For the record, I did the upgrade myself (I'm an engineer by trade) about a year ago and not through a third party. Based off the circuit diagrams (supplied by Telsa), the car's wiring is, in all electrical aspects, identical to a RWD P85 AP1 car.
I read several anecdotes from people who have successfully paid Tesla to upgrade their vehicles from MCU1 -> MCU2 even with the retrofit AP1 hardware and configuration settings and have those settings retained. So I took a chance and opted for the same customer-paid procedure.
On a sad note, and like what's been happening all over, I went in for the MCU2 upgrade and Tesla turned off autopilot while I was driving (on AP1 with ACC) to the service center. The IC retains all of the AP1 visualizations (lane lines, cars, etc) but 0 ability to engage AP1. The AP setting is now locked to 0 and every attempt to change it is futile. Tesla keeps pushing the AP=0 option.
@wk057, Is there anything 057Sevices can do for me in this situation? I have an outstanding ticket request through your website on it.
