METHOD FOR UPDATING SOFTWARE COMPONENTS

摘要

The invention relates to a method for updating at least one software component of a motor vehicle, comprising at least the steps of: determining vehicle configuration information comprising at least the information of which hardware components and/or which software components are present in the actual vehicle by a state assessing device, providing a wireless telecommunications link between an internal vehicle service interface and an external service device, transmitting the vehicle configuration information determined from the state assessing device and of identification data of the motor vehicle in question from the motor vehicle to the external service device via the telecommunication link, testing using the device, testing by the external service device using the vehicle configuration information whether one or more software components should be updated according to an inspection protocol available to the external service device, providing a corresponding update specification by the external service device, and updating the software components to be updated using the update specification, and is designed such that the updating of the software components to be updated is offered to the driver by the external service device prior to performing the same, that the update can be released solely by the driver with regard to the offer, and that transmitting the vehicle configuration information and the identification data occurs repeatedly based on time control or event control, without interacting with and/or reporting to the driver.
