Sorry yeah 2.2 mine was too.

Incidentally, and off topic, but how the heck does the back end of focus get so dirty?

      Good questions, Jonro. I know nothing but don't see why the engine would have to be running for the update to work. I vaguely recall that the owner's manual suggests the car just gets on with it.

      Have you tried what I was saying about opening the install file in notepad to see if it's come all in one line? If you look a few pages down the focus threads for one about sync 1.1 you'll see it in t

    So.......... after some months do people think it's actually worth the fiddle-faddle of updating? Has anyone found they were worse off after the update?

    Thanks.
