ive bean reading on forums and facebook groups that newest odysseys self driving and lane keep assits are excellent something which i think mine is struggling. im guessing there is a difference between the systems so my question is is there an option to make an upgrade or im stuck with the one i have?

@minivansarekewl it's kind of ironic how these new Odyssey features are getting praised while you're stuck with a system that feels like it's barely holding onto the lane but unfortunately upgrading your current system isn't really a thing since stuff like self-driving and lane-keep assist relies on hardware that's usually built into the vehicle from the factory so unless Honda pulls off a miracle software update you might just have to settle for what you've got or look into the next model if those features are deal breakers for you.

i have a 2020 odyssey and the self driving isn't great either. i asked my dealer about upgrades and they said no way to update it to the newer system. you might be stuck with what you got unless you get a new car.
 
This one's tricky.. at least for me. i get it why u would think about upgrading but there are a few factors to consider. self driving can be a mix of software and hardware and newer cars have a different setups. mybe this is something u can check with your dealer?
 
agree with @algorithm56 sounds like you need to check with your dealer. I don't think it's like a plug and play thing. A lot of complex stuff to look into like specific wirings ansd sensors

Yeah, the newer Odysseys come with Traffic Jam Assist and better LKAS hardware. Unfortunately, you can't really upgrade it because it's connected to certain sensors and modules. I took mine in for a check, and a software update made a slight difference, but it's still not quite like the latest version.
