Hey people,
I was wondering if anyone was having a similar issue that I was. When I bought my ST last year, it had version 4.2 on it. No matter how many times I've ran the Vehicle Health Report, and checked for updates, it was still saying I had the latest update, even though I know that's not true. I contacted the Ford IVT Team on here, and they basically said the newer update had issues and they pulled it from the site. Fair enough. They also said a new one would be released "very soon." That PM was dated November of last year. I waited, and waited, and nothing.
After losing patience, I decided to try and troubleshoot it myself. I pulled the fuse for SYNC to attempt a hard reset. When I plugged it back in and ran another VHR, I checked my SYNC version on the site again and, lo and behold, an update was available! It was for version 4.6. I downloaded it to a USB, and tried to start the process, but now my car won't find the files needed. I'm very computer literate, so I know what I'm doing as far as making sure the files are in the right place. I followed the instructions to a T, but for the life of me I cannot get the car to recognize the USB stick or find those files. I've tried 3 different drives, I've called customer service and they didn't know what to tell me, and I'm basically out of options I think. So I'm asking here in the hopes that someone has a miracle cure for this.
Also, out of curiosity, what version of SYNC do you guys have? I browse here somewhat frequently and I don't recall seeing anyone mentioning a 4.6 update. I know there was the 4.4 that added metadata to streaming Bluetooth, but no mention of this new update that I have. For reference, the file name is GG1T-14D544-AB.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
