Had my PX2 in for the brake hose recall the other day and the gave me a PX3 XLT as a courtesy car, there are a few differences I noticed while driving, but one I liked was the radio station showing song info.
The dealer did do an update on my Sync 3 but that did not appear to make any visual changes so just wondering if this would be possible in the future.
Also noticed some changes in the dash graphics, more so the right cluster. Is this also a possibility to be upgraded in the future?
I noticed it had the speed sign recognition active which is a cool feature, but there was another circular area right next to it that never displayed.... can anybody inform me what that ones for?

Speed Sign Recognition is available for the PX2, Stewart is the only one who can do it so send him a PM with your location info and he will be in contact.
I believe the second circle is used in European cars, not here.

Second circle is rarely seen but can come up in zones where multiple speed signs are very close together. eg. school zone 40 the 70 straight after. Do not overtake, circle with a read and a black car.
My route takes me a way that mean I see on average 2 signs at once at least 2 times a day.
Speed signs signs meet the standards, most other signs a set by state or the local council and do not meet the standards so never come up. Apart from speed signs Australia is far from consistent with anything with it comes to roads.

There have been no visual changes to Sync 3 for a long time and no you will not be able to make these changes.
There will be no further updates to the PX2 cluster so it is what is is.
Other circle, as per above posts.
