Still no update on updating SL firmwares?
Everytime I've been to LBS to get mine done they have had issues with the software and not been able to do it. Mines still on the original firmware from last March......
Drying off with an airline is a big no no, All you are doing is pushing water into and past seals. If you need to dry, use a car drying towel. I'd take off the plugs inspect and dry any that are wet.
