  1. Our car had some pins that pulled out of connector under the seat.
  2. Did they troubleshoot the problem or just say what it costs to replace camera. You may just have a bad connection at the camera or the other end MFT screen.
  3. Do you have a link for this? Sounds interesting.
  4. Didn't know about the Rav4 hybrid, looked it and it only gets 34/30 mpg. Surprised it killed the prius V.
  5. Make sure notifications is enabled on Bluetooth/sync on your phone.
  6. Will Ford dealers service the upgrade (hardware/software) or do you have to go back to the upgrade company?
  7. You can make separate flash drives with the music for each phone and just plug in the usb drive that you want. I just combined ours onto one flash drive since our music tastes are comparable. Plus the usb format sounds a little better than bluetooth.
  8. Chatted with Ford Sync and they said if the dealer tries to charge you for a sync update to mention the 12M02 - SYNC WITH MYFORD MYLINCOLN TOUCH WARRANTY EXTENSION.
  9. Called my dealer today, asked abut sync updates. He sighed. Said people come in all the time and ask for that but they check them and they are up to date. They charge $130 for an update. Told him about the problems with the database/downloads, he was not aware of any problems there.
  10. The 3.8 version I had definitely had VHR since I just ran it a couple weeks ago, everything else seems to running ok so I'll just wait until the next release. Ford really dropped the ball on making sync updates available from their website. I tried to upload the file from the usb drive after loading and that doesn't work anymore unless you download the update from the ford site which broke after 3.6.
  11. I successfully installed 3.10 this morning. Install takes quite a while and appears to restart the install a few times but eventually finishes. Redshift: Looks like Ford decided to remove the vehicle health report from the menu. I guess I'm ok with that. If that is a bug then they will probably fix it with the next update for new phones. I did chat again with Ford sync and they told me the 3.10 update works for all vehicles. They did want me to go to a dealer to install however.
  12. Found it here https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71250920&postcount=834 Was able to download it. Gen2v310build16180updatepackageNA.zip 593.6 MB Note: this build is missing Vehicle Health Report Is anyone running Sync V2 3.10 successfully on a c-max? Looks like it came out last year but was only available from dealers (for some cars). Ford site still shows 3.8 as up to date for my 2013 but then the ford site didn't work right for the last update either.
  13. Went on Ford Sync chat and asked about future updates, got this for a response... As far we know, there will be future updates, however at this time there are none available. :sad:
  14. I think if you go to settings devices before you head down the road and disconnect your phone. Then it should give you turn-by-turn voice commands. But then all the other sync to phone commands won't work.
  15. So I got my new iphone , Got a good deal on 6S Plus so I got that instead of 7 Plus. Seems to work fine except when I ask Siri to give voice directions. That only works if I don't let my phone connect to sync. Connected to sync it gives the map and directions on the screen minus the voice directions. Is this what others are getting?
  16. Yesterday I had a strange occurrence yesterday on a trip. I got into the car and plugged my phone into usb to charge, started the car and the car connected to my wife's phone (primary). Later while driving car was playing bluetooth via her phone and I pressed the sync voice paddle and nothing happened (no bong). I think sync got confused. On the trip home repeated the same process and this time it worked as expected.
  17. Wow 36.2 MPG avg over 100k, he must drive it hard! Welcome back fotomoto
  18. Well, if you want to open it up and take a look it is pretty easy see this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=92mqADxdlwA
  19. Went to Ford sync chat and received this info... Dave says: Trying to find out if an iphone 7 Plus will work with my 2013 c-max sync 2 Deb says: I will be glad to look into this for you. Please stand by while I check the information. Deb says: Thanks for your patience! Yes the iPhones are compatible. Are you having concerns? Dave says: thinking of upgrading to that phone and want to make sure it works first. Dave says: this is sync version 2 Dave says: how about iphone 8 and X Deb says: We do not have any information on those phones as of yet. Dave says: ok thank you
  20. Anyone have a iphone 7 Plus working on sync 2 w/2013? I want to upgrade my iphone from 4S to 7 Plus and I don't see it on the compatibility chart.
  21. Are you sure the engine isn't running?
  22. That sounds like a normal battery charging scheme where its charged and just takes less current as the battery gets fully charged. Perhaps the battery age tracking in the car is just for discharge time with the car turned off.
  23. Interesting, Do you burn upper tier gas that supposedly cleans the injectors?
  24. Perhaps the door was scraped on a tall curb.
