Update ARB6

[bn8959]

Interesting. I got the updated offered to mine just now. My car wasn’t under either ARB6 or ARB7 (no recalls showing). For me this update was described at WSH4, but appears to be exactly the same update.

Just got the ARB6 update here in the Netherlands. 2023 turbo CT. Took 7 minutes. No letters, recall notices or anything here so this is very ‘out of the blue’ for anyone not on a forum.

Why on earth aren't Porsche able to send the update out to everyone at the same time, rather than dripping it out randomly around the globe. They've had long enough to figure out how to send it surely, while trying to find some software for them to escape replacing everyone's battery. Frustrating as i'll have to take my car in next week for the 60 day monitoring. Oh and they want the car for 2 days ('but we'll try to do it in 1'). No courtesy car obviously as the problem is my fault and nothing to do with their quality control being off the chart awful. Still there is a lime bike bay just behind the garage, so i can get home.

Rant over.

I suspect to manage the load on their update servers. We’ve all seen the problems when servers get swamped with traffic. Also when I had Porsche install it for me they said beforehand there was a risk that if there was an undiagnosed problem in the battery that the new software picked up it would put the car into limp mode until the battery was fixed. So again may be managing the rate at which that happens given the shortage of replacement batteries and modules.

I finally got the ARB6 OTA update today. It loaded just fine. No issues to report at this time.
