Just received my letter from Porsche UK 2 mins ago to make arrangements for the software MY21 upgrade.

I love it when a plan comes together!!
Ditto but letter only references Charging, Chassis and what seem minor fixes to digital cockpit and PCM. Not sure it's the "big" update? I am MY2021 though

It takes 4 hrs so something meaty but don't forget that MY21 cars have some features already hence less time needed to upgrade.

Your points are covered in the letter I received - PCM and Cockpit

Time will tell...

Please let us know what your first impressions are, what changes are implemented and any “new” issues with this update, when your cars are back from the shop.

Have messaged my SA to inquire whether it is yet available in Spain.

Thanks.
My SA confirmed it is not available here yet ...

It seems that UK owners will be the update beta testers for the rest of the world.
I look forward to hear about the first impressions.

If you are beta-testing an update to beta software, what does that make you? Guinea pig? Suckah? What?

My 4S MY21 is going in on Friday to Silverstone.
I have had two 12v failures in the 10 weeks (1200 miles) since I have had it. Both times overnight on a timed charge on my Andersen charger. Alarm goes off at about 3am, I can't silence it, 12v system dies, man from the AA comes out in the morning to get it fired up again.
The dealer says they will need it for 5 hours for the SW update, I have a courtesy car booked so let's hope it is a good one!

Great car to drive bit I am very nervous about it happening again.

That's great.
I mean, you have a test to actually see if the problem of the 12V issue is solved.
Would be great if you have actual results!
