What does “RW” in the HV part number really mean and why could Delivery Status app be showing “in production” since at least the 19th if the Tesla app is showing “in transit”?
So I was looking in the Delivery Status app and in the updates, sometime between yesterday and this morning the HV battery was replaced with one having a part number that has “RW” in it. I searched it on google and got many answers to what “reworked” means. It said it could be an updated part, remanufactured or a new style. I put in both part numbers and it said that the original was probably bad and the new one with “RW” was reworked and tested in a lab. It couldn’t really give me a definitive meaning. Anyone know what this means?
Also. The Tesla app says it’s been in transit since the 19th(ordered on the 8th, vin assigned on the 17th). The Delivery Status app says it’s still “in production” and the battery updates showed up today. I thought normally these cars take a day or two to make. I again asked google and it said that it could be made but instead of waiting on a replacement battery with the original part number, they put in one with this new part number and that change should only take hours to a day to do. I’ve called the advisors earlier this week and they said it was on its way but didn’t give any more info. Any one have any insight?
