MBUX software update new features
My C Class 2022 has MBUX software version RL_NTG7_E211.206_21244AC3 (shown in MBUX info).
I went to dealer today for other reason and saw the 2023 model, which has some new features in MBUX, especially noticeable in the Nav map, where media playback and few other boxes are always on top of the map, clicking Home button shows all options on top of the map, not exiting map (like mine). This 2023 has MBUX version RL_NTG7_E316.505_22092AC3
So far I haven't had any software update via OTA. It always says there is none available.
The dealer checked my car with the Xentry terminal and it shows there is indeed new MBUX software version available but version shows very large list of meaningless numbers, not the version name easy to identify version like in MBUX screen.
The dealer charges for software update unless there is an existing malfunction. It's not much, around 80 USD. Anyway I didn't do it for now, as not sure if that software update will bring my MBUX to latest version as in 2023 models.
Has anyone had MBUX software update via either OTA or at dealer in 2022 model that can confirm MBUX interface gets indeed refreshed to latest features?

I saw in a german page some folks received the software update including zero layer back in May, for car delivered on Oct 2021. This is page for reference (translated with Google, I can't read german): https://www.motor-talk.de/forum/zero...06.html?page=1
If my car still doesn't have it, I'll need to wait for that update to be delivered, or convince the dealer to do the software update for free... or pay.

For Mexico, C Class cars are built in Germany. Maybe they're ahead of South Africa

Btw, does anyone know if Online Navigation is being used if there is already Hard Disk Navigation installed? Live traffic data seems to come from yet a different service "Live Traffic Information" so not sure what is Online Navigation for in this case.

Wondering whether this is the most recent US mbux version for our w206.
