So, I have a 2017 HSE Td6 and was not expecting to be able to get OTA software updates.
However, yesterday morning I got a notification on the display that one was available and ready to download!
One thing I noticed was that it seemed to work when the vehicle was connected to Wifi and not when it was reliant on 3G. This may be a quirk of my vehicle as I've had a bit of 3G wonkiness. I know this because the message of an available download popped up after I started the car (and thus was connected to my home Wifi). I hit "accept" and download as I was pulling away and it appeared to stop the process. However, when I got home later, I got a message saying the download was complete.
@ 1979rover: just a detail: does your D5 connect automatically to your home wifi? If so, I assume your's not pw protected..... I was wondering if the D5 can store the home wifi password somewhere as it is annoying to re-enter it each time!

So, there it is for what it's worth.
Must be rolling out the update by region? I have a ‘17 Td6, too, and checked this morning. No notification. What version are you on now?
Just connected mine to home wifi this morning but pressing "check for updates" tells me I am up to date even though 19A.
They must have some way of staggering the roll out I guess to reduce server load? (you'd think they'd have some sort of cloud auto scaling in this day and age mind...)

That’s the response I got last week, too. Haven’t tried this week.
