RE: System - Updates?

Comment from my dealer yesterday when i asked about which software I have and general software updates:-

"I have no idea how to tell which software version you have i'm afraid and I have been told that there are lots of different software within one car. Software upgrades are not carried out during a service as a matter of course unless it is a nationwaide upgrade progremme that will benefit both the customer and the Land Rover"

Wow..

For a car that has a decent about of tech in it thats a bold statement...

I would of thought they would try and improve the software.. even if its something as small as updating Nav maps i would think there would at least be yearly updates..

I mean look at ford's Sync they constantly get updates..

Does that mean that he knows where the on/off switch is then?

A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.

He doesn't need to - he only needs to be able to tell the user to "switch it off and then back on again"
