Yay Hardware upgrade CPU and memory

So is this only for pre-2025 vehicles? Or does it only show up if you have a service center to go to (so not Denver)

What? Every new phone comes with what's new in that version. When did you bought a phone that didn't had a new feature, upgrade or functionality?

Nearly every phone today. They increase in specs, camera megapixels, or whatever, but form factor has largely remained the same (fold phones excepted).

When did Apple launched a new version of the product that didn't had new capability or pitched an OS upgrade without new capability.

OS has nothing to do with a hardware upgrade. Manufacturers release hardware upgrades annually for phones and computers. Software to utilize those new capabilities does not always come at the same time.

Sometimes it is just a spec bump. This happens literally all the time.

I’m not sure what you’re arguing about. Look at literally any iterative phone or computer hardware release of the last two decades.

The first image shows the old unit, which used passive cooling, while the second image shows the new unit with an added fan for active cooling.
The replacement was done by a Lucid Mobile Service technician and took about 2 hours to complete.

So that 20 dollar fan is now the single point of failure...

Looks like there’s a heatsink, too.
A high-end CPU fan can last 100,000 hours, outlasting the car.

I would be interested in know if the cockpit panel runs hotter after the upgrade.

I think I read here that the CCC module is in the passenger footwell, not behind the cockpit panel.

Exactly. Using a sealed bearing. Heat sink fans generally stopped failing when they stopped using the garbage bronze bearing.

It will fail when V3 comes out and you have then reason to upgrade
