Buy a new truck or upgrade my 2015?
I was looking at the new features on the 2016-2017 Ford F150's and the only thing I was missing or wanting on my 2015 Platinum was the new Sync3 system with android auto. So instead of buying a new truck I decided to upgrade my head unit. The kit that 4Dtech provided was complete and took me less then an hour to install. The instructional video really helped and I couldn't be more happier with my decision. I chose not to get the navigation upgrade since I really wanted to use google maps and Waze which works wonderfully and is voice controlled. The kit is quite expensive but I saved a lot more money by not buying a new truck! Now that I have the Sync 3 system installed I really do feel like my truck is brand new again.

Decision Time on a leased 2015 F150 - Way to go - just add Sync 3 upgrade + NAV
Title says it all I was at a point of making a decision whether or not to keep my 2015 F150 Alum body with My Touch 2 or to turn in at lease end. Keeping in mind I've added many other upgrades so I'm somewhat vested in this truck........
But the My Touch Sync 2 was just the one thing that bugged the hell out of me especially as Ford
rolled out Sync 3 not long after I got the truck - no heads up to anybody ! (rolleyes) lol
Well this 4DTECH sync 2 to 3 + NAV upgrade was just the solution to that one niggling issue I had namely "My Touch Sync 2 " installed in this truck.
So I ordered the Sync 3 Upgrade unit with added NAV and it arrived very promptly in 3 days. I watched Scott's install video twice - brewed a cup of my fav Joe and headed out to the truck.
I had the required # 7 torx, 7 mm nut driver, and 7mm socket ready to go.
Install for me was less than 20 mins ( 20 with a few glugs of coffee ;-)) ) and was a breeze.
Put it all back together and it booted up in about 50 seconds ( tip be patient first time takes a bit)
Looked great - was all set - then I noticed my rear cam wasn't activating - so it being the
weekend - and 4DTech being closed - I just decided what the heck let me email them and
we will troubleshoot Monday (Today is Sat)
BUT ---- here's where the great Customer Service kicked in.
Got an e-mail back right away from Tech Support - saying to please re-seat the the main plug
to the module - so out I go and basically open the panel up again ( very easy job) and un seat
the connector and slowly and evenly reconnect it - put everything back together and low and
behold backup camera issue resolved - seems I was a little too speedy at first - lol
Anyway point being - Customer Service & Tech Support is excellent.
The product is quite simply top quality, fast functionally & outstanding quality.
For me this represented a key decision point in deciding on whether or not to keep my
2015 lease when it ends. I'll be keeping it as it's one great truck that has now, thanks to this
great upgrade, been able to sustain a relative level of value to me personally with being able to add this new current Sync 3 tech with Carplay and Android with NAV.
Anybody out there in the same situation as me - all I can say it - just do it as it's very worthwhile
and a helluva a lot cheaper than a new lease or purchase when you factor in new lease or
sales costs and taxes.
My 2 cents fwiw - hope it helps people to decide. -
Sync 2 to sync 3 upgrade
Took me longer than 15 minutes, more like 1 hour 30 minutes. I followed the video on line.... much better than the enclosed direction. Everything works great....am extremely pleased!!!!

MY 2015 F150 IS NOW A 2017!!!!!
THIS WAS A SIMPLE INSTALL AND THE UNIT WORKS AWESOME. ITS LIKE I GOT A BRAND NEW TRUCK WITHOUT HAVING TO PAY FOR IT. EVERYTHING FIRED UP JUST LIKE I SHOULD HAVE. XMTRAFFIC, CAMERAS, AC CONTROLS. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

This made my new truck way better
Seamless install! Incredible customer service and the upgrade is AMAZING
The GPS is STELLAR !
It's everything promised and no disappointments at all! -
excellent product
My wife has a 2017 Escape with Sync 3 and I really liked it so of course I had to have one lol. I received this kit the next day. The instruction were clear and precise, I also watched the video which made the installation excellent. It only took me about an hour, maybe hour and a half. Works perfect.

Works as promised
Extremely easy upgrade. Hardest part was deciding on a place to install the GPS antenna. I don't know why I got one even though I picked the non-nav version. [4D Tech: It is required for 911 Assist to continue working] I ended up removing the center speaker and place it on top of a black plastic part under the dash. Everything is plug and play. You do need a torx bit (T8...I think) to remove the headunit bracket to reuse it on the new unit. Also, comes with a harness to install the new USB hub's power plug. After installing, everything works as expected. Hell, even android auto seems snappier than it was on my stock Honda Civic headunit. I've also got Waze beta app so I'm using Waze on android auto as my main nav. I love getting alert features back again. Pricey, but I'm satisfied and worth it.

Easy to install and so much better then sync touch/2
Really quick turn around / delivery. Very easy to install, all appears to be working well, only original function I have not seen is the engine / service report function, (when it dials out and emails you a report on vehicle). All other functionality is present. Bought the version with navigation. the car play navigation with iPhone is great but does not appear on screen behind wheel. the navigation version when using the navigation and not car play does appear on screen behind wheel. have 2015 F150 platinum with all feature and all other things works perfectly. controls are much better and much less glitchy compared to Sync2. high cost to upgrade but gives great features.

nice upgrade
Is what it is. Super expensive but you cant find it cheaper anywhere else. If you drive your truck every day and want to use android auto or apple car play its well worth the cost. 4D Tech is super professional and has great tech support. I would def recommend buying from them.
