Anyone here in the EU with the APIM "v4.x.x" its frustrating...

Nope - it’s still not been released in UK / EU - and yes it’s frustrating ?

We will have to go on a hunger strike like the Tesla owners.

To be fair I could do with loosing a few kg ?

In what circumstances? How is it different?

With the DC/DC on, no external supply is needed. All 5 door updates most recently released as well as the the RFA update all fired off with the DC/DC remaining online (as in supplying 12v power instead of using the 12v batt)

Oh, you meant while flashing software rather than normal use. Whether or not the DCDC runs while flashing depends which CAN busses have to be shut down. For some module updates it can stay running, other it has to be shut down, just depends.

'21 models have two new updates this morning (includes EU cars):

I'm not seeing these on '22/'23 models (yet). But I have seen these on both '21 Job 1 and Job 2 VINs I've checked so far, here and in EU.

Hoping these are the first updates towards BC 1.2 this summer.

Is this perhaps the beginnings of Bluecruise 1.2?

I think I read that Bluecruise 1.0 was sent out with 8 OTA updates. Was it all released in FDRS at once or did an update via FDRS require updating a module or two and then waiting for the next batch to appear?

I was planning to do my first FDRS updates next week ('21 J1). I'm very interested in how these go for others first. I assume there's no known SSM or TSB associated with these?

They just showed up, give it a week or two before the official TSB is released. Or maybe they were released too soon by accident and will disappear tomorrow...

I never received that PSCM that came out and was supposed to fix the right lane bias. Maybe this is it being re-released?

These showed up for my 21 Job 2 GTPE. Anyone try them yet and know how long an adventure they are to flash?

I'll be home next week and will give them a try and report back on what I find out! Been away from the Mach-E miss the programming! LOL

Answer: took almost exactly 50 minutes, most of that for the camera module...

 

[Mark Hassa]

Yikes. I figured that CMR would take a while. PSCM modules usually take around 5 minutes or so.
