JoeBrown Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 (edited) Thanks for the heads up on that file 3 of 14, it takes a while to process. :) Once it got past that it went quicker through the rest of the files. I didn't have any issues and it went quite smoothly. Edited October 7, 2015 by JoeBrown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hermans Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 (edited) Yes, there is no update available. They skipped the 2013's when there was a 3.7 update. Still nothing. I even spoke to the hybrid tech at the dealer, He looked it up.....no update. Edited October 10, 2015 by hermans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Vandermat Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 I installed update on my 2013 yesterday. Went smooth. Lost time, splash screen and phone pairing, but other than that no issues. Love the new Siri features Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hermans Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Bummer! I got the 3.8 update from another source and applied it to my 13 yesterday....works perfectly even though Lincoln said there was no update available. I also used it to update my 2015 MKC. Again no issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hermans Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 (edited) Care to share this "source" for your fellow '13 owners? :) It's on the fusion hybrid forms under one of the 3.8 update forms. Look for the post from IraF. He has a link to his dropbox account and you can download it from there. It works. Have a funderful day..... http://fordfusionhybridforum.com/topic/10558-version-38-available/ post #14 Note - My 2015 Escape (that I got rid of) was still on my Ford Owner site and there was a download there. I downloaded it and tried to update unsuccessfully. Turns out the owner site download was missing 2 files. IraF's download includes the two iles needed for the update to work. I also used it to update my 2015 MKC. Edited October 10, 2015 by hermans SteveB_TX 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveB_TX Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 (edited) Thanks for the info Hermans, but I downloaded the update from the MyLincoln website. It installed just fine. Reporting it to Sync was a bear, as I ended up having to turn off all my ad and tracker blocking add-ons in Firefox. Unfortunately, the MyFord website does not show an update available for our 2013 Fushion Hybrid. I wonder if the file I downloaded from the MyLincoln site will work on the Fusion? Hmmm... :whistling: Edited October 11, 2015 by SteveB_TX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hermans Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 The Lincoln site showed there was not an update for my MKZh. Same with the MKC. The one I used was from someone who owns a Fusion. They worked for both my Lincolns. I was not able to report the updates as both sites said there was none. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hope the IV person on the FFH forum can get some fixes going so the MyFord site will start showing an update being available. I guess I will go ahead and install the update I got from MyLincoln, and just wait until the MyFord site gets its stuff together to report it. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenZ Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 I have a 2013 MKZh and 2015 MKC. The Lincoln site did show Sync updates for both. I downloaded both and updated each separately without any problems. I don't know for sure if the actual update files were different. Both were the exact same file size. I wonder if they don't show update available for everyone at the same time to avoid a log-jam of the system. Sort of like Windows 10 did with it's upgrade. My notification for Windows 10 update was across 10 days for my 3 windows based computers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just downloaded the ISO file, burned it to DVD, and installed the thing on all the machines. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radioavon Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Hello, I'm new, but I just bought a used '15 MKZ and was trying to update my SYNC to use with siri but the Lincoln site is telling me 3.7 is the latest update even though clearly there was a 3.8 after, Wondering if anyone still has that 3.8 file available? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeBrown Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 I could be wrong but I seem to remember that 3.8 was only for 2014. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tgara Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Hello, I'm new, but I just bought a used '15 MKZ and was trying to update my SYNC to use with siri but the Lincoln site is telling me 3.7 is the latest update even though clearly there was a 3.8 after, Wondering if anyone still has that 3.8 file available? Thanks! I upgraded my 2015 MKZ from Sync 3.7 to 3.8 back in January. The only caveat I can see is that your 2015 car must have the MyLincolnTouch system of Sync in order to upgrade, but I think all 2015 cars had that. The dealer should be able to install the upgrade for you, btw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xceebeex Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 (edited) So I downloaded this update from the dropbox and the first thing I noticed was that when it starts installing the files it says 1 of 8, whereas others are referring to 1 of 14. Did I do something wrong? EDIT: Nevermind, I found the 3 of 14 that everyone was referring to, ha!

Rue Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Will someone upload the 3.8 update. I have 3.6 and the website said thats the latest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laminar Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 The Fusion forum has a helpful thread. There was a 3.10 update that existed for just a little bit. I have it on my Edge, no noticeable changes but it's there. http://www.2gfusions.net/showthread.php?pid=98942 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crushalot Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 The Fusion forum has a helpful thread. There was a 3.10 update that existed for just a little bit. I have it on my Edge, no noticeable changes but it's there. http://www.2gfusions.net/showthread.php?pid=98942 Thanks Laminar. That was a helpful thread. I have downloaded the 3.8 update from a link in that thread and it installed perfectly. Seems to be faster response of Sync all around, but is most noticeable on the touchscreen. I don't have an iPhone, so I can't use the new Siri stuff but overall 3.8 (Technically 3.08) seems to be much better than 3.6. I will use 3.8 for a few weeks and then perhaps update to 3.10. If anyone is interested, this is direct link to download the 3.8 update. Just run the EXE and extract it all to a blank fat32 formatted USB drive: http://givisivsustorageprod.blob.core.windows.net/swparts/Gen2v38build15128serviceNARev2.exe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
