    Tesla infotainment system upgradeable from MCU1 to MCU2

    Which Service Centre are you going to? I’m curious which one is confused about the need to replace the IC....might indicate they haven’t done many MCU2 upgrades.

    Tesla infotainment system upgradeable from MCU1 to MCU2

    Could you confirm if you paid the published price of CAD$3510 +tax? And did that include a new touchscreen? Thanks!

    MCU Upgrade - Canada

    I understand that the IC is replaced as well, since it is slaved to the MCU2. You can confirm by rebooting (steering wheel scroll wheels) - it will reboot both screens now, not just the MCU. Thanks for the report - glad it went well.

    Is the insane lack of email responses/customer service I am experiencing common?

    Yes, your experience is typical. I find from a service perspective, Tesla doesn’t respond to text or email messages and calls go to vmail and are never responded to. I have found that the best (only) way to get responses is to obtain the email of the manager at your local Service Centre and...

    MCU Upgrade - Canada

    I would do the MCU2 upgrade — a refurbed MCU1 will have the same performance issues with browser and voice commands, etc. Curious how the price keeps increasing for this upgrade. I believe it was initially $3310 and now as per this link: Infotainment Upgrade it is $3510; do you know why...

    Silly question

    Plugshare will often indicate costs for charging, however it’s not 100% reliable. If it indicates the name of the charging network, go to their site and check whether there is a charge.

    MCU Upgrade - Canada

    As per this link, it seems the MCU2 warranty is now 2 years. https://www.tesla.com/sites/default/files/downloads/tesla-parts-accessories-body-repair-limited-warranty-en-us.pdf?redirect=no

    NHTSA Investigates Failing MCUs

    Do you have a link to a Tesla document that cites the 4 year warranty for purchased MCUs? I’d like to pass it on to Tesla service. Thanks in advance.

    Does anyone know what the warranty is on the new HW3 computer, if you are beyond the regular 80K km vehicle warranty?

    HW3 Upgrade

    For Model S owners —. I had a HW3 upgrade scheduled through mobile service but Tesla Service advised that MS upgrades are recommended to be done in a Service Centre, so it was rescheduled

    Bizarre new screen display bugs while charging

    Did the reset solve it? This has happened to my 2017 MS75D every few months for the past couple of years. It is a known issue per the SC.

    Rear door unlocks and opens when approaching the car.

    This happened to my 2017 MS75D. The SC fixed it under warranty by “replacing and recalibrating” the Door Handle controller. It took about an hour. Here’s the part number from my service order: ASSEMBLY, DOOR HANDLE 3.0 CTLR (1069651-00-D)

    Passenger door opens by itself

    “Replace and recalibrate” is a quote from the service order. This was all done by the Service Center under warranty so I don’t know exactly what they did.

    Canadian Tesla Startup sound repeats every minute!

    This was my situation although the dashcam was just rebooting every minute. I had come to associate the startup sound of the dashcam with the car since the dashcam went on to declare events recorded etc. If the Teslacam had been there when I bought the car, this would not have happened!

    Canadian Tesla Startup sound repeats every minute!

    Mystery solved! Thank you for your comment — the sound is coming from my dashcam. I sat in the car with the Tesla tech and we both heard the sound coming from behind the dash.

    It’s not the seatbelt chime. It’s a 5 note sequence.

    Canadian Tesla Startup sound repeats every minute!

    That’s interesting. I’ve heard this startup sound every time I get in the car since buying in September 2017. It’s a 5 note sequence, a bit like the Windows startup tones.

    Canadian Tesla Startup sound repeats every minute!

    My S75 is replaying the startup sound (chime) every minute. Has anyone else experienced this? Apparently US cars do not have a startup sound. I’m currently in the US and Tesla support is baffled. After a reboot or hard shut down didn’t solve it, a Mobile tech disconnected the 12V battery for...

    Cruise not available. GPS stuck.

    I experienced this behaviour periodically between Oct ‘17 and Feb ‘18. Only ‘hard’ reboots of the car would temporarily solve it. In February, I took it into the SC. They saved my settings and then did a factory reset and reloaded the latest update (2018.10). It took them about 3 hours and...

    Canada - Maps update?

    I’m still on 18.12 but the new maps arrived this morning! May have been coincidence but I just installed a range extender to provide a strong wifi signal in the garage; previously, all my updates came over LTE. The dashboard display seems faster, love the new features, including the new voice!

    Canada - Maps update?

    We did a trip to the Sarasota area and used Superchargers all the way. There was no need to find alternatives en route and many hotels have L2 chargers, some are Tesla chargers, even some with a Supercharger in their parking lot. Use your nav or one of the planning tools to map it out. Just...

    Autopilot on GTA Highways (401/404/DVP) - Worth it?

    I would encourage you to get the AP option, not only for all of the reasons cited above, but because you must order AP just to get Adaptive Cruise Control. Even if you have concerns about AP, the ACC will make your commute much easier. Beyond rush hour commutes, AP and ACC really make long...

    Nav system freezes

    This was the route that the SC took yesterday. They saved my settings and then did a factory reset and reloaded the latest update - 2018.10. Quite painless - I only needed to reprogram my homelink settings. We’ll see if this fixes it. The SC tech said they have seen more cases of a Nav...

    Nav system freezes

    Thanks for the info on your previous problems and the links to the other threads. I talked with Telsa support today and they said these GPS/Nav stuck reports have reduced in frequency. He also said he would push a 'reset' (not an update) to my car. He reiterated that leaving the car parked...

    Nav system freezes

    Thank you for the reply. The freezing usually happens when I have a route plugged in but at least once it was frozen when I was leaving my garage with no route. I also can't correlate the freezing to any one other action like using the audio system or other function. The GPS does seem to be...

    Nav system freezes

    I have a Sep 2017 built MS75D. The nav system has frozen 7 or 8 times over the past 4 months - usually after the car has been parked, at least once while driving and using the nav. Rebooting the MCU does not solve this. The only solution is to stop, and use the power off switch to completely...

    Reduced Battery Life

    The interactive tool is still on the Tesla site. Unfortunately it only goes as low as -10C and is quite optimistic - for my 75D, it indicates a range loss of about 12% at -10C with heater on. My experience was a 50% loss at -15C. As with many EPA type test results, YMWV!

    Reduced Battery Life

    Perhaps you weren't keeping it a secret but Tesla sales team certainly was! When i asked about cold weather performance, I was told it was not significant -- due to battery heating. It would have been nice to know to expect a 50% range penalty in cold temperatures, or to have been given a...

    Reduced Battery Life

    I experienced a similar loss of range today. Drove 135 km but lost 210 km of range - that's more than a 50% premium. The outside temp was -20 C; I started out immediately after charging the car, preheating the battery and preheating the cabin in my garage; cabin heater was set to 17.5 C and...
