Hi all,
Just had a call from local dealer saying there is a "Product Improvement" available for my Niro. Confirmed it was a software update, but not the specifics. Booked in for Tuesday next week.
Could this be Apple-play? I'll post an update next week :)

Just back from the Service Centre. They said it is the first Niro that they have done, it took an hour. The adjustment is to fix an engine hesitation when changing from deceleration to acceleration. Had noticed that when braking approaching a junction, and then putting my foot down if the way was clear, there was an engine hesitation, usually when cold. Tried this out on my way home and it is fixed as far as I can tell. I think the gear changing altogether may be a bit smoother. Also have my bright red torch!

I've been a bit dim. Just realised the update also changed the satnav route selection and the destination arrival graphic.
