That is far behind. What else stands out to me is you Do Not have an Apim update awaiting either in FDRS. Hopefully someone else with more access/experience can give you more insight.

Does he have any pending TCU or GWM updates available?

I went to the dealership fri and asked for them to update the apim and they said I was currently up to date

So as for Friday the dealor did nothing except ID the vehicle. They may have looked and seen you did not have apim available in fdrs. You also don't have tcu or gwm. Not sure what you have going on

Dealers can’t force OTAs so they might not track them all that carefully.

So what’s my options?

 

[JEB]

No he does not

What is the full list? Sounds like something unupdated (IPC, IPMA) is blocking the APIM updates from loading.

They said I had a update on the pcm and did that but that was it

As you can see in your history they did not do any updates.

You’re not gonna Ike them. You can do it yourself, but you’ll need to spend some money for equipment. You can wait and hope for an OTA to get to you eventually. The dealer route will likely be unsuccessful. Dealers will ordinarily not update modules unless you can show that they are malfunctioning and an update would qualify as a repair.

Have you read any of this thread. All the info and guides are there in the first page or two. It's a rather large thread but it will help. Any problem you could experience has already happened and been asked about and resolved. It's by far the best use of a Forum ever.
