If by "hack" you mean you changed the As Built to unlock the navigation, you will be fine to update if using the official from Ford. I think the most recent update for Sync 2 is 3.10.

Yes..."unlock", that's what I meant . I read on forscan that any update past 3.8 would negate the license, just want to be sure before I wad it up.

that is first time I have heard of that and checked out the Forscan page. I swear I updated my wife’s and my 2015 to 3.10 and had no issues. I eventually upgraded to Sync 3 so I can’t confirm anymore.
