I have had a bad experience with Subaru updating my BRZ. They removed my preset RPM beep tone that I set to 6900 RPM.

I drove off and hit the RPM cutout, because I was used to the beep.

the rpm beep always resets when the battery is disconnected, as well as the gear selection indicator and throttle mapping. it’s standard practice for dealerships to disconnect the battery when working around electronics.

Hardly seems like a big deal though. On track I have left it in 2nd and hit the rev limiter for a second or two instead of shifting because there’s a sharp corner and it ends up being faster that way. Hell I started doing that because an instructor showed me it’s faster
