each of them is 25 quid to flash
if it works I would leave it alone and before flashing make sure you have some tool to support vehicle electrics for flash duration as I would not flash on battery alone !

Let us know how you get on. I've tried a couple of times on some of the updates. It seems to go through the whole process, but when you check again it is still telling you that the same updates are available, so it doesn't seem to be saving them properly to the car.Previously:

‘93 Defender 110 200TDi CSW - still got this, non-runner on SORN.
‘87 Defender 90 4 cyl Petrol
‘83 110 CSW V8 - best ever!
Range Rover 2-door V8 (not sure of year - 4-speed box and vacuum diff switch)

The general advice with these is "if it ain't broke don't fix it".
You risk more by trying an update (bricking the module, leaving you with a potentially undriveable vehicle) than any benefit you might think you're getting.
If you have a specific problem with a module and a software update is a known fix, that's different.06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti
Any issues with the site let me know!

Good advice, as ever!
...but it's always sooo tempting just to click that upgrade button! Previously:
