Hi Friends:

My build date is 4/05 (3/05 should be OK too). A recent bulletin says MP3 for me with 20+ CIP. So, I had my free update to 20.01.00 done today. It only took about three hours.

All is well. MP3 playback works perfectly. And, I haven't noticed any bads. I didn't even have to reprogram my radio stations this time around.

I had to reset a few minor functions--e.g., door locking on dirve off. I forgot to notice whether the lawyer screen goes away by itself, but actually I don't think that 20 is supposed to make it disappear voluntarily on my car. I'll post back if it does disappear by itself. I was hoping for quicker Step shifting, particularly 1st to 2nd in DS, but I haven't had time to decide if it shifts differently. I post back if I think that anything significant changed on the shifting issue.

And, I want to reiterate how high my regard is for my dealer. I usually don't divulge much info, but, given my treatment on all matters, I want to mention that my dealer is super. However, I did complain politely about their recent change in the quality of the free donuts today. They went from Krispie Cream to store bought. Ugh! I also put a suggestion in the suggestion box about the donuts.

I hope you asked for KRISPY KREME donuts and told the dealer never to put out those fake "Krispie Cream" ones, nor those pedestrian store-bought kind.

Cheers.

Thanks for the info. Please do post when you get a chance to thoroughly taste 20+ CIP. Do you have to re-link your bluetooth phone? I had to do so when they upgraded my car to 19 CIP. I hate to do that again.

Znod: I remember you having some RDS issues too. Have they been fixed? Also, any ideas whether pre-March, 05 models will be able to play mp3s?? Mine is a Jan 05 build.

I got CIP 20.00.00 yesterday. Engine control module got updated (to new s/w). If you look at release note, there is one fix for N52 engine. No problem so far.

Some observations after update to 20.01 from 16.

Lawyer screen does go away on it own with cip 20.

BT phone had to be paired with car once again - took 30 seconds with the SE 610.

AS feels "lighter" and somewhat more responsive.

You are very welcome. I had to re-pair when going to 19.01.01, but not with 20.01.00. If I turn up anything interesting, then I'll add the info.
