Brilliant update! Huge improvements since last December. Not having to turn anything off at the start of a drive now is awesome 👌
Yeah agreed! Love that the ISLI remains off 🥳
Just ISLI remains off? What about the other lane assist crapola? Does that remain off too ?
@@LudicrousFeed definitely big improvement with this latest update I find the indicator sound seems quieter now as well as all the beeps and bongs which are much quieter, and now with wireless apple car play as well
I leave everything on now just don’t have the speed warning sound which thankfully stays off al the time.
Big improvements with the last 2 updates
Took delivery of my BYD seal last week in the UK my first electric car and I’m very impressed in fact so impressed I’d be hard pushed to go back to anything else now.
Great to hear!
The OTA update has also been rolled out to the wonderful BYD Dolphin. I'm in Canberra and did it yesterday. It's brilliant.
Awesome!
Thanks Tom for the run through. Keep up the great work 👍🏽
Thank you!
Great update Tom, Thanks. Have just uploaded my Seal Premium with the new update, based in Melbourne. It took a while for the update to show once you hit the update toggle on the screen. It then took over an hour to complete and restarted twice. This while connected to my home wifi, so suggest do those steps and it should work. Apple carplay is working as well. Have a long drive tomorrow so all will be tested. Cheers
Great to hear! Yes good advice about the update process
especially like your radio choice! 98.7!
😃
Hi Tom
Great review as usual. This update has been carried out on my Seal but I’m still having the traffic sign recognition come on when I restart the car despite disabling it, (the same way as you demonstrated on one of your earlier videos), every time I drive. Have I missed a step in the process?
Hmm you made me doubt myself haha so I went to try it again and it definitely stays off. Maybe try rebooting your car? Hold onto the Volume Control button for 5 seconds
@@LudicrousFeed Thanks Tom, unfortunately your idea didn’t work, I’ll try to reload the update and see if that works, if not I’ll contact BYD. Cheers
Hi tom thanks for the video new updates look great. I haven't received this update for my seal 🤔 Still on 2401.
It should hopefully arrive soon 🙏
Great content mate , I get my new performance in shark grey tomorrow. I just hope I don’t have any issues , there is still plenty of negative information on CZcams about byd that’s for sure. Warranty terms are worrying. Why have so many exclusions or limited years on parts, there still not a cheap car
Warranty terms is probably the weakest aspect of the BYD brand in Aus
Thank God these features that Seal owners are so excited about are already installed in my Sealion 6 upon pickup from dealership. Guess I am lucky enough not to experience all the inconveniences that previous software versions caused. 🥳🥳
Glad BYD are listening to customer feedback
@@LudicrousFeed the last piece of the puzzle is for BYD to improve its customer service and set up more service centers across Australia.
Agreed
Cheers Tom, as always. So I’m guessing in the (hopefully never) situation where your car is stolen, you could “locate” it with the app? Or do you think the range might be limited, not including whether the car is in a signal black spot?
That's a good practical application for this feature. One would presume the range is limitless providing there is cell coverage?
Apparently NZ Atto 3 owners have had the email from BYD informing them of the update rolling out this week.
So nice that BYD NZ communicate this to their customers ahead of time
Hi yes that’s true, we got the email 21st June.
And when the cameras are up just click in front, sides or rear to switch cameras :)
Yes that’s handy
Thanks for the update. I have the Seal Performance model, and there is no update available. Any ideas?
Hang in there it will come
Have you seen any improvements to the lane keeping/ self driving tech?
Same same as far as I can see
UK owner here. I noticed since the 2403 update the parking sensor volume is really reduced, which isn't helpful! Can't see a way to increase the volume for them.
Hmm the volume was reduced in 2401 but there’s been no difference in 2403
wondering how the upgrades are being rolled out? i received delivery last March, yet the the latest upgrade is not available.
Not sure if there’s a schedule as such
This looks awesome, I wonder if this update is coming to ATTO 3, it's been a long time since we've seen an update. Crossing fingers
I really hope BYD don’t neglect the Atto 3 given they make up the bulk of owners currently in Australia (Jun 2024)
This update has already arrived on Atto3. Under V1.80
Can you sideload apk on this version?
