I have never successfully reported an update through the Ford Owner website. I believe if you connect to wifi and manually scan for updates, this will also report the update has been completed.
I wonder what benefit that provides? Does it report possible bugs in the software? If not, I'll probably pass. My wifi in the driveway is weak.

I believe this updates both Oasis and Fordpass which will remove the update from your available Sync 3 updates.

It’ll phone home what you’re currently running. If you want potential bugs reported you need to toggle on the diagnostics option in analytics and diag settings, if you’ve got it connected to WiFi. Then if anything happens it’ll send it in. You can also submit generic bug reports from that menu, just make sure you do it as soon as possible after some event happens.

OK, I used wifi and scanned for updates. Now the ford site says I'm update to date.

After updating I scanned for updates. Now it’s downloading this.

So after installing this latest update, I connected to wifi and ran a manual scan to prompt the system to recongnize Sync 3 has been updated to the latest version/build and now it is downloading a file that was not part of the update.

Anyone know what this file is for?

Disregard, this question was answered as I pecked out my post from my phone.

Anyone know how long this takes?

My Sync 3 update, without the map update, took 32 minutes.

The map chunks are usually are around 1 GB, then it'll need the NAV VOICE pack which is another 1 and some GBs. So, could take a bit depending on your speeds and such.

That's just another piece of the map update. The NAV VOICE pack.
