Funny, my experience is the opposite. Since they turned on the wifi, all my updates have come while the car in the garage, on wifi, or while in the SvC, except for this last one.

Firmware 7.1 - For Classic Model S
- Thread starter Cyclone
- Start date
How do you know this?
Remember, the "clock" doesn't show up until after the update has been downloaded and validated. Thus, even if you weren't on wifi when the clock appeared, it doesn't mean that it wasn't downloaded (mostly, if not completely) while on wifi.
Had a recent update to 2.20.45 (according to VT). Since then, the passenger airbag disabled icon started randomly appearing. Rebooting seems to have fixed it, but will be keeping an eye on it as it may not be a firmware bug. Anyone else seen this?

On Monday I connected my car to WiFi for the first time in the nearly 3 years I've had it. Today the car said the maps had been updated, a first for my vehicle as far as I'm aware.
It could be coincidence, or there might be something to the Wifi/cellular differences claim.

I did not get a notification that maps had been updated but now i see bus stops, not sure if that is new or i never noticed it before..
The bus stops might be a function of a change to the underlying Google data feed, rather than an actual map update.

Model S - PURE EV
I'm still on version 6.X. Just curious if Google maps is now showing elevations. It would be nice to have during a longer road trip
Seems like the updates for the last month are giving all the love to the autopilot cars. I'm still on 2.22.50. Anyone with a sub-20000 VIN get any later build updates? Any changes?
It's starting to appear we are at the end of the software update life cycle for our ancient vehicles. I guess ver 8 will tell us for sure.
At least I still get the occasional map update!

I have 2.28.19 running. That being said, I would agree the SW is winding down for the pre-AP Teslas, and the be honest, I find my Model S SW to be stable and happy. Hopefully they will continue to refine things like the media player and the nav and those changes will eventually be released. It will be interesting to see if 7.x is the end of the line for our older cars.

I'm relatively happy with the firmware now (still many gripes from the 6.2 version), but if they aren't going to update the core firmware, I sure hope we at least get Nav updates/improvements and things like Media Player and dare I say it, a browser update??!
That's right, map updates are only downloaded by Wi-Fi. Firmware updates can be cellular, Wi-Fi, or at the service center. There have only been two map updates.
We'll likely get the UI update of version 8 and whatever updates there are for media, navigation, and web browser. So basically everything but autopilot which we don't have. I don't feel slighted with updates in having a pre-AP car.
