I wouldn't think so. Didn't even pay attention to what size mine was.

Two questions on the sync 3.

First, I noticed with the FordPass app is a section that has stats on your vehicle. Is the app supposed to bring information over from the truck as to status? Ie fuel, mileage, any other vehicle data?

Second (see pic ), these tabs seem to be Locked in their position. Should they be able to be switched on and off? Warning chimes and information.

Everything else is working fine.

The FordPass app doesn't do anything for my '15. Well I did have it one time show my fuel level.

My truck only has the first two options so the others if you figure it out can be removed.

Yeah. It showed my fuel amount but mileage and the rest was a no go. I dont really care about these items being on screen, I just wondered if I missed something when I programmed it.

I originally updated to v2.2 (non-nav) using the leaked version. Then when the public-release came out, I updated again to that build. I incorrectly did the full update instead of just installing the single file that changed. Well as a result I now do not have Gracenote (missing version number). Is there any fix to get Gracenote back on my system?

I have a 2016 F150. I have already updated to 2.2 and installed the hub for carplay successfully up underneath the dash. If I install a new module in the center console, will that work to connect my phone for Apple Carplay?

Thanks in advance!

The only way i cured mine was a new APIM replaced by the dealer.

That would depend. If they are just connected to 12v to provide 5v for device charging, no they would not work. The connector in the back seat is an example of this. If they are connected to the APIM, then they would.

I have the leaked v2.2 with Nav installed. Is there now a public version for Nav versions too? And if so, do i need to install the one file and where do i find it?

What is the difference?
