That great news indeed!
I have a visit planned soon so I'm curious if that's also available in my country...

do we have a bulletin or version number for this release - “the update” is too vague and may just be the existing summer update - which fixes some 12V issues, but has proven to be insufficient for all cases - as vehicles with that update have proven to still be suseptible to 12V drain issues while plugged in.

more details please.

I am afraid that I don't have any more details.

if you can please ask your dealer for a porsche version number or service advisory number - if your dealer says there is an update availble, they should have some concrete reference via porsche service bulletins that will have software version details.

I checked the US bulletins in the NHTSA site but they are published with a delay, so February's TSB will be on the site in about a week.

My assumption is that the software update will be campaign WLG7

I asked my Service advisor to check my VIN and there are currently no updates available for my car. So either the update is not available in the US yet or your dealer is wrong.

When I got my car back last week the "update" was not out as of yet. It's been delayed already twice....
