Tesla remotely converts battery pack, cutting 1/3 of range

All upgrades (e.g., FSD, acceleration boost) stay with the car. This is huge source of frustration for those of us who purchased FSD, but want to move to another car while retaining FSD.

All upgrades stay with the car unless the used car dealer is Tesla themselves.

True. Tesla is double-dipping here. They also tend to enable FSD for many of their used models, which is frustrating because I don't think FDS is worth the $7K I spent, and definitely not the current $12K.

Ah, that may be the source of my confusion. I'm probably not the only one having heard things get removed, though. So their reputation is doing them no favors.

Well, it can be more complicated than that. Each upgrade can have it's own T&C and they maybe introduce an update, that stays with the driver.
