Finally some relief for us long suffering MCU1 owners, upgrades to MCU 2 are starting in the US Infotainment Upgrade USD $2,500 x 1.6 + GST = $4,600 best guess for NZ pricing. I have a 2017 MXP with HW 2.5 and MCU1, hopefully I'll be among the first in NZ to be offered it. Please post when you get the offer to upgrade.
Hm. Based on how busy and (non-)responsive NZ service seems to be at the moment, I'd be surprised to see them doing MCU upgrades soon.
NZ SC are pretty busy - but they have done a good job for me on warrantee work - but yes would love to see the MCU upgrade available in NZ sooner rather than later - would revitalise my 2015 MS
HW3 and MCU2 upgrades are underway in Australia. MCU2 upgrade cost AU$4,000 Source: https://twitter.com/13arm13arm/status/1334737555074342912 I got an email on Friday 4-Dec saying the parts for my HW3 have been ordered. I’ll request MCU2 at the same time. MCU1 sucks so badly, this is going to be awesome upgrade.
MCU upgrade parts ordered: $4,376 without radio. The radio was an extra $865 (I never listen to radio, so skipped that). Hopefully the upgrade will be done with the HW3 in Jan 2021
