I picked my car up at the dealer (warranty issue) and asked if he also could update the Intouch Pro. He did an update to 19C version.

Android auto does now function, also Spotify works, so I am very happy.

I didn't find an option to connect a datalink via your phone, only hotspot (the other way round).

There must be a "wifi" option in the settings also. Actually on friday I go to my dealers to get 20A.
In 19C the OTA updates do not work yet, at least not in my car..

Software release 19B does indeed include connection and updates via WiFi. The Smartphone pack (Android Auto/Apple Carplay) only works if you have a 10" screen.

"Vehicle systems that were previously unable to connect to Wi-Fi for wireless software updates can now do so. This will enable future wireless InControl Touch Pro software updates for these vehicles."

I have InControl Touch Pro 19C_19.46.4-458817 (updated by Lookers, not SOTA) last December. Today I looked to see if 20A would update. The car said no, I have the latest. Looked on the web and that said there's a problem with 20A, and 19C is the latest.
What I haven't found in my 19C is how to connect to my home WiFi ... something that would be wise to do for SOTA.

If anyone spots how to do connect to the home WiFi, please let me know ;)

How can you drive a car properly with all these distractions is beyond me...Women seem to be able to multi-task well though ;-)

Thanks, at least I know it’s not just me. Fingers crossed we do get it I really don’t want to have to pay for a separate sim just to see traffic on the sat nav!
