Unlikely, I'd say. Most dealers don't seem to know how to update them.

Difficult to say but, its VERY unlikely to be the latest.

You might have the latest climate software and the engine software might be (but often isnt) the latest.

I should add that the recommendation is to disable the active fan programs on a climate update.

What does this mean in laymans terms, i.e. what change would you expect to see?

More stable fan speeds!

Certainly autobox update was a fantastic upgrade for me. Highly recommended.
