I just took delivery of a 2017 GT PP. Love the car and am getting a lot of great info from the forum. I understand from here that Sync3 v 2.2 is the current version, but when I run the "check for updates" feature, it comes back with the current time and date and says it checked up for updates, even though I'm still on v2.0.

It seems to get on my home wifi OK, and takes a few seconds to run the check, but no update has showed up. Any ideas?

v2.0 is the latest release for 2017 Fords.

Thanks. It does have nav. Weird that it shows that it checked, but I know from this forum that it should be v2.2. I can't find anywhere on Ford's website where it shows the current version being used. I could do a USB update like I did with my 2012 F-350, but what fun is that when the car has WiFi?

Ford has not released v2.2 to anyone except some Lincoln owners yet. v2.0 remains the latest release for 2017 vehicles. Even then, the v2.2 leak is not meant to upgrade v2.0 so attempt at your own risk.

OK, thanks. I must have misread the forum. Seems like everyone was touting v2.2 as being the current version.

Is 2.2 meant to upgrade the 1.0 then?

yes. v1.0 or the rare v1.1 get upgraded to v2.2, but that upgrade hasn't yet been released for Ford vehicles. ...only Lincolns.

...

Although, there have been many successful upgrades by owners across many different Ford vehicle lines using the Lincoln release ;)

Yeah I just went from 1.0 to 2.2 earlier today. Pretty sweet! Now I'm just waiting on the USB hub to get here.

2.2 is the current leaked version. I used it to upgrade my 2017 Explorer with Nav that came with 2.0 to 2.2 with no ill effects. Your mileage may vary so if you aren't having any issues with 2.0 waiting doesn't hurt.
