I just updated mine. Loud noise from the back driver side brake calipers is what it sounded like during part of it

Also a bonus, during the update my trunk opened by itself so be aware...

Just installed on mine. No issues.

15min start inhibit update.

Saw this post so when out and moved my car from driveway to the garage, update downloaded and installed. And interestingly I was at 20% and the download started without prompt. I did plug it in and then choose to install it.

Wonder why PAAK was playing up. Always seems to when downloads are coming.

Just in time for our 80º weather this week+

Still fimbulwinter here in MN so I'll be able to test this out over the next week or two. It won't be as cold as Jan/Feb but on longer drives at highway speeds, I often need to toggle between auto heat around 63/64º and max defrost every 5-10 minutes to clear out humidity (happens more often with more people in the car, naturally). Even if I switch off auto and do defrost/floor as options it still fogs up gradually. So I'm hoping this will just let me keep it in auto mode and not get distracted by fine-tuning the climate controls.

Yeah the noise is the coolant pumps in failsafe mode is what I've been told, it's normal.

Seeing how there was one last Fall, I wonder if they're doing some sort of seasonal adjustments and we'll see these twice a year or if it's just general tweaks based on vehicle data to the mothership.

Just finished installing the update. Took about 15 mins. Preset stations disappeared, stuck in unbridle and couldn’t select engage mode which it was in before the update, and Wi-Fi settings gone. Did a sync reset which restored the preset radio stations and could select engage mode. Had to manually enter Wi-Fi settings again. Weird HVAC update.

I like the look of the release notes on this one. The last HVAC update definitely fogs up my windows more in cold weather when left on auto. Had to hit the max defrost button a few times.

My car went through 5 or 6 updates this week, I can testify that it only updated while I was driving period.

They should make park assistant screen go away automatically after you finished parking

EDIT: Never mind, it’s done

How do you know when it finishes? This is my first inhibit update and I don’t want to screw out up by opening the down prematurely…

I assume you are referring to the charge percentage of the high voltage battery displayed on the driver's instrument cluster here where you mention 20%... For updates to be applied, that doesn't matter. It's the 12v battery that must be above a certain charge percentage (75 or 80%... Can't recall the exact right answer). By starting and moving your car you created the opportunity for the car to charge up the 12v from the high voltage battery.
