Tesla Motors Club

Just got my M3 and decided to update to 40.50.1. I had some issues with the update but now the software is installed according to the car and the Tesla app. However, if I try to drive it, while all is fine as long as I don't turn the wheel, if I do, the horn blows as long as I'm turning. The neighbors wonder if I'm being kidnapped and honking for help. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, how did you fix it?
I have talked to technical support and they were very helpful but said that after an update it can take several hours - up to 24 hours - for the software to be completely installed. Apparently in complex systems there is a lot of cross checking that is required to fully validate the software and this takes time. I believe the honking is the car telling me that it's not ready to drive yet. So I'm waiting for time to pass and posting this in case someone can add an insight based on a similar experience.
