I bet old MCUs are the one part Tesla actually stocks up on, just to ensure we never get a new one....
They don't have to stock up on them, they just have to refurbish every one that is replaced. Which is likely very easy for them.

Please let us know. I’m not sure they have the methods or the payment system (price) set up yet for this. I have the same problem and will wait either until they do OR til they run out of MCU1! I have 7 years left on my warranty (extended) so I can be patient.VIN 168xxx, I had my MCU replaced for this issue on October 30, 2017. I've just noticed in the past few weeks that my replacement is starting to develop the same issue.
I plan to email the service center and see if I can get it swapped with a MCU2. I don't expect it to be free, but I'm willing to pay for the upgrade.
I doubt it. I don't have a garage so mine is out in the Florida sun all day.We garage our car so it isn't out in the sun all day, I wonder if that's related to the cause?

Same with me. 2-car garage at home, parking garage at work, and my screen has developed this issue.Mine is garaged at home and at work and I have this issue.
Can you please send us a picture of your MCU? At the moment, customers are not able to upgrade to the newest MCU. We do hope in time this is something that is officially released in the future.
My March 2017 X developed yellow ring at the end of last year and the entire MCU was replaced in Feb this year (i posted about it up thread) but now I got the golden ring begin to develop again on the replaced MCU. I am, as others, will give it a few months before reporting in hopes of v2 MCU replacement.
Give it a few years! But rumor has it that they are refurbishing the returned MCU1’s with new screens and using THEM as replacement parts for subsequent issues. But if you wait a long time (I have 6.5 years left on warranty), it’ll likely have to be MCU2 or 3
Why would it have to be? What is to stop them from continuing to refurbish MCU1s?
May 2017 75 and I had the yellow ring develop earlier this year. It took a while to get repair parts in but they fixed it end of June with a replacement display rather than a whole new MCU. So far so good. — DanI just got the yellow ring on my March 2018 Model S with new MCU. I thought it might have something to do with the heat. I garage it at night and keep the cabin overheat protection on at work.
