Just wanted to know if anyone got the latest sat Nav update.

I'm assuming all ford satnav are run of the same firmware.

At moment though Ford have problems with their update website so you may be able to download F8 seems to depend on vehicle VIN .

It's quite confusing how do I update satnav on my own. What is f8?

Do you know what version of sync you have? I'm guessing from your profile vehicle 2015 g cmax  it's sync2 . Is the screen a touch screen?

Put your vin in to this website

I updated to F8 a month ago. It took a very long time to download, it depends on the speed of your broadband mine took 15 hrs. and then just over an hour to update the Sat Nav.

I presume you have either sync or sync2 given the age of your vehicle, and to get the latest version of the maps you need to buy a memory card with them on, can be got from Ford or sellers on eBay.

F8 is the latest version of maps for sync3 thats a touch screen.
