Ford Cortina/Capri Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 I decided to check my wife's 2018 Fiesta to update the Sync 3. I've downloaded the file and extracted them on to a USB exFAT format. Started the process on her car but, it's taking forever. The file is 23GB big so, anyone any idea how long that should take ? Apparently, once I've updated the system, there is another upgrade for the maps. The car is currently on version 3.0 build19205 with maps F6.1. What is the latest version ?

Comares2001 Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 23GB sounds very large file for Sync3 software update ( that's normally around 3GB). Sounds more like map update, latest version available is F8 although F9 due soon ?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ford Cortina/Capri Posted January 26, 2020 Author Share Posted January 26, 2020 Just tried doing it again, fresh download and install to the usb, after an hour the update system disappeared so gave up. Were can I get a smaller update as this one is to big. Must have a few updates and it's trying to do them all on one big update Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iantt Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Don't bother with the updates off fords servers at present. They are having issues, so I would wait a few weeks then try again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must have a few updates and it's trying to do them all on one big update You could try just leaving the stick in - i've had updates that don't seem to be doing anything (you can turn the car off and it will just resume next time you start the car) and it will suddenly say - "complete" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iantt Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 I wouldn't bother at present . Ford are aware the downloads are flawed and have stopped the servers from letting consumers download the sync updates and maps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
