Just for the record, I didn't say that it didn't pop up in the car initially, just that I wasn't in the car to check it. When I was in the car testing later, every destination sent was received in the car.

Is this true for AP 1.0 as well? My March P85D is going in next week for the upgrade. Is it going to get HW3?
I just read this to my wife who was not amused. I asked her why and she replied that in our household, this represents reality so it's not a joke

Can anyone with the UHFS confirm their subwoofer is still working with MCU2?
How about AP1 cars? Is AP same, better, worse? I'm still on V8.1 and have to yank the wheel every 20 seconds or so or it'll beep at me to hold the wheel firmly even if I'm already holding it. Really like AP1 with 7.0. It got progressively worse with each update. I finally decided to not update any more but now I'm disconnected from service and my app doesn't work.
I had to schedule the upgrade by phone after listening to a million call tree options saying "You must schedule service through the app". Even the main Tesla customer service number made me climb call trees for 20 minutes before I was able to get a real person.

@viper2ko, We all know this has been true since just about this time, a year ago. I mean accurate starting in Feb/March 2020. But recently we have a couple of AP2 owners that explained the SC folks told them the reason they didn't get HW3 with their MCU2 upgrade was because the price was reduced to $1500.
That makes sense if they have stopped adding HW3. But does it also mean that any non-AP or AP1 owners never should have been charged the full $2500 if AP2/2.5 owners are paying $1500 when they don't get HW3? (I bet I have started some real sugar now, huh?) Sorry.

hmmm, might not be a joke, but its still funny. I think.
I made this exact point in another thread. It would also mean people that paid for FSD and got the mcu2 upgrade for $2500 were paying for HW3. That is a very hairy situation.

So ppl who hadn’t paid for FSD were getting HW3 with their MCU2 upgrade? That is odd...
Yes. I believe the parts are still installed as part of a kit. One S75D that was upgraded last week received the FSD computer upgrade, upgraded from AP2.5 to AP3, when MCU2 installed. However, we have not purchased FSD on that vehicle so it doesn't get all the new visualizations, etc. It is a software update to add FSD now and won't require another visit to the service center.
I did not get it yet. I got hw3 alone for no charge since i have FSD. I will probably get MCU2 by this summer. I want to see how the recall shakes out. I still suspect they will offer more discount on mcu2

Our 2015 MS P85D's UHFS subwoofer is still working after my MCU2 upgrade in December. LOVE the MCU2 speed improvement and being able to use the Tesla browser again... Especially Tesla Waze.
AP works the same as pre-MCU2 upgrade. IMHO AP has constantly improved since AP's "early days" when it acted like it was drunk driving. MUCH smoother now. I use it most of the time.
I upgraded mine yesterday. I have only one comment. MCU1/MCU2 night/day.

About two pounds, after you get the feathers off it.
