Redownload/install remote software upgrade?

Software update expired without getting prompted to install it in the car.

Is it posible to re-initiate the whole thing?

Thanks

I got a notification on the phone app saying the upgrade expired.

All the stages in the app were complete, only installing from the car was not done.

If i could delete the download i could probably reinitiate the process but not sure how.

I think if you go to apps on the car, you can force push the update to your phone again. I just forgot if I saw that option in the app drawer or in car settings

Had lots of issues with the latest update. For about 2 weeks app stated that the update was ready and to follow instructions in the car. Car never prompted anything. In the iD8 general settings, selected check for updates. After several days of the same thing, car finally stated update was successfully applied, and the car's version app reflected the new updates. However, phone app continued to show that update was not installed and that I should follow the instructions in the car. After about 2 weeks, the message finally went away from the app. Since then, remote start is inconsistent - works at times and not others.

Try deleting the app from the phone and reinstalling it. Should get rid of old download.

Did that already. No discernable difference.
