With all the uncertainty around this subject, that might very well be the case. I just updated my signature to remove the CIP v19.1.1 reference so that I don't potentially mislead anybody with the wrong info.

I can't get this to work. I can get into the diagnostic menus, but there is so much information on the "Applikation" screen that there are scroll bars. The interface for the diagnostics is very basic, and it does let you use the controller to move over to the "Prev" and "Next" buttons (when applicable for the screens that support it), but does NOT allow you to scroll the Applikation display. Thus, I cannot see the last line. (And trust me: unless there's something really funky you have to do to get it to scroll, there's no way I could see to do it...I'd be happy to take pictures or even video to demonstrate.)

I am taking my car for service next week, I want to upgrade software. What should I tell my SA in order to get a free software update? My last update was around april 2005, back then I complained about flase FTM warnings and that justified the update.
What fixes are there in the latest version?

Yeah, I had mine upgraded only because I needed to. I had the rattling noise from the active steering with the associated malfunction light and the slamming downshift, to name a few. It took them 3 days to do it. I then brought my car back for the Aux Input install and the program crashed so they kept my car for another day. Now my DRL is not working so I have to bring it back but I'm afraid to, to be honest....

They supposedly loaded v19.1.1. I asked my SA which version, she asked the tech and then wrote that on my work order.

No worries...
Hey, maybe I'll get a newer version when they "fix" my DRLs....
