SYNC 4 upgrade

Has anyone had a vehicle with SYNC 4? What improvements does it have over SYNC 3? Is 4 as buggy as 3?

Thanks for any feedback!

I'd want to see it installed more definitively than what's clearly a photoshop.

It's a HARD PASS for me.
You can get a lot of mods done for $3K.

I already have! Everything except the head unit has been replaced, but that's still the weakest link.

I just bought it... I'll let you know as soon as I receive it and install it.

I'm happy to see that we have options now. In addition to this sync4, I know there is supposed to be a metra kit for the maverick but I haven't seen it yet.

So that Sync 4 screen has the climate controls on the screen, but we also have the real buttons on our Mavs...

Lift kits, rooftop tents, etc..

Like has been mentioned, that's $3000 and they couldn't even install it...they had to resort to abysmal photoshopping.

In the picture it shows a new APIM. I had to remove and reinstall mine for a different reason. It's hidden well inside the middle dash. It was pretty straightforward removing the parts in front of it, but disconnecting and reconnecting the wire harnesses to it were a bugger.

There is a good video on you tube showing the whole process, if you want to check it out before your kit arrives.

Good luck! I know I'll be curious as to your results.

I thought the SYNC4 was a Bronco thing. my XL was a late 2021 build. It was sitting on the lot waiting for me. when I got it at a time I was desperate for a new vehicle, after my Escape was totaled when an old lady pulled out in front of me. It’s got a basic radio. I would love the SYNC 3 or 4, but a little costly for me at the present time if I could. switch. My Ecsape had a SYNC3, I loved it.

Yes!!!, I upgraded the APIM to one with Navigation and it's a bit difficult because of the space limitation. It takes a little time but it's not impossible.

Do you have to have Sync 3 for this? That would mean only lariats could do this upgrade.

It is a building/address that has hundreds of companies registered to it. Delaware is very business friendly and so tons and tons of LLC's incorporate with a Delaware address. Essentially just for tax purposes. It is like a "virtual" office. I think Google says that one address has something like 250 businesses at it.
