I've received 6.8 and 6.14 in the past 30 days. Thought there used to be a Check Now button on the software updates page, but don't see it anymore. Am I nuts and it was never there? Did an update remove it? Thanks

I no longer have the Check Now for Updates either. I'm sure it was there before.

I have 6.14 as well.

That button has always been useless though unless you have a SW update that needs downtime to install. Most do not.

The check process executes when you click Software Updates from the prior menu Vehicle, you'll notice it cycling, I assume it's communicating with the mother ship, then it settles on a status report of the last successful install with grayed out Update Now button.

I don’t recall seeing a ‘Check for Updates ‘. I have always had the ‘Update Now’ though.
