Had mine updated to 1940 this morning. Worth it alone for the improved resolution of Apple CarPlay.
Strange that they want to change brake fluid, as a new car's first change is usually at 3 year then every 2 years. I had mine tested in the past and it was still ok even at 3 years old.
The call came from Cupra UK not my dealer so I never questioned it tbh. I've always done it, or had it done every 2 years on my cars regardless.
The first brake fluid change on VW’s is now also due at 2 years (then every 2 years), rather than at 3 years, so it may be a VAG thing across all the VAG brands.
Well I've collected my Hybrid this morning and I'm glad to say it's now on 1940. I asked the dealer about it and he said they haven't had any issues with this latest update. Let's hope they've finally sorted it!
Interesting. I’m tempted, but feels a bit too risky. Wish they’d carried on the over the air updates.
Sadly I’m not convinced my local shop would be prepared to do the update. They like to do the bare minimum.

To be fair it’s very easy, just need a usb c 32gb once it’s on the memory stick just follow the instructions and it does all its self. Takes about 15mins. Longest part is downloading to the memory stick.
move had it on for about 8 weeks and it’s been good no reboots and works as it should of done out the factory (well could be better
)
Are you still under warranty? My dealer said they did a big infotainment upgrade plus firmware to the emergency SOS system. They said it was the SOS upgrade that was causing the installation issues which was why they kept the car in overnight.
Out of warranty I'd try the upgrade myself, but no brainer otherwise. Hope you get it sorted.
Since getting my 1940 update done (wasn't a service, just warranty fix due to issues).. today I for the first time got a red dot - update!
Screenshots attached.
Btw, if you are not getting updates, no red dot on earlier that 1940.
One thing I tried that made issues disappear for a while...
Go to updates and apply them. Forget if it was in engineering or settings.. anyhow, there might be some updates there but not showing but can be applied, check!

Yeah, still under warranty, but I don’t have any issues. I just want that high res CarPlay

I've had several ota updates like this on previous software, but obviously nothing since 1940 (yet). I think they've mainly been navigation ones.
Fair enough, a few folk have moaned about Carplay resolution. I use Android Auto myself and don't have that issue.Yeah, still under warranty, but I don’t have any issues. I just want that high res CarPlay

Maybe just call and tell your dealer you're having issues, perhaps they'll book it in for you?
For info SEAT dealer did my software update yesterday.
Exactly what I did. I’ve had a few periods where the screen rebooted, but nothing like the frequency of some people. I just called and said I was having the issues that most people were having.
After 2 days of being on 1940 I took a 60 mile trip from Derbyshire to Telford yesterday. Had speaker pops 4 times and the the SOS emergency popped up!!!
What a total PITA.
I'll be doing the return trip tomorrow so I expect it'll do exactly the same thing.

The 1940 firmware won’t solve that issue unfortunately! You need to tell them to update the telematic module. They won’t do it unless you tell them you get this issue and you want it updated.
Sorry, I worded that wrong. They told me specifically they had updated the SOS module as well as updated the infotainment to 1940. He was adamant my SOS issues would be sorted!
I'll be on to them on Monday.
They told me the same thing after the first time my Leon was in for the SOS error. They sorted it on the second attempt. Guessing they either didn’t update the telematics module firmware the first time, or they reloaded it the second time.
