Still no OTA updates

So, been waiting patiently for the reported updates to the suspension and the 2.4 entertainment system. Have not seen them. Has everyone gotten them? Is this just a 580 thing? Is this just a 2023 or later thing? My poor 2022 450+ is waiting for these fantastic updates, but, alas, there has been nothing. Whats up?

We’ve only recently received the wireless phone charger update and the infotainment update. It’s fixed one minor issue I had (having to press shuffle twice because it didn’t stick/actually shuffle the first time) but now I’ve had some parktronic/360 cam failures since the latest update.

Never mind - click car at the bottom, and old menu pops up.

I had my dealer download these. The wireless charging of my iPhone finally works.
I believe I did receive the suspension OTA several months ago since I saw something to that effect on the main screen. I can’t say that I like it. I can no longer distinguish any difference in the comfort mode as opposed to the eco mode. Oh well.

Fellow 2022 450+ here. Haven't received an update since the sound system one back in Sept. MBUX was updated to E445 by the dealer in November, but that's it.

I've tried everything: park car in good Wi-Fi reception, factory reset MBUX, etc. Nothing.

One month, no OTAs. Now two OTAs in the last few days. Phone charger update went first, and then an air suspension parking assist update happened today. The latter is interesting. While I haven’t seen any buttons to raise the front end, I did notice that the car appears to be “jacked up” when parked now. Anyone else experience this feature or know any details?

I had the air suspension update as well and was wondering the same thing. I haven’t noticed any change in the car since the update. Does it raise the car as you attempt to park so I don’t scrape the front bumper on the curb?? What good would it do if it jacked the car up after you have parked it? It would be nice for Mercedes to tell us at the minimum what these updates actually do to the function of the car.

Still no entertainment system or suspension updates. I did get another communication system OTA today, to make things more robust for the future, it says. But, hey....that's two in the last two months! (wireless charging system and communication system)

I've had my EQS for over two years. I have received two communication system OTA updates, and one wireless charging OTA update. I still have not received an entertainment or suspension update.

Finally got the communication module update [queued]

I checked my app and turns out the communication module update was available to me since 5/30. I find this odd since I regularly check the app for updates and the car itself doesn't show the update available. Regardless, the update isn't installed due to below message:
The update is currently not installed. We will provide the update again once the technical requirements are fulfilled. You do not need to do anything at this time.
Does anyone know what the technical requirements are? I left the car charging overnight, locked, and within reach of my Wi-Fi, but the update still wont install.
