Had a scare this morning. Notified by Teslafi car went offline for more than 5 minutes (my alarm). Went to check it out. MCU completely blank. No boot cycle or anything. After a few minutes I finally gave it the two fingered salute and it came back up first time with no reboot cycle.
I've never seen it completely dead before. I've had some scary reboot cycles and even once where it cycled for a half hour until I did a manual two finger reset.
It could be a sign of impending EMMC failure. If it fails, you will be downgraded to v10 when its replacemed but if you get the chip changed by one of the third party upgraders now it will last as long as the car andf you won't have to update.
View attachment 515247 Here is my current battery report. I'm out of luck in terms of comparing it to the fleet as I have way more miles.
Loaners I have gotten have been performance limited by service center. Might that have been the case?During the picking up yesterday, I had one of the tech drove with me and we did several 0-60 testing, I have to say the acceleration is actually better than the loaner (12/13 S85) they gave me and doesn't seem that loaner is capped by the batterygate. Can't really tell if it's better than pre-batterygate, but at least didn't lose performance with 350v.
Another thing is the average Wh/mi with the new pack is slightly higher than the older one, around 400Wh/mi based on my ~40 miles of driving yesterday, but that could be because of the weather and elevation (45F, rain), will need more driving to get more data.
I never notice that before but it is possible.Loaners I have gotten have been performance limited by service center. Might that have been the case?
Been tracking this thread since it started, my battery was hit by the batterygate pretty bad, with a "full charge" which I never got even close of 217mi. In reality, the battery barely charges past 208mi.
Got the "Max battery charge level reduced" message a couple of weeks ago and finally got my car back with a replaced battery. The part# shows that the replacement is the 85kWh Tesla recently released, However, the range (~290 mi) is nowa lot better than the original one even when it was new.

Wow, so you are now getting 290 miles at 100% SoC? That’s awesome. I bought my used 2015 S85D last April and was getting 243 miles at 90% SoC. Now 10 months later. I’m only getting 267 miles at 100% charge, about a 1% loss. 240 at 90%.
What software version are you on?
... Forgive my ignorance, but how does one go about getting the battery pack replaced? Do you have to be proactive about it or is it similar to a normal recall where I will be notified by Tesla sometime in the future?
Thanks!
Mine's at the SC right now for "Car needs service, may not restart" and "Acceleration and top speed reduced" errors. I was hoping for the magical "Battery charge level reduced" or whatever it is. Sounds like a battery heater issue. Probably out of warranty. Sinking more money into this car that is becoming less and less usable.
I did mention while there about the abysmal supercharging rates now, and got a relative shoulder shrug.
Sigh.
I just recently purchased a 2015 Model S 85D with 32,000 miles on it. The car is beautiful and runs superbly. Super Charging does take about 30% longer, but I charge at home, so no real issues. You guys are kind of freaking me out as to possible battery issues in my future. Should I be concerned? What are your thoughts? I am still under warranty until 2023. Thanks.
