Thinking about purchasing a 2017 100D for 28k with 102000 miles. Warranty (on the powertrain and battery) is 8 years with unlimited miles. I understand Tesla allows warranty transfers even if you are 3rd or 4th owner. Still should have over a year and a half of powertrain warranty if previous is...

The part was $250 Diagnose $245 and labor was $600+, was told if it was a dual motor price would be more.

I don't have any actual diagnostic code numbers. What kept showing on my center dash was three rotating messages. 1.) "Acceleration and top speed reduced, performance may be restored on next drive" I did not notice any reduction 2.) "Vehicle may not restart, service is required" It started...

A pleasant UPDATE: So after dropping the S off at the Dealer on Monday. I got a new estimate of $925 Monday night! Further diagnostics showed the short was not internal [within the main battery] but rather somewhere else externally. They discovered the electric battery heater (1038901-00-K) was...

So I dropped the MS off at the dealer today and I'm told it should likely be ready this Friday. Although I'll be surprised if it happens that soon, Tesla did style me with a nice loner S. Recell did provide an estimate which was going to be $9200 plus delivery and my cost on a rental for a few...

FYI, Gruber has a nine to twelve month waiting period.

I'm in contact with Re-cell via email now. Awaiting the cost, will update. Curious if it has to go to Texas or do they have a facility in SoCal.

So I'm faced with quite a dilemma. 2013 Model S 60 in excellent shape EXCEPT it showed a warning on the dash. "car needs service, may not restart." I set up an appointment and the estimate came back just over 14k! Went to the dealer today to have it explained. I was told it was diagnosed with a...

Curious if Tesla has started installing lithium 12v batteries in the 2023 YLR. If so, is it the Ohmmu brand, someone else or has Tesla got its own?

Thanks for all the help. Did the latest software update....we'll see. It seems for my car once every three to four weeks or more was the norm for a reset. So far so good.

Sorry I should have included that. Yes I upgraded to the MCU2 about six months ago.

Lately my 2013 Model S has needed to be awaken with pressing the two wheels on the steering wheel. That has not been the norm. Could this be a sign that my 12v battery is tired?

Lately I have to get into my sleeping 2013 Model S and wake it with the two button press that takes about 3 minutes. Not always but seems to be happening more frequently as of late. It has MCU2, and when it's like this the phone app does wake it either. Any Ideas?

Yea we're in the same boat. I think Gruber will repair a 60 and being in socal I can get it there. The actual time that buys no one knows. Love the car, upgraded to MCU2 (huge improvement). Was hoping to hear of others out there who've reached 200k on the 60 pack, so far only crickets. Best of...

Yes it is a 60 and I get that it is not an either/or situation. With mine dropping only 12 miles of range in over 8 years I feel that's very acceptable. Along with the fact that it has almost never been supercharged. First appearance is the she is in great shape. But is she really? Do owners of...
