- ms p85+ tesla model s
it may be, this weird overpriced used car thing, but its returning to normal. I'm curious the value of free superchaging, motor swap, and battery swap on residual value. I know the MCU2 was worth it.

I've found that none of that has any impact whatsoever on resale value of S's 2015 and older, especially pre-AP1 cars.
Free supercharging is one of the most overhyped things, too. Sure it's cool to have if you have it, but I wouldn't ever spend any extra money on a car just because of this. My wife's 3 has almost 100k miles and quite a few road trips. Think we're still under $500 in supercharging costs in almost 5 years. Free supercharging is hype.
Again, most normality doesn't really seem to apply in California, though, where literally everything costs 42x as much as anywhere else. So who knows.

Just an update, but i went with the car- no other teslas at the price range i was in had PPF or even front ppf- this one had it installed over the entire body- including headlights and whatnot, and was loaded.
Ended up at 43.5k for it, which im happy with.
As for the wheels, i’ll probably replace them with 19’ slipstream OEM wheels (satin black)- smoother ride and more longevity is something i prefer even tho these wheels look great

I definatety will see if i can get this done at a body shop for the re-routing of the A/C drain so it doesnt go on top of the battery, i appreciate ya making us aware of this
Yeah, this was slightly emotional on my end since when i own something i want it in new-condition for as long as possible. The previous owner did the same.

Hey @wk057 i read up on the thread on preventative maintenance for 2012-2014 MS models, would there be a way to communicate you want the A/C Drain line extended to outside the vehicle so it doesn't drain onto the battery pack to an Auto body shop? perhaps maybe none in Washington would want to this to begin since most dont like touching teslas. However maybe if its explained as a relatively none-intrusive procedure (which it is but I'd rather have a professional do so) they'd be willing to do so? and what type of shops specifically, mechanics, auto body shops, collision centers?

I purchased it myself since it only expired may of this year and was under a small auto broker ran by the owner- that’s how i got a hold of the vehicle, local and small with a good reputation from the looks of things- the extension was offered so i took it to be extra safe

Make sure the extended warranty covers the battery and warranty, something a few of them do not.

From what i read, it covers the battery, the driving unit, and other electrical components which are not supposed to be replaced like tires, breaks etc.

I’ll get the paper work and post it, since the extended warranty is not from tesla themselves.

The extended extended service agreement (ESA) that was offered by Tesla and as referenced by @wk057 and to be purchase no later than the original 4 yr/50k mile original warranty expired. So with the additional 4 years of the Tesla ESA the total coverage was only up to 8 years from purchase of the vehicle. That's why the Tesla ESA does not cover the battery as the battery was already covered for a full 8 years from the original purchase as part of the original OEM warranty coverage.
For this 2014 vehicle pre AP1 vehicle, if the Tesla ESA had been purchased, it would likely have expired or would be expiring in just a few months as I expect it was put in service before the end of 2014 or very early 2015 at the latest. Some form of extended protection plan by some third party source is really the only plausible option that @Tempbow had included with their purchase.

Your AC drain might have been retrofitted by Tesla at some point or it might have came with the new hose from the factory. My 2014 p85+ has the new extended hose. You can easily check by removing the frunk tub.

i’ll have that done prior to having the car in to get this work done- only one shop is willing to do this job for me- altho they have another job they listed (optional but confused as to what it is). Want to know if anyone here has any information on “Front luggage compartment R&R” is quoted for

I think that’s just their labor to remove and replace the frunk compartment shell in order to access the drain, etc. Make sure this company is legit and knows how to work on a Tesla.

Yeah, they work on sports cars.. however unsure if they have proper experience with teslas. I tried going the tesla SC route but cant get past their Bot so i keep getting re-scheduled
