As another poster already confirmed, yes. ...and your MS is still gonna occasionally wake up to check back with the mothership for other purposes, so it makes sense it would to both download and ready a new update for installation.Will updates wake up the car? I've recently turned on the power management settings and turned off always connected to save on vampire drain.
FWIW, I keep Always Connected Checked. My tests of all combinations of both energy options last Fall clearly showed it was less than 1 mi/day impact on my S90D to have near immediate response to occasionally check in with my MS via the Tesla App or Remote S, opposed to unchecking that option as you have, and perhaps having to wait several minutes for the MS to connect. (FWIW, by itself, Energy Savings OFF was +/-2 mi vampire impact/day -- I keep mine ON as you are.) It's your call certainly, and the options are there. It's just a couple of data points if you've not gone through the impact testing yourself.
