Sync resets every time vehicle is shut off

[colinl]

I found the 3.4.23188 file thru a website called Cyanlabs. They have software a person can download to their computer that allows them to download the 3.4.23188 file, place on a USB stick and download to the vehicle.

My concern is Ford says my Sync 3 is up to date and doesn't offer me this updated file. Going this other route seems confusing (atleast to me) and possibly problem causing if done wrong.

I don't have any current Sync 3 issues, so I'm going to leave it alone for now. Had I issues, or Ford offered the file thru their site for some feature enhancement, or even just to stay updated, I'd do it.

Somebody more computer suave than I may be comfortable going the Cyanlabs route, though?

Good luck.

I would not install anything that isn't directly from Ford. There was a link above and if you're logged in to Ford's website and enter your VIN, you should always get a link to download the latest Sync3, even if it is up to date. That's been my experience at least.

Weird. Mine is not providing any options for downloading any updates or even the current files. This is what I see when I enter my VIN.

I'm going to contact Ford and see what skinny is.

This was Ford Chat's response to my question. I guess 3.4.22251 is as updated as mine can be?

Thanks all. I will check this out. Sync keeps reverting to 2 pages of presets and SXM behaves strangely. Won’t stay in night mode”. No updates available OTA.

Everything worked fine for weeks until I was an idiot and scanned for updates. It showed no updates available but things started behaving strangely.
