salprint Report post Posted December 10, 2012 When I picked up my Fusion, they told me there was an upgrade and they didn't want to put in the navigation because they were waiting for the updated version. We brought it in last week and they did the update. It added some new features which are pretty cool. One of them shows a Diagram of the car on the screen and it shows how the charge is flowing or gas if you are not in EV mode. It also shows all the functions and if they are active or not. It also explains why the engine might be running....like calling for heat or engine cold, or acceleration, etc.I like it....I hope I can get it for my C-Max.

Called the dealership and checked syncmyride... says no update? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ric Report post Posted December 11, 2012 There is no update at the present time if you also have navagation. That will be coming in Jan. At that time the update will include a new nav SD card. Please be aware that if you perform the update without the replacement SD card in a Navigation-equipped vehicle, your Navigation system will be inoperable.

Nmadole Report post Posted December 12, 2012 There is no update showing for me either... but the dealership agreed to try to install My Ford Touch 3.5 on friday... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
neevers1 Report post Posted December 12, 2012 That's probably the way to go, but I'd rather not have to take it back just to update the software. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
acdii Report post Posted December 12, 2012 oh I sure hope it fixes some issues I have with mine. Sometimes it doesnt respond to touch, other times it is really slow. the weather map sometimes doesnt show anything at all, sometimes it splits the screen, and other times its fine. Sometimes I just want to punch the flipping thing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ric Report post Posted December 12, 2012 I hope all goes good. Let us know. I'm interested in the screen showing the how the charge is flowing between EV and gas mode. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looks similar to what my 2007 Camry Hybridmhas on Navigation screen. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
acdii Report post Posted December 13, 2012 The 2010 has that screen, I looked all over when I first got in the car for it, and was surprised it wasnt there. Good to know it is being added, but seems like an after thought. I wonder what else they forgot. BTW, forgot to mention, Dont trust the nav to find a faster path. It took me off the main highways, down rural roads, to save 15 minutes, then I had to wait 30 minutes for a damned Ferry, which had it been after 9:30 at night, would have caused me to turn around, since it stopped running after that time. But thats not the best part. After we got across the river, the next road it wanted me to turn on came up as an unknown road, and it said, travel at your own risk. WTF? HUH? It was a dark stormy night too. Thankfully I had a Tom Tom which led me back to the main highway again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

acdii Report post Posted December 16, 2012 mine has NAV, so I have to wait. I dont know why they didn't do that from the start. Would be nice to know what is draining the battery when parked. I have everything turned off, and the down arrow under the battery is lit. Stupid weather doesnt work either. Only once did it actually show the rain on the map, and then on a refresh, it split up, half was one size, the rest was something else, and today, nothing.

cnsheets Report post Posted December 17, 2012 If you dont have the latest 3.5.1 software and you do have Nav, just take it into your dealer and tell them you are having problems with myford touch and the Nav and tell them to update to the newest version and supply a new A4 Nav card. There is a TSB out for it, Dealer will do it if you take it in, or you can elect to wait until they make the update available via syncmyride website and send you a new A4 card. Here is the TSB......dealer can not refuse to update the software or give you a new A4 card..... Print this, take it with you, tell them to do it.... https://dl.dropbox.com/u/1257774/tsb12-11-01.pdf Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
