edh Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 Have Sync 3 v. 2.3 in my 2017 Everest. Found quite a few discrepancies in the built in Navi. How is the map updated? Is it done when Sync 3 updates from current v. 2.3 or is done as a stand-alone update? Anyone have any experience with this?

hkt83100 Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 IMHO any built-in navigation system is money out of the window. There are many free (as in Free Beer) solutions using OpenStreetMaps or HERE Maps, which are frequently updated for FREE. I would hate to pay hefty sums for an update like Toyota is charging for example. Give your mobile phone some reasonable Job2Do... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My question was if anyone know how the maps within the Sync 3 are updated - by Sync 3 updates or standalone updates of the map system.

Says I have the latest. But what I asking is if the Navi is updated through this or separately (SD card/CD or similar)?ThanksSent from my iPhone using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
