Interesting. My MCU1, I have noticed, has been SUPER laggy (moreso than usual) with the FSD computer upgrade.

I did, but then turned it off and unplugged the USB, and it didn't seem to make a difference.
I have MCU1/AP2. I made an appointment for infotainment/FSD last week for June 9. I just had it moved to June 23 and approved the invoice. Only strange thing was a "minimum labor charge" of $39. Is that normal? I'm not sure it is worth arguing. I'm crossing my fingers they will have the parts needed for my appointment in 3 weeks.

Can Infotainment + FSD upgrades be done via mobile service? I have received the email for FSD and have decided I want to Infotainment upgrade as well.
I believe the HW3/FSD upgrade can be done at home, but the Infotainment Upgrade (MCU1 to MCU2) is done at a service center.
But, I have read some service centers requite the FSD/HW3 upgrade to be done at their service center (but not all).
Definitely everything except atari games take a good 10-15sec to start up. Youtube Hulu and Netflix all lag very bad when navigating. What test can you do on MCU2?
No labor. Should be 0.00.

I was told it had to be done at the SC. And that is where it went...

Hey everybody - I ordered the FSD computer installed in my 2017 S and thought I would be paying $2500 and getting the MCU swap as well. But they only swapped the HW 2.0 to FSD. $0 charge. Of course I'm happy to have kept my money, and glad to have FM, but what's the skinny on what I can expect from the car? Why were they recommending the MCU change originally?
I didn't know it was an option not to have that done. Thx

Is there another thread about people trying to do the MCU1 -> MCU2 swap and getting Tesla to do the FM&XM radio provisioning? I saw the thread where someone hacked it together themselves, but I want to retain FM and XM (even if I have to pay Tesla additional).

FSD/HW3 is already available in Europe (at least in Switzerland !). I have an appointment on the 18th of June for FSD/HW3 upgrade confirmed and may be MCU2 upgrade as well (to be confirmed). Model S 12/2017 (HW2.5 / FSD).
that was before the wiring diagram existed or people started selling the needed cables. I plan on trying this, was curious if anyone else was as well.

That physical wiring wasn't the problem tho so you point doesn't make any sense as far as I can tell. It needs to be configured.

I was told today by the service center in KCMO that they are currently not doing AP upgrades via mobile service after having a bunch of failures. Must have changed in the last week because they were at my house last week attempting to upgrade mine (missing backup camera cable) and told me attempt #2 will have to be done at the SC.
Asked to just add the MCU2 upgrade into same appointment and now waiting on that part.
