I tested the feature after the update. I drove to 32mph and stomped on the breaks until the car stopped. But no hazard lights came on. So I guess I don’t have it??

Its not totally definitive as much of it is simply going on what TeslaScope has listed
Tesla Expands Dynamic Brake Lights to New Markets to Avoid Rear-End Collisions | The BRAKE Report
But whilst "The Dynamic Brake Lights function that was rolled out with this specific software update is only available in Model S and Model X vehicles that are operating with at least Hardware 2, according to Teslascope.com." it looks like its been in Europe since March 2019.

A couple of observations.
I was confused and get the impression that others might be too about stepping up and down of speed. Engaging AP / TACC in say a 30mph zone does not step up to 40 or 60 as you drive into a faster limit. If you are in 60 mph zone with AP and enter 30 mph, speed drops to 30. On leaving 30 mph into 60, it reverts to 60. If you had overridden 60 down to say 55 before entering 30 mph, then on leaving 30 back to 60 the speed setting reverts to 55. Some combinations still to be investigated... such as going from 60 zone through 40 to 30 then back to 40 and finally 60.
The second point is that there are often comments about AP only being for freeways / motorways and specifically NOT city driving. Since in the UK speedlimit only works on smaller single carriageway roads, this means it applies only to the kind of roads that supposedly AP is not intended for use on (according to some). Any way, it is certain that many situations that crop up often on the only roads where speed limits and traffic light reconition work are not handled by AP.
Regarding speed limit behaviour, I suspect it has been this way for sometime and I just never used it enough to notice.

Still waiting for the update to 36 here. I'm currently on 32.5.
I've tended to receive all updates to-date really promptly, probably paying my dues down the queue right now.

That is frustrating.
If you bought FSD (a level above EAP) then presumably you will eventually get free upgrade to HW3. I'm not sure what the consensus is with regards to MCU1 vs MCU2, but if it was me and Tesla called me in for the HW3 upgrade as promised,I would certainly consider paying extra for MCU2 just to have everything up to date. Although, I read that they have messed around with warranty cover so upgrades may have much shorter wty than expected.
I had the 2.5 -> 3 upgrade on my S last week. I'm guessing yours is earlier and Elon's dragging it out so all the earlier models get sold on or swapped in. It saves him money and why should he care while he's selling cars and making promises?
whats the issue you are having? Have you tried scheduling it? i had hardware 2.0 on my 2017 X and got it upgraded two months ago (july 1)
Yep, tried to schedule it around the same time as yours and was refused, no explanation.
Have submitted it again now, so we'll see what happens this time.
