I have to acknowledge that it is possible this comes down to coincidence, but hmm...
I've never had an update since taking delivery of my car a couple months ago. That didn't bother me except after hearing about the "chill mode" update I got curious about how many versions I was back, and found a website that tracks these things, which suggested less than 2% of vehicles were on the same version as me. So I hit the forums and called Tesla and everything said the same stuff: make sure you're on wifi; be patient; no rhyme nor reason (Tesla provides, my son. Trust his wisdom and he shall guide you to salvation).
So a month ago I installed a WAP in my garage to be sure the car had a solid wifi connection (that really helped with summoning, btw) but still no update. Today I decide to monkey around with hardware resets and I performed a factory reset. Within an hour, my car is updating its firmware.
Coincidence?
