dual climate controls and more short cuta at the bottom.

Since I reset to factory I had to setup everything again. Afterwards I seems to have resolved almost everything except two Items.

Auto Park on exit and Summon via FOB is no longer working after thr reset to factory.
There is no longer an option to "REQUIRE CONTINUOUS PRESS" in my summon setting screen.

Has anyone else had or have this issue?

It looks like it was regional locked. After the factory reset the option was missing. After doing some more research I read the feature is blocked in some countries and the car doesn't know where in the world it is until it drives, something about GPS not registering unless it's driving.

The settings are now back and I can autopark and summon with the FOB.

Very happy now.

With the MCU upgrade - it seems that the trip indicators and the energy used aren't calculating - the only part of the energy screen that calculates is when it is in regenerative braking. Also the XM radio shows in the sources and I can choose channels, no sound though. FM doesn't show at all (as expected)

But that's not the worst of it.

They called me up yesterday after I had gotten it back and informed me that they were "fixing Tesla's mistake" from a warranty battery install that happened back in March - and took away 30% of the range right then. I have had full access to 295 miles at full charge of the 90kw battery that THEY installed in my 60 before I ever bought it - and yesterday it went from 245 miles @80% to 100% at 209 miles in my driveway. WTAF.

Oh, but I can have it back if I pay them a ransom of $4500. This is utter bullshit. I was already screwed for more than $1000 by the TPMS repair (Which I contend should have been done under the safety warranty) b/c the module wasn't functioning properly at all. I had replaced the sensors with NEW OEM sensors, but they insisted that the sensors and the receiver were "a kit that is matched" and I HAD to get all new sensors (for $380 plus $900 in labor of the job) and then - on their own notes in the paperwork - that new module was ALSO discovered to be defective, so ONLY the module was swapped out again, which proves their lie of the "matched kit" was nonsense.

It's all a money grab with the service centers. Everything is "give us more thousands"

My 2016 has been stuck at 99% calibrating cameras for the past 2 weeks after the upgrade. And I have had other issues, I posted here
 
I got the infotainment upgrade with my MCU2 installation in June 2020, followed by an AM/FM installation in Mar 2021. The list of stations that I can scroll through using the buttons on the left side of the steering wheel seems to have gotten randomized, making it frustrating to find stations while driving. The station logos that used to appear on my console display are also less reliably present.

It's even worse with the history icons for USB music. Buggy and total crap to release such code.
 
I just had my Infotainment upgrade on 2017 Model S, prior MCU1, AP2.5. Here's what I posted in another thread with the issues I'm having:
No Caraoke, Disney+ won't play (black screen), No Voice Commands (Connection error, Try again), Tune-in not working (spinning circle), Phone calls won't "hang up" and Spotify only plays 1 song and stops. If I press the Play or FWD button, it starts a panic "start/stop/start/stop" loop on the songs.

I have a service appointment set for tomorrow. According to another thread, this is an easy firmware download fix. Crossing fingers.
