Q261 - ECO START STOP SYSTEM INOPERATIVE & VEHICLE SOFTWARE UPDATES - donot521 - 16-07-2013 05:53am
I just had this software updated today
with this software I feel the car is more smooth (in the right gear) and definitely better MPG
before the update, the gears were not in the right place at all
However I am wondering, If I didn't do the update, will it affect the car overall? like the engine and transmission..etc
Because right now my car has 2k KM on it, and I hope those 2K KM (without update) won't affect the engine and stuff....
Thanks

I thought all North American spec cars were petrol engined automatics, can you get diesel manual gear box Evoques in Canada?

Mine is listed as needing it -- and I am an auto/petrol car. Haven't done it yet and not really sure what they "do" on an auto/petrol car.

Then what your car will get is what my auto diesel had - the battery management system update is also part of the stop/start update. If you leave your car unused for any length of time the update makes a difference to battery live

Scrannel it just updated the battery management system. But the transmission shifting has been altered little i noticed when i got it back. When your in D and use the paddles to downshift because your on a grade it holds the gear till the grade is flat. Never use to do that, I have to move to S to keep it in the gear i want till it flattened out.

Just fyi, topix is now showing that they are on ver3 of this update !
I think the version applied to mine was ver2
Not sure what the difference is.

Looks pretty recent cjfp (assuming Topix bulletins are in date order), haven't had a letter or got it applied to mine yet! Have't had time to get to a dealer, glad I didn't go out of my way since sounds like it will need an update again. Does it show as an Outstanding compaign against yours again since having it done cjfp?

I never got a letter or call the first time - i made them aware of it.
No, it shows that i have nothing outstanding showing on topix.
