Comares2001 Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 As I stated elsewhere I have had" try again later" for some time now . Ford still have software issue .Complain to them as I did and they'll update you . UKCRC@ford.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PLB Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 Same here, my 2019 mk4 Focus is on version 3.3 build 18351 and I also get the "try again later" message regarding the map F8 update. I will wait a little longer and if no joy I will email ford at UKCRC@ford.com as suggested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianincheshire Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Mine updated to 18351 a week or so ago and been getting the 'try again later' fro the maps update. Today the maps update is back to the 0.0mb download of the Interrogator package that's not valid!. Will perhaps try the 'real' interrogator package again, that does work!!

PLB Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Just tried and I am now being offered the 0.0mb (actualy 52.65kb) Map_54320_Update.zip file. Therefore, unfortunately still waiting for the correct file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NortonSS Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Damn and blast after living in hope for the last two days the Ford udate site has gone from "try again later" to the useless 0MB file🤢. Whats wrong with Ford ? there's been a problem with the F8 map update ever since I bought the car in January , why can't they fix it and if they can't then remove the useless file from the site until they do. I e mailed them last Thursday but i'm still waiting for a reply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comares2001 Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 So what the hell is going on now. 2 hours ago I checked website and there was a 1.6gb map update available. I downloaded and unzipped this and installed in car.It only took 15 mins and screen said update would work next time car was started. No difference navigation still on F7. Uploaded logfile successfully but website 2hours later still says there is a 1.6gb download. On checking this download .Under SyncMyride it only contains 2 files exactly the same as 2 files that were in the version 3.3 software update I did last week. Anyone else found this yet ????

gillyallan Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 In my experience once you upload a log file it can take up to a week to change as being up to date. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check your Sync 3.3 build version. I had a small update like you offered me a couple of weeks ago which just updated the build version from 18201 to 18351. It created a log file which I successfully uploaded via the ford website. Having said that like you and many others we are still awaiting the F8 map update.

Comares2001 Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 I was already on 18351. Website said software was up to date. This download was under map updates ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope your right but sync3 software update I got a week ago was showing updated after about 10mins. In any case what I downloaded under map updates today wasn't a map update but some of the version 3.3 sync software already downloaded . This is going from bad to worse in my case.

Jonro2009 Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 WHen I upgraded my Sync3 unit I uploaded the log file to Ford and it took 2 weeks before the F8 map update was available to me, it’s a 25G file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NortonSS Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 OK so you had to wait two weeks before the correct F8 map udate came along, before then were you getting the 0MB update file ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonro2009 Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 For the first two weeks it was as if the log file had not updated the server and I was getting a message to say I still needed to update the software, when it did register I got a message saying the update was available but it was 0mb. When I did get the F8 file available it failed the first 3 times a tried to download it, it takes an age. It’s now working perfectly in the car, my house is on a new development (2015) and it’s finally made the update! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gillyallan Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Today the update site saying my maps are up to date. Up till then I had the 0mb update. 2017 model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NortonSS Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Iv,e have now lost the plot , ever since I bought the car in January the Ford download site has been showing either the 0MB file or try again later. At 8 this morning the site was showing i needed the useless 0MB upload, just tried again at 11 am and it is now saying my maps are up to date. I emailed Ford last week but they just said contact the dealer. Hopefully there will be an F9 version soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gillyallan Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 I was quite surprised when I read the talk of F9 on SD card, as it wasnt that long ago we had F8 on sync 3 and in turn F7 was only towards end 2018. I was thinking they maybe look to be doing twice yearly and so wasn't expecting F9 until maybe late August. That doesn't explain why it's on SD already though.As much as I like up to date maps, any more than twice yearly is a bit of a pain. Sure you don't have to take it, but if it's there I will no doubt.

ianincheshire Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Ford Customer service really are hopeless. I've, eventually, got a reply to an email complaining about the lack of Sync updates and asking when the fiasco of invalid 0.0Mb updates is going to be fixed. Here's the gist of the reply Quote I am sorry to hear of your concerns and the inconvenience encountered; however, we appreciate you taking the time to contact us direct with your comments however as we are unable to inspect vehicles personally, we rely on the expertise of Ford Dealerships to thoroughly inspect vehicles and feedback the necessary information. We advise that you contact your local Ford dealership who are best equipped to investigate this concern. Absolutely useless.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comares2001 Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 I am also now getting " maps are up to date". I guess that's progress as at least they've removed the rubbish 0MB download.After I emailed Ford several times they did respond by escalating the complaint and giving me a case manager. So I suggest everyone else asks for this.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is incorrect as I am still on F7. So, the fiasco continues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
