Hi everyone! I'm having a frustrating set of issues and wondering if anyone here has any thoughts on what the culprit might be.
I'm the original owner of a 2017 Model S 75D. It's otherwise perfect.
When my Model S is in my home garage, I experience a variety of issues. These issues do not happen anywhere else (e.g. parked at my office, supercharging, parked/charging at friend/family houses, Tesla repair center, etc...). I believe this started sometime in the last 3 years...something I've largely lived with. But it is getting worse, especially as the MCU1 shows its age more and more.
Has anyone experienced this? Or am I alone?

Issues (Only Happens at Home)
- Every 5-10 minutes (constant loop), the MCU screen flashes (darkens a bit). When this happens:
- Bluetooth disconnects then reconnects
- Wifi disconnects then reconnects
- Touchscreen becomes temporarily slow/unresponsive
- There is an audible "click" sound
- HVAC resets
- Audio resets
- Pressing the button on my charge cable (Tesla wall connector) won't open the charge port - note that if I take my charger with me and charge elsewhere, the button opens the port fine. Buttons on supercharger cables open the port fine.
- Reported to Tesla. They see the repetitive errors in the logs. Upgraded my memory chip. Reset software to factory settings. Cleared out cache. Had me bring in my charging cable. They can't reproduce the issue in their service center, so basically gave up. No resolution from Tesla.
- Perform my own resets of the MCU, including complete factory resets.
- Remove Bluetooth connection for several days. No change.
- Remove the garage Homelink connection for several days. No change.
- Forget all wifi connections for several days. No change.
- Moving the key fob very far away from the garage while the car is parked (in case it's keeping the car alive).
