Smart top update?
- Thread starter scootr
- Start date
Scootr, it's a critical update that must be completed. In case you weren't aware, the SmartTop modules are only 'leased' not purchased. It's a requirement after a period of possession (ie, however long you've had yours) to disconnect the module and send it to another Z4 owner, preferably in another country East of Australia, slightly North of Antarctica.scootr said:

2015-04-21 Fix for rare case where top would get stuck after using trunk comfort access mode - v1.05

I can’t imagine it will make a whole lot of difference updating it to v2.22 but presumably they have done it for a reason.
Entertaining and educational
