Communications Module update

FYI, when driving my 2022 SL63 today, a message popped up on the central display notifying me of a software update to the communications module. I connected the car to my home wi-fi and went to the Software Update menu. The update description says that it will take about 5 minutes in the background, will activate at the next ignition sequence, and will enable future OTA updates and improve overall stability.

Let's see what happens....

I had that too awhile ago. After it downloaded, I believe it explained that download will help when they later download other things. If you see something else worthwhile, please advise.

I haven't seen it but then I've been out of the country for a week, so maybe when I get back in a few weeks, I will get the update also.

My car has been in the shop for the last week. I received a message on the app that the updated was downloaded and installed today. I guess that also means the 12V battery is okay despite the communication with the app, OTA updates with the mothership, and lack of driving this past week.
