Do all PDR-equipped C7s have this flaw that needed to be corrected?

Nice. Most people probably don't use the valet function anyway.

This is a June 2015 update, so it depends...

Phil, I've merged your 2 threads together. Forum rules do not allow the starting of a 2nd thread simply for the purpose of reposting.


In the future, if you're having trouble, simply let me or Zymurgy know-we're happy to help out!

Once they were ready (an SD card with the content on it), less than 10 minutes total. If you have it done, take a picture of your before software versions in the PDR settings menu to compare to the after versions, because their first attempt at my update didn't actually "take" and they had to retry.