I have a feeling that AION GAC Group will be the next to invite you to fly to Guangzhou. Then you will be able to taste authentic Cantonese cuisine there
Yum, love Cantonese food 😋
many Seal AWD drivers complains about high consumption due to the front motor will not smart disconnect when not nessesary. A theory of some drivers is a link zu ITAC... did you experience a difference in consumption when ITAC is ON or OFF?
a norwegian YT channel has a very interesting "test" concerning Seal AWD and it seems that car is thirsty
My Seal is RWD LR so I can’t comment too much about ITAC however I’ve found my car to be fairly efficient both on urban roads and highways so far: Long Range BYD Seal Highway Range and Efficiency Driving in the Rain

MG Cyberster (scissor doors) bEV RHD arrives in AU very soon. Has anyone from MG AU confirmed you will get one for 1-2 days to review it? Surely its a type of car review planning where you & Joy drive to Circular Quay for dinner and drive back type thing? The car just has that vibe, and also driving to the beach (Manly, Tamarama) vibe and some footage there scenario
Yup hopefully MG will loan me one for the week to test
Tom do you know if this is Australia wide? My Seal doesn't register an update
The updates are released to the fleet in batches so hang in there, it should arrive eventually
How do you get notified when the update is available?
Hmm I just use the local Seal FB groups as my notification 👍😆
- then I just keep checking until it comes lol
Interesting: mine already has the gesture control for the A/C, however my ISLI turns back on after every restart, and i haven't done an update for 2 weeks.. 🤷
That’s strange … what version are you currently running?
@@LudicrousFeed exactly the same as you in the video.. even just checked for a new update and testing the settings again, it keeps turning back on 😢
That's so good. Sorts really the major issues and things missing. Does this mean they listen to us??
It's nice to feel listened to 🙏
@LudicrousFeed Sadly my car doesn't have update waiting yet and also Android update for App for BYD doesn't seem to have been pushed yet neither?
BYD AU has just now confirmed RHD AU bEV SeaLionO7 SUV arriving in Australia in the next few months [before November 2024]
Yup that’s good to know, I think this will sell well 🙏
@@LudicrousFeed it will be extremely popular in AU, aussies love SUV's. Will be tough for Xpeng G6 | Zeekr X | Skywell EVA5 | Kia | Hyundai bEV SUV's in late 2024 & all of 2025 to make sales it seems
How is the BYD ownership so far ?
Thanks
It’s been satisfying 🙏

Hey Tom, just wondering if the app update is released yet? Cuz I haven’t got the update yet 😂.
Yes it’s released in batches to the fleet so I’m sure you’ll receive it eventually
@@LudicrousFeed ok nice, thanks for the info! :)
Is this for the Atto 3 as well?
Just for the Seal for now
I'm in Melbourne and this update is not yet available to me :(
Hang in there it will come
My Auto pilot button is no longer working after the OTA software update last night, has anyone experience the same thing or am I missing something?
Hmmm mine is working ok
@@LudicrousFeed Sorry Tôm, my bad, for some reason the CCS was disabled in the ADAS setting after the update. The major issue I currently have now is the vibrating steering wheel while driving noticeable from 40km per hour that the service centre could not fix since I bought the car.
MG owner: What are software updates?
/s
😭
Much welcomed update, but still no fix for the air quality readings stuck at 5/10 👎
True. I’ve seen the internal readings go up with a warning if for example nebulised medication is being legitimately used
I've had the external go up many times before. Are some ppl not having external readings change?
Can you turn off the stupid lane keep assist or whatever its called?
Haven’t tried because it was already “fixed” in the V1.1 2301 update: BYD Seal OTA Software Update 2401 V1.1 Australia Walkthrough and Drive
czcams.com/video/CQwmDVC7auM/video.html
@@LudicrousFeed dumb, dumb was switching off the wrong one.... 😅
@@LudicrousFeed it's not allowing me to switch it off permanently. It's saying it needs to be turned off each time. Same as before.
@@SalkoSalcinovic So the LKA and emergency lane function reverts back to ON for each drive. I don’t mind leaving it on because it’s quite stable now
@LudicrousFeed I thought that this update had that option. I find the steering wheel being snapped one way or another out of my hands quite dangerous. I had it permanently switched off on my previous car.
No wireless Android Auto?
Android Auto is already wireless 🙏
I had to delete my wired AppleCar setup first.
Yeah I think I did the same
Not coming up on my car...
These OTA updates are released in batches so give it time
@@LudicrousFeed thanks
One pedal driving?😢
Not yet
Thanks for the update 👍 BYD is on it 👏 Can't wait to get my Seal later this Year ⏲
You’ll be very happy with it
