DS7 after facelift: firmware not updating

Unread post by TomC2 »

Hi All,

I do have DS7, 2023, after facelift. This model has automatic firmware-software update only (opposed to Crossback with manual update). Now I have it for 18 months, and no update is happening. Stuck on this version "AHW.1.23.43.5". Automatic software update checkbox is Checked always. WiFi is on - I do connect car to home Wifi (with engine on e.g.: to update Navigation maps), and a lot to phone hot spot (which is Wifi as well) - sometimes driving the whole day with it. Yet, no success with firmware update. Maybe there is no firmware update after 18 months?

Please share your thoughts.
Thank you in advance.

Very likely, if you have the IVI telematics system, then it will advise of a software update and install it automatically. It won't need any of your own WiFi connections, it will use the onboard system to download it without intervention.

I looked up what 'IVI telematics system' is, and found below DS website. Seems like my software/firmware version is quite old (v1.23). Latest listed on line is v1.30 (earliest v1.19).
