  1. Hope they didn't have a problem with the 13B07 update that they have to rev the software again.
  2. Ok, my car came with 3.5.1 and was built 2/18/13 and I did install via flash successfully and was registered as installed so why does does ford website say I need to go to a service center to install 3.6.2?
  3. Hmm , That doc also shows 13171 as 3.6.2 for c-max I looked at supportford website for my sync history and it shows this... Date Downloaded: Aug 4, 2013 Version: Gen2 - V3.6.2 But the part about not being able to use a flash drive is puzzling. Have you called Ford on this?
  4. Found this Ford doc which states that 13171 is 3.6.2
  5. I put fresh air in my tires every few months, that along with the ruby red color I figure buys me 2-3 MPG more.
  6. See post 75 on this thread http://fordcmaxhybridforum.com/topic/2576-mft-36/
  7. According to EPA data update only improves city driving not highway. YMMV
  8. Would be cool to have three seperate programs with optimizations for city,highway & combined that you could load from a flash drive before going on a trip, or better yet have it be a menu choice on the touch screen.
  9. If wasn't rigged then I would expect to see about half of c-max's getting lower mpg than at the pump mpg values but everyone that has commented on the difference states that their display is higher so I expect Ford fudged it towards higher mpg.
  10. I don't have any problem with CR mpg rating, they were testing pre-update and in the winter. Plus the MPG display on the C-max is always off reading higher than it really is, shame on Ford.
  11. My car got this same notice, not sure what to do yet. It is possible that when we notified ford of the completed 3.6.2 sync update it was able to see the log file of the install on the flash drive and there were errors and it does need to be reloaded. The question to ask I guess is did anyone update their 3.6.2 sync and not have the notice online for the requested service for the dealer installed 3.6.2 update?
  12. When it read 45-50 and charging was the battery level increasing/decreasing or staying the same?
  13. Very nice calculator, you need to update the Cmax hybrid to 43 mpg
  14. http://www.autos.ca/general-news/ford-didnt-test-c-max-before-rating-fuel-economy-will-give-rebates/ $895 Please close this thread
  15. Its in the other thread,it was about 300 more than US.
  16. The first half of my current tank was pre-update and was getting 44.6mpg. I now have 97 miles post update on the same tank and am getting 46.1mpg since the update. Seems to still be slowly climbing, expect it to go a little higher by the end of the tank. This is all city driving with 2372 total miles on the car. The headliner recall seems invisible to me.
  17. Welcome FranOR, Nice car. We have a lot in common I am also a retired engineer in Oregon. Enjoy the forum.
  18. Mine shows same , I updated Sync to 3.6.2 when it first came out.
  19. My car had all the updates and they dropped off the FordEtis website except I still have this one remaining. How does this one get received and dropped off since its just a warranty extension. 12M02 - SYNC WITH MYFORD/MYLINCOLN TOUCH - WARRANTY EXTENSION COVERING ACCESSORY PROTOCO L INTERFACE MODULE (APIM)
  20. Wow you are really loaded, is there a Prius V in your future? ;)
  21. How about $550? Maybe we should wait and see what the 2014 is rated for MPG.
  22. By subtracting the pre change numbers to post change numbers in the epa doc you can see how much the powertrain update improves mileage according to epa. combined 2 mpg improvement city 3 mpg improvement highway no change
