    Infotainment upgrade worthwhile?

    Do the upgrade - you will be glad you did. I did it 2 years ago for $1500 ($1695 with labor) and it was well worth it. I don't play many of the games (only one while supercharging) but the other software updates are very nice to have. Rebooting takes a minute or two instead of about 5 min. Just...

    Glad to see more availability for extended warranties. Please let us know when the website is updated and will just give us an estimate without having to surrender our personal data.

    General questions about ordering in NY

    Just ignore that article - it is flat out wrong. It seems to have been written before AI, so it can't be an AI hallucination. No annual fee except for car registration itself, as mentioned in the other post.

    Tesla Messed up DMV Registration; took car away and gave me a loaner

    Drive the heck out of it and take some long trips if possible and take advantage of the free supercharging while you can.

    Frunk fails to unlatch consistently

    How many miles on the car? If < 50k miles then yes, it should still be covered. They may cover it anyway. Best to open a service request and see what they say.

    2014 85 MCU2/AP1 Latest Firmware

    Normally when an update is available will see a yellow download indicator on the screen, and a notification in app. When you touch the yellow download indicator it will tell you to connect to wifi. If connected to wifi the download indicator will be green and update will automatically download...

    2014 85 MCU2/AP1 Latest Firmware

    After my MCU2 upgrade I believe it took about week for me start getting later versions. You can try setting the software update preference to advanced If not already set that way.

    Winter 2023 update sucks

    What version of software did you get? There were several bug fix versions released (2023.44.30.5.1 and 2023.44.30.1 are the latest) - possibly it was already fixed in a later update?

    Anyone install Update 2023.44.30.4

    FYI - Looks like 2023.44.30.6 is now out and getting a wide push. I have it installed already but haven't been able to test.

    Anyone install Update 2023.44.30.4

    I have AP1 and MCU2. I installed that update and took a 180 mile all highway trip. I should have waited. No difference in the nags, however AP is now a bit harsh on braking, TACC frequently waits until the last possible second before it jams on the brakes (which is very unnerving), it now...

    Your car software up to date as of…

    I noticed that too. But it has also changed several times. I cannot remember what version of software I first saw it, but it changed to once every 24 hours. Then another update it changed to once a week, now it seems to be back to every 2 or 3 days.

    Maximum battery charge level reduced - warranty about to expire

    I had something that needed to be fixed right before the warranty expired and the 1st appointment was after the warranty. I took pics, uploaded them in the app to show the issue and they said no problem. It was fixed at the next service appointment. I think once documented Tesla will do the...

    Dont Feel Break Regen as much

    Regen is affected by charge and temperature, however, I see changes in regen after software updates. In IMHO if regen is working (even if less than it used to be) I think it is likely caused by changes to regen due to software updates rather than an issue that service center can fix. So, save...

    Opinion on selling 2016S90D Do I sell with supercharinging or transfer it to new Model S

    My thoughts - I would transfer the supercharging to the new car and sell the old without it. Electricity is only getting more expensive and its value to you will increase over time.

    Tint My Model S Plaid Sunroof?

    When I had my sunroof tinted last year I wanted to go 35%. The installer said due to some reported heat issues on the roof of the car he recommended 50% on the roof and if I wanted to go to 35% I would have to fill out a waiver. Heat and UV rejection was the same, so I went with the ceramic...

    I believe the accessory outlets will power down when the car is sleeping. Open the app and go to Service > Range and run a detailed analysis. It will show you usage and impact on range.

    I upgraded to MCU 2 and I have a keyboard dilemma

    Hopefully they will just remotely connect to the car to fix it and then close out the request. I would also ask them if they can just send you the info so you can enter it yourself. I hope you are Slacking soon!

    I upgraded to MCU 2 and I have a keyboard dilemma

    Yes, that shows you are entitled to it. Looks like when they upgraded your MCU they didn't sign back in to streaming music with the account that is generated for your car. You will have to contact Tesla to assist. You can use the app to open a new case, or if the service center is close to you...

    Purchased Tesla 2017 Model S 90D, Received 60D

    Personally, as others have said, I think you should unwind the deal get all your money back, which includes fair value for your trade in - not whatever they wholesaled it for. It will end costing you a whole lot more to fix the car than the paltry $3k they offered you to go away. You will always...

    Model S Refresh XPEL Quality Issues?

    Sounds like The Works? I have 2 cars that they ceramic coated and put Xpel on the headlights on one. Did a nice job and the folks seem very nice. I did point out something missed on one car and they took care of it right away. I would be interested to hear what they say.

    Advice/Recommendations First Time Owner Used Model S P100D 2016

    Congrats, and I know will enjoy the car. I too recommend the MCU2 upgrade. Based on the photos of the screen you included, the center screen looks like it is leaking and needs to be replaced anyway. The MCU2 upgrade replaces both screens, so (IMHO) doing the MCU2 upgrade would be the best...

    IRO DashCam - Model S AP2 unboxing

    Mine works, but it is soooo slow accessing it via the app that I do the same thing - look at it on the computer. One thing I did find out is that if you run a VPN on your phone you need to disable the VPN or the app will not connect to the camera.

    Purchasing this model S - good deal?

    Personally, It would be a hard pass for me. I would find one in better condition. The front and rear bumpers, both right side doors, QTR panel, hood and rims have been spotlighted as damaged. What a mess. It will bug you as long as you own it and repair cost may be significant. As mentioned...

    Key fob stolen. How to remove?

    If pin to drive is available for you I would set that until you can get the FOB removed by the SC. They may be able to get in but won't be able drive off with it. I also recommend emptying the glovebox but don't lock it - they may destroy the interior trying to open it.

    2016 Model S wants to leave road when Autosteer engaged

    Does it make a beeline for the right lane marker then correct itself to stay between the lines or does it continue to pull off the road? What software version are you running? Some older versions exhibited this behavior (pulled right then corrected) but I haven’t had that happen in about 2...

    Mistakes made. Anyone have an idea how much I will be dinged for this on lease return?

    Agreed. Don't waste any more money. Find a good detail shop. They will let you know if it can be removed. They may be able to steam it out.

    New vehicle purchase frustrations

    They tried to do that with me back in 2019. I was buying a used MS from them. Had everything set with trade in but there was unexpected damage on the MS so I declined the car and found another one well with the 30 days. Right before buying they reneged on the trade in price and I told them to...

    small screen delaminating, two options, need advice

    They replace both screens with the upgrade. You keep lifetime connectivity. FM is gone unless you buy the FM radio option with new MCU2. I upgraded and did not get the FM option. I don't miss FM at all. You can always add it later.

    I have iOS 16.4 Beta 2 and LuckCam 5.1.3 running with no issues. It has worked through all the iOS upgrades I have installed in the past 2.5 years - keeping my fingers crossed! The last LuckyCam update was 5 months ago. It does work, but it may not be compatible with something you are installing.
