Hey hey, everyone. How has the long term experience been with these?
Couple of things, Anyone have any issues? Ford give anyone any grief on them? What kind of costs have people seen with this swap? I saw in a post where someone recommended reaching out to a guy on FB but I dont have a FB account (I know, I know, what millennial doesn't?).
Anyway, it will be a couple of months before I take ownership of the car but was trying to be prepared. My family is doing a bit of a car swap and I am ending up with a 2020 Edge ST.
Thanks!

In your original query you mentioned the SYNC3 swap. Hence my reply.
But if you already have completed the swap and and completed your programing etc. Then you can upgrade to SYNC3.4 with nothing needed to be changed via FORScan.
Apologies for the misinformation. Clearly I need an extra cup or two and start firing on all cylinders.
No worries at all. My wording was a bit confusing when I went back and read it. I appreciate the info. I think I might go ahead and give this a go.
As always, I appreciate the info.

Yes, it's a process. Sometimes its plug and play and others you have to program via FORScan.
gotcha, I was hoping I didnt have to do reprogram with forscan again since I did it when I did the swap. Was hoping I could just upgrade to 3.4 right from the current build.
Thanks for the info

I did a few co workers, my brothers '15 sport, my lady's '13SEL with SYNC3 swap and last but not least my '17 sport. You can install SYNC 3.4 on any SYNC 3 equipped edge. 16-18MY. The 19+ comes equipped with SYNC 3.3 which makes upgrading to 3.4 relatively easier.
When you did this on the Sync 3 swap radio, did you have to reflash everything with your forscan profile? Been thinking about doing this with my wife's swapped sync 3 radio as well. She has a 14 limited that I swapped last year.

Not sure of any plans of an official update, but yes if you have the correct files it will upgrade and work oerfectly fine. Our '19 Edge, a well as my '14 Edge and '17 Fusion are all running v3.4 without issue for a few weeks now. (My Fusion was given an upgraded gen4 APIM and my '14 Edge's SYNC3 gen3 APIM was formatted to take v3.2+)
Do you mind sharing how you updated your '14? I just did the Sync2 to 3 upgrade myself for my '14 and would like to do this as well.
Thanks!
Edit: NVM, think I figured it out.

I didn't have any doubts that he would sort you out! Glad to hear that you are enjoying SYNC3! It truly is a night and day experience between SYNC3 and MFT2!
You can say that again. It is almost as good as getting a new car. lol

Just wanted to add to this.
Ordered a kit from @TXFRDOwner and he was able to get me everything I needed for my wife's 2014 limited. Super awesome to work with.
I was going to program myself but then felt a little overwhelmed so I decided to go with Dan over at Sync3Programming.com. All in all, I couldnt be happier. Was a breeze to install, and program.
If you are considering going down this route, they can definitely help you out.
Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions as well. I am happy to assist if I can

At least you see something. Heck, I wont even be able to see this post after a second. Maybe my account is locked or something? This is the most bizarre thing I've ever seen on a forum.

Thanks for the reply! Wish I could see it. lol. I have no clue what is going on right now but I cannot see any posts other than my initial post starting the thread.

Hi everyone, I am from the North Texas area. Recently picked up a 2014 Edge Limited for my wife (bought it from my dad) for her to commute in.
Really enjoying it so far. Just thought I would make the intro.
