I have recently been to service and had a frustrating experience where the techs could not fix the issue as presented, though they acknowledged it. The solution was literally to wait for a couple of updates and see if they would fix things automagically. If this is an issue with my car, maybe it is an issue with others as well?
In the past I had been used to a bug where the rear audio including door speakers and subwoofer would drop out at times. In almost every case a 2 button MCU reset fixed the issue and I had audio back.
When I recently got a new MCU a few months ago due to a USB issue (USB dead could not be fixed with a new wiring harness or USB unit) this problem went away entirely for a while. For a few months, the audio was rock steady, and the USB issues were totally fixed. I was super happy and back to the Tesla experience. Not sure if that MCU was new or refurbished. I imagine they might have had some extras, since tons of early model 3's were getting HW3 MCU's.
Now I am back to listening to all music in the most horrible of formats, with just the tweeters working. First world problems I guess...
I hope that this issue is something others are having as well because if it's just me I don't see a lot of hope that some programmer is just going to fix me. I guess I need to be patient somewhat as they might do just that.
In possibly related or unrelated mention- The MCU itself also lags significantly every about 10-20 seconds. If I have the backup camera on, it will drop frames regularly. If I am playing sky force it will basically try to kill me by going to 5 fps every 10-20 seconds. I cannot prove this is related or unrelated.
I asked them for another new MCU but they didn't really respond to that request and I didn't get pushy. I'll be patient and try to wait for a firmware update to see if that is fruitful.
