Sync Gen1 with v2 firmware upgrade


dimmer

Recommended Posts

I have a 2010 Lincoln MKZ , that I've had for years and love.

The one thing that has always bugged me is the flakey bluetooth connectivity with my iphone.

It doesn't resume its connection the next time I start the car and sometimes difficult to connect. 

As I understand it, upgrading is a 2-step process and the first step is vin specific.

The syncmyride site says that there are no upgrades available; however, I've seen/read other owners with same radio that have upgraded.

I can't find any details anywhere on how to upgrade from the older firmware.

Can anyone provide insite?

Yes, BT can be flaky... but remember that you have a 13 year old car, using 13 year old software (including BT) and I bet you have a modern iphone, that may or may not like your old system.

 

SyncMyRide, for that car probably has not been updated in a very long time....  and why it tells you there are no updates, most likely because there are none for that car

 

if you like your car, there are a few options.  Swap out the hardware for something more modern, or trade up..  OR, live with it.  😎
