How interchangeable are, say, all model S's in terms of motors and batteries? Are all battery packs swappable? Will Tesla upgrade one's battery or motor for them if a customer wanted a bigger battery or better motor?

At various times they have indicated that this will be an option (bigger battery), but the reality that it's just not cost effective. You are better off buying another car.How interchangeable are, say, all model S's in terms of motors and batteries? Are all battery packs swappable?

*sugar*. I was watching that auction to see how it went. Are you getting it back to Townsville. I am going to watch the auction tomorrow see how it goes. I would love to help if I can and see you buy. I work at Holden and have volt high voltage training.
That was me. Hopefully its not too expensive a repair. At least this one is classed as repairable so it doesn't have to upset Tesla as much as my last one:$31k for the 2017 Model S 60D, repairable write off. Wow that's a lot of $$$...
I think that's cheap to be honest, for money, I would of taken a punt but NSW WOVR laws I would not be able to register the car again.$31k for the 2017 Model S 60D, repairable write off. Wow that's a lot of $$$...

Last write off was a stat.Good on you for having another go. Do you do the repairs yourself in NZ or here in Australia?
Was your last one a Stat writeoff?
Should of watched Rich rebuilds channel first perhaps. Don't know why you'd sink all your money into a project car. Salvage cars are always a gamble.
Its ok, just needs more work.There's known unknowns and unknown unknowns. I didn't know Tesla were so difficult. I assumed their word meant something. I found I was wrong. Yes, should have watched Rich first. Hindsight is a useless thing
How is it there are so many totalled Teslas at the moment?
Today's Tesla X writeoff auctions sold for 33k and 16k. The latter was pretty well damaged but is heading my way for the batteries and motors for other projects...
