Thanks for this.

They’re saying I can take it in for (another) update but Saying BMW havent formally confirmed if a particular software update officially fixes it as yet.

Apparently some are still fixing with the updates and then re-faulting... but I have to wonder if am on .53 and it’s as far on as .70 now!

Let’s see if the next visit resolves it.
BMW doesn't supply release notes for their software. Only way dealers will know is if they open a TSARA case and BMWUK confirms this software update fixes the specific issue.

However, I can say with certainty that this is not a guarantee. My last car had a bug I was waiting to be fixed. Dealer kept opening Puma cases and BMWNA told them 3 times the current software fixed that issue, when it didn't. I ended up returning the lease with the bug never fixed. It was known and confirmed by my dealer and in 2 years, and 3 software updates, never fixed.

It's an imperfect world we live in.
