    Eco boost mpg

    I've got a 2016 Limited. I'm averaging 21.4 over the 34000 miles I've put on her. It's gotten to where I'll get 22.1-22.4 on a tank, but I think that had to do with winter blends. Caveat, mine is a 2wd and I do the majority of my driving with my thumbs.

    Rain sensing wipers

    You don't have "rain sensing wipers". You have a rain sensor that controls the wipers. The sensor is optical and is located on the windshield above the rear view mirror. If you don't want them coming on, leave the wiper switch in the off position. Leaving it in any other position will leave it...

    Phone audio started sounding like a cheap two inch speaker.

    OK, so it's been a while. I have an update and a solution to the Phone audio issue I've been experiencing. After replacing the APIM it still didn't work. So the tech spent a couple of hours with the tech line at Ford. Both of them came to the conclusion that the ACM (Audio Control Module) was...

    Phone audio started sounding like a cheap two inch speaker.

    And one more piece of information. The new Sync module went in at Sync 3.0, build is 20xxx (I'm not in the care and can't remember). As long as Android Auto works (and the phone of course) I'm not sure I care which version/build I'm on; anyone care to clue me in? Jeff

    Phone audio started sounding like a cheap two inch speaker.

    So here's an update. The new Sync module has been installed and everything worked as advertised,.......for about four days. Then we're back to phone audio problems again. Well, we were. This lasted about two days. Sunday, I got a call and everything works fine. Yesterday everything is working...

    Phone audio started sounding like a cheap two inch speaker.

    Aspen, Thanks for the response. Thanks for the great information. Lots of things here that I've never considered. However, I think I need to discount most all of it. Reason for this is that it happens with any phone attached to my car. It only affects my car. And both mine and my wifes phones...

    Phone audio started sounding like a cheap two inch speaker.

    Rayjyee, That is a possibility. I had the dealer upgrade to Sync 3.4 prior to delivery. It's been fine for 11 months. We will find out as we have ordered a replacement APIM. What is interesting is that over the weekend I had three calls TO me where everything sounded as it should; through the...

    Yupster Dog, Those were actually two of the first steps I went through, followed by a Sync Master Reset.

    Phone audio started sounding like a cheap two inch speaker.

    Hi Joe, So I tried what you suggested. I turned off HD Calling in my phone. Deleted the Bluetooth connection from Sync and from my phone and tried to connect again. Late Breaking News!!!! Now Sync will not connect via Bluetooth to my phone. Turned HD Calling back on, restarted phone. Same thing...

    Phone audio started sounding like a cheap two inch speaker.

    I recently posted this in a different forum. Apparently it was the wrong forum as I didn't receive any responses. Trying here. I've got a 2016 Expedition Limited. I've had it about a year. Sync is at 3.4. This week, all of a sudden, made and received calls sound as if I'm listening to them on a...

    Phone audio started sounding like a cheap two inch speaker.

    I posted this almost a week ago. So far no one has responded. I wonder if I posted it in the wrong forum?

    Phone audio started sounding like a cheap two inch speaker.

    I've got a 2016 Expedition Limited. I've had it about a year. Sync is at 3.4. This week, all of a sudden, made and received calls sound as if I'm listening to them on a cheap transister radio speaker held about six feet from my ear. This is only in MY car. I transfer cars for a local Ford dealer...

    2016 / 2017 Sync 3.4 Success?

    I'm new to this forum. I actually found the forum looking for exactly this information. Problem is, I can't get the Ford website to download the update. Nothing happens. So.....to make a boring story short, I think my simplest route is to let Ford do it. Mine doesn't have Nav, but since my...
