Post Recall Difference

I just got my 2015 F56 back from the recall and scheduled maintenance. I only drove home from the service center so haven't had a chance to really check out the car but I did notice the following straight away.

(First I should add that the service rep said a computer update was also part of the recall.)

Until now, when I would drive without a seat belt - only from the central mailbox in my neighborhood to my house - the seat belt chimes would go off once every 10 seconds or so. But today (post recall) after checking the mail, they went off continuously all the way home. I also think that I am now seeing two seat belt warning icons in the speedometer. I think there was only one before.

It's not a big deal but it does seem like a funny thing to update. Anybody else notice this?

Another thing:

When I went out and started the car this morning, the thing almost died twice while idling.

Before the recall fix, I could start the car and not even touch the gas until I started driving.

If it keeps happening every morning - back to the service center.
