I don’t see much on Salvage FSD in this thread. One post by @Margaritaboy who has a Model 3.
Can you purchase FSD on a car with a salvage title? i.e. does it show up on the app? Would it matter if you had AP2.0? Would it matter if you had HW2 or HW2.5?
If you already have FSD, can you get a service center MCU2 upgrade with a salvage title? If you got MCU2, or already had MCU2 before it was salvaged, can you get AP2.0 cameras upgraded?
If you already have FSD, can you get FSD Beta with a salvage title?

IMO it's a big waste of money to purchase FSD on a salvage car. It will not raise the value of the car barely at all. Especially so if you don't have a HW3 computer.
That said, to the best of my knowledge it IS possible to purchase FSD or enhanced auto pilot on a salvage car. But I do not know whether they will enable FSD beta or not. Would love to find out.

Thanks. Wasn't planning to buy it but seen a lot of salvage cars on auctions already have it included so would be nice to get one and have fun with it knowing that it won't be stripped away like SC.
In case you find this useful, I have EAP and premium connectivity. The only thing that Tesla removed was SC, everything else still works. And I can buy the FSD update from the app, schedule MCU2 upgrade, etc.
I didn’t know they upgraded the cameras, and certainly I don’t know what they gain with that.

Many think so for a non salvage too.
For the first year, the first AP2.0 RCCC cameras probably had better contrast. Did they switch to RCCB better colors because the engineers didn’t think about blue traffic light outside the US? Who knows.
But apparently it is cheaper to replace the cameras than to make two software stacks. Or four, at the moment, since FSD is already two.

I need to reset a MS 2020 TAS, SRS already reset. got toolbox 3, follow steps, Service mode+, GW open, 900 secs, but nothing. Am I missing something?
It has an action for that, reset TAS crash, but in my case even as the car is in service mode + the TAS won't go to Service mode and when I try to reset crash, if fail the test.. I got the GTW unlocked, and service mode + but the TAS ECU is in running mode, not in service mode.
Can you share information on "correcting" DCFC? I have a salvaged Model S, Upgraded MCU2?
Get a wall mount and charge at home. As for supercharging “sell/transfer” car using app to another individual (wife’s email) and your pay as you go supercharging will work again until Tesla turns it off again a week or so. You can tell if you have SC when you navigate to SC and look at details and see how much they charge per kWh (not just idle fees). Takes maybe 5 mins to do transfer
Relatively new salvage owner. I have access to someone with toolbox. Is there a place to look up error codes? Having problems with basic autopilot.
If this is toolbox 2 there is a place in the menu where you can read “Alerts”, and another one to check “DTCs”. It’s a good practice to clear then and see which ones remain (you might need to drive around after clearing the errors).
I have no idea about toolbox 3, but I guess it will have similar functionality.

wait what?
SC re-activates during transfer or am i not understanding this?
