Could just be fixes as opposed to new features. I have had no problem with the home address (although it does seem to think I live two doors down), but I normally say "Call my wife's mobile" and it calls her, but today it told me that it did not know who it was.

Do you think Mercedes will make an update so I can say "Call the dragons mobile"

LOL perhaps if you store your wife as Dragon in your phone, but not quite sure how that would go down ?

 

Cool, never seen the OTA Update working until now!

When was your car build? How did the update Process work? Does your MBUX have the „Progressive“ theme?

 

Neither did I, which is why I was surprised! According to the portal, the car downloaded the update and then a few days later installed it itself. The update mentioned that the installation can take up to 20 minutes, which I am assuming it can only do if the car is switched on. It also mentions it used the car’s own SIM, so I’m not paying for it.

I collected the car in July, not sure when it was built. I can’t see any difference in the MBUX, but as mentioned it could just be patches. It doesn’t have the Progressive theme, or the online music menu (only TuneIn)

 

Patient 0, I like that ? I have done two map updates, all downloaded on the Me Portal and uploaded to the car via USB stick. Currently on version 250, which appears to be the latest for the UK.

 

A major update requires a reboot of MBUX, which resets all profile information (radio presets, home location etc). This is the same as if you do a reset from the system menu. I don't know if the OTA update warned you to backup your settings. However, if you have backed up your settings then you can restore them - along with your profile.

 

I haven’t lost any settings, radio presets, etc apart from the home location. Everything is as it was, and I wouldn’t have known there was an update if I hadn’t checked the portal.

 

I am also puzzled as to why i get two options for the home address when i say 'Navigate me to home"... Can anyone shed light on this please?

 

One is because your home address is identified in Contacts, the other because your home address is a previous destination.

 

Of course!!! Thnaks

 

Some of these updates might be for certain systems because they are different. Firstly you have language, then left or right hand drive, then you have screen size because things lay out different, then whether you have advance navigation and LED lighting, so I don't know if Mercedes had done "one size fits all" and it is able to adapt or they have different versions for different cars.

So with that in mind, I am in the UK with no advance navigation, the exec pack (7 inch drivers, 10.5 inch multimedia) and I have the progressive theme already. I checked today and had this message on Mercedes Me;

"Always in view: the software updates for your vehicle.
We are working continually on extending and improving our vehicle functions and software. Here you will find an overview of the software updates for your vehicle.

No software updates are currently available for your vehicle.

I think the Progressive Design came with cars being built 2019 or end of 2018 onwards.

 

This subject makes me particularly annoyed ... why is it that only a few cars (2019) have OTA ... but this has already been widely spoken ...

 

Any update on the updates?

Has anyone else recieved OTA Updates for the MBUX (not just the map data)?

 

Nothing.

 

I got a message when I booted the car last night, telling me it was downloading an update to the infotainment. I left it a few minutes, then checked the software update option from the Systems menu and sure enough, the update was there and gave me the option to activate it, which of course required a system restart.


Like the OP, I got a pretty amateurish message purporting to tell me what was contained in the update, but telling me no such thing.


Nothing obvious has changed, though of course it may just be some sort of stabilising patch, which is fine; I just wish they would tell you.


My car was built last July. This is the first OTA update I've had, so maybe newer builds won't need it. But I did read under the map update information in Me, that the automated update option could take up to three months to propagate to all owners. This may have simply been a way of managing expectations, but I've done all my map updates manually, since it is such a simple procedure.

 

Manual Map Updates have been unavailable for ages for “technical reason”

 

Keep trying, it is very temperamental. I was able to check for map updates on the portal last week, but then it wasn’t available when I checked two days ago.

 

Had my second OTA software update today (had two in a week!). The first one was a small download and installed in seconds. The latest update was 68mb and took around 20 mins to fully install and activate following a reboot. Can’t see any major new functionality, however the ‘Understated’ Display has now been removed so I’m just left with ‘Classic’ and ‘Sport’. Had my A200 since September last year. Here’s hoping they add ‘Progressive’ at some point soon?!

 

I had this 68mb update install yesterday even though the portal said it was installed about 2 weeks ago. Can’t see any changes and I also had the same issue with home address no longer found. It also cleared out all my previous destinations which is a bit of a pain. I’ve had car since July.

 

Edit: Understated is actually available via the Displays option in the Drivers Menu.

 

So, with everything happening in the world at the moment, my car did it’s first OTA update yesterday.
Only an infotainment update, and I can’t see anything that has changed. Except for the Mercedes Benz boot logo that has a different animation on startup now.
Anybody know what it actually updates? MB doesn’t provide any release notes that I can find.

 

Could you tell me which version you have right now?

 

Think I’m still on original FU1, as I can’t see a version number anywhere on the car settings. Or I’m just not seeing it.

 

Version is in system->information about or something like that(my default language is different). Check it please. Current version is fup2/063

 

I had this yesterday too, I haven't noticed anything different other than the fact it had reset my home location, my connected phones and my sound settings.

 

I seem to have lost all my map favourites, previous destinations and home/work locations from this OTA update, not sure if they can be retrieved, very disappointed. I have a a 2018 A180 and this is my first ever infotainment update also, can't see anything else has changed. So disappointed in 18 months there have been NO general system improvements or fixes.

 

I got this today ??

 

and? Anything new, or is just an under the hood update?

 

Still downloading.

 

No updates on my side. Last update was in May and it was a very quick 2 minute download. Not a 700mb download like this.

 

I have just had an MBUX update over the air directly to my car. Not sure what has changed apart from I now can see a Mercedes store option on the menu. The software version field is blank so I don't know what version I have. Nice to see updates being rolled out this way.

 

i know there was an update for the maps so maybe that’s all part of it. I got a notification is the Mercedes me app. Have a look in there as it tells you what it’s for.

 

Would be nice if it was the latest MBUX update (FUP3) OTA but I doubt it reading other threads.

It can be done as BMW have just announced on their iDrive: BMW Rolls out massive Over-the-air iDrive update for 750,000 cars

 

Just got an over the air infotainment system update ,size 750 mb the only thing I have noticed that is different is the dab station logos have updated anyone else received this and any other changes noticed

 

Maybe this is why some of my saved stations are no longer accessible. How can I tell if it's had this update?
