Okay, so this will hopefully be my last update on this issue... I got my car back from the Service Center error free, but not before some drama. When I dropped scheduled my appointment, I tried to make it abundantly clear that I had already replaced the 5-way actuator and that ALL i needed...

I am very curious as to what seal they saw deformed. This is what the bottom of the superbottle looks like where it mates to the actuator and you can barely even see the seal. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Ugghh... that would be worse case scenario for me. I already replaced the 5 way valve actuator and I am paying them to do the calibration. If there is an issue with the superbottle, then I'll lose the $45 part cost, $95 calibration cost, and then have to spend nearly $700 to have them go in...

My new actuator is in the car (again) and I have a service appointment on Thursday to run the calibration command. I will let you all know how it goes.

That is the only TSB that I am aware of that involves the 5-way valve. I was just providing a link to the TSB that teSUCKla was referring to in his comment.

As promised, here is my extremely janky yet functional homemade alignment tool. I used a marker to transfer the shape from the actuator to the pvc and just took a dremel to it… it worked WAY better than I was expecting.

I ran the Thermal Performance test and it said the car "failed" ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ The code was still present too, so at this point, I'm just going to assume I dont have the equipment to do the calibration. Apparently, there is a test that the toolbox can prompt the car to do called...

Another update…. I decided to go ahead and try to replace the 5-valve actuator to see if that would fix my issue… it did not…. lol. It did seem to get rid of the VCFRONT_a249 (a code only I seem to be getting), but VCFRONT_a210 was still an active alert. Armed with the knowledge that the...

The official service manual states that the refrigerant loop is impacted if you replace the Superbottle since the new one comes with a A/C heat exchanger. I was only able to find one YouTube video showing the replacement of a Superbottle, but he clearly just unhooks the A/C lines and does not...

It might just be me, but I can't see your attachments.

Yeah, I’m fairly certain it is a problem specific to non heat pump cars. My 2018 doesn’t have that visualization of the cooling system as best I can tell.

Just checking if anyone has made headway on the problem? Also, is anyone else seeing this other error that seems to be related with a210? 2018 LR AWD

Its currently sitting at 79% with a rated range of 196 which extrapolates to 248 miles at 100%. I can run it up to 90% if desired. Warranty would expire at 92,166 miles or 5/4/2023

Currently 67,583 miles but I'm still driving it, so i've got it shown to have 68k miles in the title. I'm not sure what RDM means. It has a well functioning MCU1... it'd be pretty rare if it had an MCU2. The only repairs that have been performed were the autodimming rear view and driver side...

Clean 2015 Tesla Model S 85D. I got it Tesla as a CPO and it has been an amazing car. I'm basically only selling it to save up for a cybertruck. Benefits of buying from me vs Tesla for a similar model: remaining warranty pretty much takes to 100k just like Tesla's. This car has lifetime premium...
