I'm a grandma, with a 2020 OB, and your directions were perfect! I bought myself a 64GB SanDisk flash drive, formatted it the way you said, and followed your exquisite instructions. Even my husband was impressed! Now I can cancel my dealership appointment. Thank you!!!

Don’t sell yourself short Grandma!! You’re awesome!!!

[@thepaperstaggering]

I cannot wait to try this. I’m at the Subie dealer right now for routine PM and they charge $175 for this update. KZbin is crucial nowadays. It’s almost like a basic utility. Knowledge and entertainment all in one. Nothing beats being able to do it yourself. Thanks for sharing this!

Upgraded 2020 Outback Limited in about 30 minutes. seemed to remember that I needed to use the drivers side temp and volume controls to get to the dealer setting as well. Worked great, thank you!

[@Rashoop]

Thank you for your very straightforward and easy to follow instructions. I successfully did the update because of it. And, living in a more rural place where getting to a dealership is a bit of a pain, and time commitment, I GREATLY appreciate it. Again, thank you.

[@CKArts.studio6]

Thank you! I have a 2020 Outback and my dealer didn't know anything about the 2023 update so he wouldn't do it. I did it myself thanks to your EXCELLENT and CLEAR instructions!

We also just went to the dealer last week. I'm in Japan and you'd expect they should know (being the country of manufacture) but no. They had no idea. The had to check and thankfully understood what we're talking about. Guy said it would 2 hours though so we needed another appointment.

[@wmkl000]

This is great. I have to say we almost got rid of our 2022 because of things like the seat heaters being buried in menus. We learned we'll never buy another car that doesn't have real buttons and knobs for at least the major controls but this update should at least makes it a bit less of a pain than it was.

Thank you so much for posting this. I did the upgrade last night and it worked perfectly!

I also find the system a lot more responsive now. Way to go Suburu and this video for helping me upgrade.

Thank you for posting this! I just purchased a 2020 Outback Limited from the dealership, a "Certified Used Car" and none of the updates had been done. It would seem Subaru would do this before selling one of their Certified cars. Subaru could do better! These instructions were clear and correct and I like the look of the new display. Thanks again!

Exact same situation with me. I’m going to download and install this update this weekend!

[@beganny]

Worked LIKE A CHARM thanks! I did convert my usb from FAT32 to NTFS which was easy. 2020 Touring XT so the ventilated seat buttons do indeed appear right next to the heated seat buttons! Because there are two buttons there they are smaller/square to take up the entire space of the larger rectangle heated seat buttons. Works great, seems to have sped up responsiveness of the entire system! Thanks again...

Thanks! Another successful update. Cheers!

[@vidzgurl]

Thank you so much. I had been waiting forever for OTA update. Glad to see your guide here. It took me 1 hour for update. I don’t know if it’s because I’m using an old flash drive or I plugged my flash drive in the slow port. I only noticed while waiting for update that one of my usb port was marked 2.1a. I should have used that instead.

[@keithrudge]

Worked great? Love it. Thanks for sharing..

[@stephenrosenfeld833]

This is great, thanks! I just updated my '22 OBW. Now the only remaining issue is to change the button for the rear hatch so that it allows two open positions, the way it used to work on my 2019 Forester. I have a low ceilinged garage and never open the hatch indoors because of the need to futz with too many menus. The button currently just disables the proximity key from opening the hatch. Switch that to the buried menu and restore the button to its previous function!

Thanks much for the help here. Seems to me that "check software version" should be on every service checklist at the dealer, but clearly it's not on mine, because my 2022 Outback was two versions behind despite having been serviced twice since I've owned it. My dealer is a fair distance away, so I appreciate being able to do this on my own. I've been griping about those tiny fan buttons the whole time I've had the car!

[@JJ-nb3is]

Awesome. Thank you so much for the info provided. This worked on my 2020 legacy limited.

