Default PDR updated today

Got the update today on my 2015 Z51 rag top today. In my opinion the quality is much improved. No more green tint. It also appears to be a sharper image. The update does make the audio go away in the valet mode. I really don't care because no one outside the dealer will get their grimy little hands on it, and you still have video.

The audio quality seems to better with the update as well. Did not do the other updates. Was advised "if it isn't broken don't fix it."

I supposedly had mine updated but I don't see a difference. Perhaps the update didn't actually take.

I wish I could tell from those software and cal version numbers.

The updated software number for my Z51 is: 23290519AR 0.1

CAL VERSION: 23119739 AA

I was told there are different software numbers for base, Z51, and Z06.

Hope this helps.

Thanks. It helps, I think. That's exactly what mine reads. But my video from the other day stills shows green shadows when its partly cloudy and when I put it side by side with video from before the update I just don't see a difference.

In addition to the bad video, does anyone get a proper range on the brake input?
