c300 2008 scanner

Hello just got a c300 2008 sport and took it to check it and once the mechanic plugged it into his scanner the car asked for an update he said he didn't want to do it coz if he did the dashboard might say that it has expired and i would have to change the whole Dashboard for the car to work again.
anyone know about this or anything about the dashboard updates and if it has an expiry?

Thanks guys in advance