[@vr6muppet]

Thanks sir, just did this on my 2020 premium and it worked great. No more extra steps to turn the heated seats on. : ) Also.... Had this on a couple weeks now and I notice no more random resets. The whole display used to occasionally black out and reset maybe a couple times a week. I haven't seen this one time since the update.

[@rextakasugi7127]

Excellent video! I have a 2022 OBW that is well out of warranty (60,000 miles now) and the dealership wanted to charge me $175 to update the software. Your instructions enabled me to do it myself, only having to buy a 16GB memory stick for $6. It was a little confusing to me to figure out what files to download (for the Nov 2023 update) and how to do that and how to un-zip them, but I finally figured it out. I also had trouble getting into the Dealership Mode. I think the problem was the speed at which I was pressing the Tune button (I was pressing the button too slowly, I think). I found out I could also do it on the driver's side, using the temperature controls on that side and pressing the Volume button 6 times. The update took about 15 minutes on my OBW, and I'm sure if I would have taken it to the dealership it would have taken at least 2 hours. Thanks for the DIY instructions that helped save some $$ and time!

[@NorthernNomad90]

Hey! Do you remember what file you downloaded from the November 2023 update? I have the same car you do. :)

[@joewhite6742]

Thanks for posting... I too was able to complete the download on our 2020. It take 65 minutes. :o)

[@YukunKennyRen]

Bro! It worked on my 2020 outback. Thank you so much 👍🏼 The infotainment did blank on my first attempt midway, but I'm glad it worked out on the second attempt. Seems like Android auto still only takes half of the screen though, Subaru ugh...

[@martinbeaumier9079]

YES did the same on my Outback Limited 2020 in canada. still Half screen for android Auto. This is the most important Update that I would like to have.

[@brockulation]

One specific learning I came across is that IT MATTERS what grade of USB drive you use. At first I used a cheap off-brand one and it failed to install. I switched to one listed in service bulletin (that had much higher speeds) and it worked like a charm!

[@robbynprange595]

Thank you for posting this along with the files. I was able to update my 2022 Outback (high) using a Mac formatted flash drive (Journaled, Master Boot Record). My car required me to run through Appendix A steps, but otherwise everything went smoothly.

[@kirkkimble3573]

Due to "user error" I failed in the first several attempts. But, I figured out, finally, I was downloading the 2022 update, not the March 2023 update. It went smooth after I got the correct update. I now have the new Infotainment Interface in my 2022 Legacy. Yay!!!

[@happyzilla]

Hi - thanks for the video. I have a 2020 legacy and I was able to update the infotainment through the wireless SW upgrade. I noticed that this was just released within the last few weeks as I tried before that it said no update SW found. So if you have your Subaru setup with home WI-FI then you can just click on the SW update from your car.

[@tbrown8721]

Great video, thank you! I will note that the thumbrdrive will work if it is formatted as FAT32. I did not test exFAT. Thank you!

[@user-eb7yi2ig9w]

[@nbkr49b]

Aside from how long it took me to extract these files, I kept getting errors when transferring them to a flash drive. It had 126 GB so it was large enough and yet the issue persisted. I then had to convert my flash drive’s format from Fat32 to NTFS to allow for the supposedly large file size. This ultimately worked! In case anyone else has those same issues.

[@mingjiezhao227]

thank for the input. got into the same problem.

[@jesseyeason]

The maximum size of an individual file in the FAT32 file system is 4GB. NTFS and ExFAT don't have that limitation. Going to attempt this on my 20 Outback Premium today, fingers crossed.

This worked well for me (2022 Outback Limited with navigation), although I first downloaded the zip file to the flash drive and tried to unpack the files there. Later moved the zip file elsewhere and then unpacked onto the flash drive. Install took about 20 minutes and the new interface seems much more responsive. Would love to see full screen Android Auto. Hope that is in a future update.

[@swe3t23]

I can confirm as well the dealer can do it. Just got back from there for an oil change and asked them to update the firmware.

