Official Release of V3.0 for SYNC3 Has Begun
RetiredgE replied to jmr061's topic in Audio, Backup, Navigation & SYNC
And I had already updated to 3.0, v18025 from an earlier post and when I downloaded the "official" 3.0 from Ford Owner site, went to update and system told me I already had the most current version. So, nothing changed from earlier? Interesting. -
It's funny I ran across this post as I just experienced this same issue yesterday. I noticed the rubber trim had become dislodged and upon closer examination, it was caked with crud. Just another area to pay attention to when cleaning. My question, how do you keep the rubber trim on? It appears to have been put on with some type of adhesive. Thanks.

Ford Edge Titanium 2016 Remote start
RetiredgE replied to frmichaud's topic in Alarms, Keyless Entry, Locks & Remote Start
What do you do if the Climate Control and Seats options are grayed out and you can't adjust them? I thought I read somewhere in here that the dealer could make some adjustments? Thanks. -
Good morning Edge family. Here is my conundrum for the day. Seeing how I'm on my 4th Edge and consider myself extremely blessed to NOT have any issues with any (until now), this audio issue (Sync 3?) is messing with my mind. I stay on SiriusXM. I NEVER have used AM or FM (Sync 3 w/Nav). For the past 3 days, at various times, when I start my Edge, the audio is on FM 92.9. I am beyond perplexed with this. Not an major issue, but when you have OCD it is bothersome. Anyone have any ideas or similar issues? Thanks for any advice.

Seat Filter for Cooled Seats - Design Changed!
RetiredgE replied to omar302's topic in Interior, A.C., Heat, Interior Trim
Call me dense, but where are these seat filters located? I have a 16 Titanium with the a/c seats. Was not aware of a filter. I have looked but cannot find. Thanks. -
SYNC3 V2.3 Official Release is Available
RetiredgE replied to jmr061's topic in Audio, Backup, Navigation & SYNC
So, if one updated to v3.0 that was out and about, should one disregard 2.3? Or can 2.3 be installed over 3.0? UPDATE: Went to try the 2.3 update and SYNC came back with a statement, "Your system already has the latest version. Remove USB and Sync 3 with restart". Guess I'm good to go until the next update. -
How are we being misled? Inquiring minds want to know.

So, has anyone been able to download the Ford Map Updater from the link candurin listed above?

So, as my mind usually does at 3 AM, I start thinking about things and the one topic (above) came to my mind. Currently, the new iPhone 8's have a charging connector to charge and connect via USB port in your car. As I understand it, in order to use CarPlay, it must be connected. When the new iPhone X ( and future models I'm sure) come out, there will be no charging port. The charging is done via a "hot plate". Any thoughts on how CarPlay will work? That's my morning thoughts for the day.

2016 Sync 3 with 2017 Carplay Usb upgrade
RetiredgE replied to EdgeofReds's topic in Audio, Backup, Navigation & SYNC
I have a 16 Titanium; have never gotten an update via wifi; downloaded version 3.0 to usb drive; update was successful; already had the new usb port when i updated to v2.2. Maybe I'm old and blind, but I see no mind blowing differences and in my opinion, CarPlay still sucks. -
SYNC 3 and CarPlay/Android Auto Information
RetiredgE replied to jmr061's topic in Audio, Backup, Navigation & SYNC
UPDATE: So, I updated SYNC 3 to v 2.2 a month or so ago. Ordered the hub from Ford Partscheap on Saturday, it arrived today, pop out the old, reconnect and pop in the new. Badda bing. Apple Carplay operational. We'll test it out tomorrow on our trip to Chicago. It's just too bad Ford can't (or won't) replace the hub free of charge. -
SYNC 3 and CarPlay/Android Auto Information
RetiredgE replied to jmr061's topic in Audio, Backup, Navigation & SYNC
Did that. thank you. UPDATE: Well, using the same flash drive, no changes, went out again and tried it and the update took. Not sure why but I guess the stars were all aligned correctly this evening. Oh well, on to the next crisis. Thanks everyone for their assistance. Appreciate this forum. -

Says it doesn't fit 16 Edge.

SYNC 3 and CarPlay/Android Auto Information
RetiredgE replied to jmr061's topic in Audio, Backup, Navigation & SYNC
Well, I give up. I guess I'll just wait until Ford decides to push the upgrade OTA. I did what Rocketboots did and all I got was "indexing" and 10 seconds later "indexing completed" and for the next 10 minutes, nothing. Oh well. I'll survive. -
SYNC 3 and CarPlay/Android Auto Information
RetiredgE replied to jmr061's topic in Audio, Backup, Navigation & SYNC
Well, I'm having issues too like Livestrong16. Unzipped to thumb drive, took it to the car, plugged it in, it showed it was indexing files and indexing complete and then nothing for the next 10 minutes. What am I doing wrong? UPDATE: I posted on Ford Edge FB page, tried again this morning and got a different warning message stating "Installation Failed- The installation has run out of space or does not work with this version." I am perplexed! -
I have Pirelli Scorpion Zero 265/40R/22s on my 14 Edge Sport. I had the same tire but 20's on my 11 Edge Limited. I don't know if it's the size difference or what, but these guys whine like there's no tomorrow. And like the gentleman said above, "thump, thump, thump". They've been balanced, re-balanced, rotated, the works. Only 25K on them and even my wife mentioned the noise this weekend. I'm not sure what my next step is. Thanks for listening.
