Yep and thanks for confirming, but I wanted to address what @potato had brought up and the fact that if they would do them OTA then we don't even have the concerns of battery issues and the processes are already in place. We all should have had this by January at the latest - a 3 month roll out is acceptable in my book. They could have even slipped a newer version of code in to fix the black box on the '22's if they had wanted half way through.The OTA process can 100% update the IPMA. It updates the module faster than FDRS does and there is algorithm is has to pass to verify the 12v battery is in a healthy enough state for the OTA to install to avoid problems.
Please note there are two version of the BC 1.4 update: One that updates the firmware and another one that is wifi only that enables the features themselves. The one that enables the features is very quick in comparison to the one that updates the software. What the dealer did was the OTA equivalent of the one that writes the software but does not enable the config for lane change etc.
