Morning all, probably a question asked many times....
I am trying to update my maps, this is third time I have downloaded the files onto brand new 64gb usb flash drive, each time I get this error message?

You need to go down the Will Work Route and ditch the Ford Might Work Route😉

easiest way to update maps is to buy a new sd card, i went to fleabay and bought one for £22, had a sticker with tom tom on it, gave it a go, works perfect, finding roads that are only 2 months old.

Bought my car with map version F6.1 on sync v 3.0 upps. Looks like I got to do some reading up to do this weekend. Does anyone know if the dealers have a fast track way to do this via a direct link connection to the module? Doing this via a usb port or wifi seems a very slow way.

I dont use Ford route Ross, hopeless and not reliable so not sure what update you will have, but guarantee it wont be as up to date as the super highway

Just a point re the guy who was saying his 2014 car with sync 3 and an SD card could have been some April 1st foolery.
