Firmware 5.14

[pgiralt]

Yes, this makes sense. The 5.14 release has a later release number and probably has code not present in 6.0. There will likely be a 6.1 (or something like that) that includes both 6.0 and 5.14 features. Until then, those on 5.14 are stuck.

I was told the something at the SC today. Cars with 5.14 have to be updated via over the air download. Maybe because the code in 5.14 is newer than the code in 6.0? In this regard, someone posted that the cars with speed alert and lane departure are running 5.14, as 6.0 is not compatible with these features.

And the plot thickens. The 1.65.11 flavor of 6.0 included an owner's manual that documented both these features. Odd result unless they "did something unusual" with source control management. Or the manuals are not stored in the same management system.

Boo!

Very often the documentation is completed long after the code is completed. And not at all in the same code base.

I agree. My point is that this is an example of the reverse, it seems, Bugeater.

Any news on an update available from 5.14 to 6.0?
Still stuck on 5.14 :-(

on the Got 6.0 thread, someone mentioned that those on 5.14 can now be updated with latest release of 6.0. I called the SC and they were checking if they could update for me. Fingers crossed

The Rockville SC successfully updated my P85 with 5.14 to the latest version of 6.0 that was released a few days ago (1.67.27 I think it is). This build is later than the 5.14 build.

+1 on Swegman's point. Got the update at the SC today. Running the install this evening.