[@stephenrosenfeld833]

That's interesting. I got an email message from Subaru Canada in October saying that the new software was available OTA for my '22 OBW. Of course, when I tried to do the update, it said I already had the latest version. I wrote Subaru and a couple of weeks ago they finally (and apologetically) responded, saying, okay, now it really was available. I made an appointment at the dealer and had them do it two weeks ago. It was not the latest release. While sitting in the waiting room for three hours, I searched online and found that this newer version was released a week beforehand. The dealer was not aware of it, saying they're usually three months behind. This update process is the one I've used to update the maps on my old Forester's navigation system, so I'll try this right now. I didn't know where to get the firmware. Thanks for doing this video!

[@larryb6886]

worked perfectly

[@robertconrad7269]

I am not sure if this is relevant, but I tried two times to enter dealership mode, and both times I could only get factory mode. So, I turned off the car unplugged my echo auto that was plugged into a USB port in the backseat and started the process over again, and it immediately went into dealership mode. Just in case anyone else has this problem. Once the install was complete, everything works fine and the new buttons are in place.😊

[@troutsage]

Worked perfectly. Thank you! What cellphone holder are you using?

[@wildxtrek]

ProClip mount with MagSafe MagicMount holder.

[@peterhost6928]

Great information, but, be aware that once you start the update you no longer have access to any controls for heat, fan, Auto Start Stop, etc. I've read people on forums using this and driving while updating. Be sure to disable the Auto Start Stop function before starting the update if you will be driving during the update. If you are driving the engine will shut off when you stop possibly interrupting the update and causing it to fail. Ask me how I know.

[@DaDaDo661]

Interesting, I didn't realize you could update and drive at the same time

As noted in an earlier comment, the update went w/o issues, and things have been working well. So, now that we've made the jump to the '2023' version for my 2021 Outback, How will the 'future' updates appear (new category?) - to continue with the 2023 conversion in place? Also, for FYI, just encountered an issue with Apple Carplay failing to activate 3-days ago. Might be related to Gen 6 vehicles and the Subaru Starlink App being integrated into the MySubaru App. It appears to be a somewhat known issue, yet no joy in getting it to work on a regular basis.

[@beyondfilm]

Do you know if this infotainment update will have any effect on third-party amplifier and speaker installations? I had an aftermarket amplifier installed and needed to install an L7 device between the stock radio head and the new amplifier so that the radio signal would talk to the amplifier. What happens over time is that the radio will not output sound so, thanks to a KZbin video addressing this problem, I need to disconnect the ground cable on the battery and dissipate the electricity by waiting 15 minutes or holding down the brake pedal. Once I reconnect the battery, the radio works again. So I'm wondering if this info infotainment upgrade will fix that or make it even worse? Thank you in advance!

[@mikem964]

Worked great for 22 OBW. 6 presses of the button for the 6 stars of Subaru maybe?

[@MaksShap]

I can confirm that the engine does not need to be on. I had none in the ON position, i stayed in the vehicle and did not open the door. Dealer mode can also be done with the driver side temp buttons and the volume knob.

[@frankbrian8464]

Things can go bad if there is a power interruption. From the technical service bulletin: "Once the update begins, the screen below will be displayed with a progress bar. It takes about 15 to 20 minutes for the update to complete. VERY IMPORTANT: NEVER turn off the ignition while the software update is in process." 4a) Perform the update in a well ventilated location if updating with the engine running OR with the ignition ON and a battery charger connected."

[@frankbrian8464]

Does the engine have to be running in Park for the whole time it takes to complete the update? (Not interested in driving while updating and am seeing conflicting things about whether the engine has to be running or not.) Thanks.

[@benropelewski8657]

Perfect! I've been looking for a USB update guide like this for my OBW. Any idea if it needs to stay in Park for the whole process? Anyone tried this yet? Gas is too expensive to be idling this long 😅

[@wildxtrek]

In theory, you can do this while driving. I’ve done previous updates while driving because it was taking so long and I had places to be. I don’t recommend it, as the updates MAY affect AC and EyeSight controls while the update is running.
