It has 2 fuel filters now, one engine-mounted and the other frame-mounted.

Sorry for the long post, and that my question isn't totally a Ranger question, but related. Regarding Sync 3. On my 2017 Explorer with Sync 3 I have the auto update feature enabled so, as the owners manual states, if connected to wifi, Sync will auto update if a software update is available. Just being curious I checked recently on the Ford owner site to see if any downloads were there and there is a Sync 3 software update available. The site says the update can be done with wifi or usb. The vehicle sits in the garage within wifi range. The update hasn't auto happened with wifi so I went the usb route. At a certain point in putting the update on a usb stick it told me I had to contact the dealer. I did. The dealer told me the update has to be done at a dealer at a cost of $99. In reading the Ranger owners manual the update procedure is worded exactly like the Explorer. Question: Does anyone have a Ford vehicle that they have updated the Sync 3 either wifi or usb? Or did you have to have a dealer do it? I wonder why the manual and website are so specific as to how to do the update when it has to be done at a dealer, just say a dealer has to do it. In talking to the dealers service manager to answer my questions on this he was very non descriptive, very offish just, yeah we have to do it. So I'm paying the $99 this week to get the update. Any comments on this before I pay the dealer and moving forward with my Ranger will be much appreciated.

Can't you just manually download and install the update using your wifi? My Fiesta ST has Sync3 and there is an option to manually check for and install updates.

Any way I try to do the update I get a "contact the dealer" prompt.

I updated our 2016 Escape’s Sync 3 using a USB two weeks ago from v1 to v3. No issues; performed with engine running as per instructions.

Note that the files you download must be extracted from the downloaded zip file onto a clean flash drive. The instructions on the internet will have you believe the zip file should be copied to the flash drive.

The owners manual says:

For trailer towing
information refer to the RV and
Trailer Towing Guide available at
an authorized dealer.

Does anyone have a copy of this document? Is it on the forum? tnx

tnx

I see that the publication is still pending updates next month for the new Ranger, so we will have to wait for the final version.
