Question for you. On the 2025 Bronco Sport loaner I had with Sync 4, you couldn't browse what songs were on SiriusXM, it only showed the channel names. Does yours do this?
I’ll look tonight and update.Question for you. On the 2025 Bronco Sport loaner I had with Sync 4, you couldn't browse what songs were on SiriusXM, it only showed the channel names. Does yours do this?
On my Sync 3 it shows what song is on each channel when you hit the Browse tab.

Where did you purchase the dongle? I would like to go that route as well
My son has a 2025 Bronco Sport and wish the Maverick had the big screen and Sync4 or Ford made an easy path to upgrade. If I didn't just dump moneys into a lot of new Ham Stuff. I would be all over the 12" upgrade..Question for you. On the 2025 Bronco Sport loaner I had with Sync 4, you couldn't browse what songs were on SiriusXM, it only showed the channel names.

It's essentially the same kit.
Same with this site, this company provides the kits to panda motorworks. I opted for the 8” as I don’t like the larger screen.
Unfortunately, this system never supported a larger screen, so there’s no option other than to upgrade to sync 4. My experience is the last few days makes it a night and day difference. Whatever channel I was listening to or input is immediately ready to go as soon as I turn my truck on, instead of the old system, that would sometimes turn the radio off, sometimes tune to a random station I wasn’t listening to, or decide to never connect to my phone
Unless there’s a recall for the AC on, you’re fine. But this is a completely different module than the one that came with the truck, so you could always just put the factory ACM in and go get your recall done and come home and take it out.
Does your vehicle have the B&O sound system? If so, were you able to retain the surround sound setting?I have been looking for a good plug and play sync 4 kit for a while now. After a long time searching, I came across https://oemplusupgrades.com. Sam’s pricing was on the lower side for these kinds of kits, so I was hesitant on what I would receive. I was wrong! It truly was plug and play, other than a few software glitches that were easily fixed with forscan and a session with Sam over the phone. I also opted to add a SiriusXM antenna so now I have full xm radio!
I also have the voice assistant and wireless CarPlay. This is miles above the horrendous factory non-sync system!
It is a tight fit getting everything in place but once it’s in, I didn’t have any concerns.
The APIM provided is one out of an f150 so it has the navigation map but unfortunately can’t be activated as it’s a connected subscription and as it’s not native to the Maverick, can’t be activated. That’s not an issue for me as I prefer Apple Maps anyways, but having the map is nice anyways.
