Says the same thing for me, that it's ready for 3.4, but doesn't download. I'm guessing that's the same issue just about everyone is having, server could be down if ton of people are trying to download?

I guess mine maxes at 3.0 since it’s a 2017 or am I missing something?

v3.0 is the latest for you unless you update via Cyanlabs.

Just reread your post. Are you having an issue getting the new files to download from Ford, like everyone else right now?

Or do you already have the DL from Ford?

Original response

Nathan, just to be clear, nothing get directly downloaded to the USB. The download from Ford goes to your computer. You then unzip the file, again onto your computer. Once down you just copy and past the required files from your computer onto your USB. Is this what you have done?

Just make sure you have the latest build #. You should have 19025.

Got it. Haven't even thought to look for updates until this thread popped up in my email!

I can confirm that in the vehicle, correct?

Yes, Go to settings, general, sync. You will find all of your version numbers on the about sync page.

Yes, site is still down. Check back tomorrow.

That is an awesome list! Would you be able to make a list of all the items outside of the voice commands?

See prior post, but super short answer is no.

Ok haha is it just the new look and marginally faster?

There’s probably quite a bit there, you just have to go hunting for it. Some new items may not apply to older MYs as well. Lot of new UI items for sure.

Excellent comeback!!

I typed in my VIN for my 17 and it said there is an update available. Haven't done it yet. Will report back.

I have completed the update without any issues on a UK spec car.

Used a newish USB3 drive, although Ford only supports USB2 the read rate of even USB3 drives is only just exceeding USB bus speeds so best to use the newest drive possible. Formatted to exFAT as Ford suggest which is not the default on a PC

Update took around 25 minutes. I edited the autoinstall.lst file to include the ,Delay which prevents the automatic reboot loop. When complete I had a message to remove the USB drive and that the update would happen next time I restarted.

Upon restart it displayed the 'Ford' logo on first boot and then took a bit longer than normal to start, maybe an extra 30 seconds.

Some of the settings were not retained such as the Applink settings. The Nav could not connect to the GPS but this maybe because of the slower than normal boot during update.

A further reboot after a complete car shutdown and lock restored the Mustang logo and GPS came back to life.

The removed USB had the xml file generated correctly which uploaded to the Ford site correctly

All in all completely painless.

Same here.
USB update went smooth and finished fast (22 minutes).

Xml file generated by SYNC 3 and uploaded to Ford.

Now Ford site showing me the message "Your SYNC system (SYNC v3.4.43) is up to date"
Mission accomplished.

I need updated maps now.
Does someone knows, where/how can I officially get them for European countries?
