Which Software Updates?: Second Service

[securespark]

Wondering if any software updates will be carried out automatically?

Should I ask for them?

Infotainment I'm not too bothered about, but the safety stuff Which? magazine has been reporting on should be done, shouldn't it?

Trophy LR 23 with rear wiper.

SC077 (LKA fix) should be done. If it isn't I'd kick up a stink.

What infotainment release are you currently on? The latest release plus HVAC module update vastly improves the performance of the HVAC system ... well it does on my SE, so I'd presume it would do likewise on the Trophy.

Thanks.

Just had a look.

Under Entertainment system version it says R40.

 

[siteguru]

There's been R46, R59 and R63 (latest) since then.

 

[securespark]

Is R63 worth the update? Assuming the dealer will do it F-o-C?

Jumping on this thread... Sorry! I'm off to look at a trophy over the weekend it already looks to have the newest HVAC update but how do I tell if it's got the lka fix installed?

Easy. Does the car try to drive you off the road, or not?

Makes sense I'll see if I need to change my undies after the test drive then

Seriously though, is it worthwhile getting the SC077 update? , I have the 1st gen - so LKA defaults to off, as the LKA literally tries to kill me on my SE (so every service I've requested No Updates) - just come back from a 2 week break where I hired a ford focus Auto, although the car wasn't as smooth to drive as my SE, what was nice was the LKA, which just gave a friendly nudge every now and then

After the update mine on the default setting doesn't even give me a nudge, just beeps at me.

 

[securespark]

That sounds good.

It may only be a small nudge, but most people I know who have one, their default human reaction to the software-induced steering nudge is a disproportionate** reflex steer in the opposite direction, even when they get used to the system and know what is coming.

**Apologies, my brain cannot find the exact word I want here. Basically, the word I'm looking for means that the steering wheel may only make a small movement, but the driver tends to make a larger movement in response to that.

Mine doesn't, I just get beeps, but I am on R30. How can I check the modules for what versions I'm on?
