What changes would you like to see for the 2018 Edge?
enigma-2 replied to Chipster's topic in 2017-2018 Edge & MKX
In keeping with what changes for 2017, perhaps on the MKX, how about: Bridgestone Airless Tires? Cars that park in the garage by themselves? IR heads up Fwd looking display to display the road in inclimate weather? More knobs, less menus? Sunvisor extensions (for when the sun is low in the sky). Drains on EVERYTHING that contains fluids, transmissions, transfer boxes, brakes, power steering, etc. And for the drop dead, absolute best sales gimmick ever; exterior paint that changes color per users preference. (As an upgrade option of course). Some days I prefer white, some days I feel like blue, or black or green or gray or .... How about a cylindrical pocket in the front door interior cover to store an umbrella. (Branded merchandise of course). HOW ABOUT A "GOOD" MAP SOFTWARE, not the total crap you have been using. -

Nice option for the mkx/edge would be a heads up ir display (for fog and winter weather). -
Sync 3 2016 upgrade to CarPlay
enigma-2 replied to tpm419419's topic in Audio, Backup, Navigation & SYNC
"Note: Apple CarPlay is available on 2017 model year Ford vehicles with compatible SYNC 3. Owners of 2016 model year Ford vehicles with SYNC 3 are required to perform a software upgrade and purchase a hardware upgrade to use Apple CarPlay. Please check back on the Ford Owner site this summer for more information about these upgrades." Added note, I took this off the Ford website. . -
So, I guess that you would find fender skirts cheesy too. lol

According to Tirerack.Com your wheel is 17"x7.5" wide with a 5x114 bolt pattern.

Believe you can turn it off in the information display. Probably disables the button switch as well, but FOB and dash switch will still work. -
Latch is adjustable. Show it to your dealer.

With all the bogus clone products showing up on Ebay, wouldn't surprise me that fake SD cards are being sold.

Tail light Condensation
enigma-2 replied to d0minicano's topic in Glass, Lenses, Lighting, Mirrors, Sunroof (BAMR), Wipers
Not taking sides, but "external impact" could be more than another car bumping into yours. If could be a kid with a baseball bat or stone. It could be a shopping cart in a grocery parking lot (had a friend have this happen to him, wind blew a cart across lot and cracked his taillight, had store manager review on outside camera and was able to claim on insurance). What model & year do you own? Reason I ask is, 07-10 goes for $45 (free shipping) & 11-14 for $120 (free shipping) on Ebay. May be easier to bite the bullet and replace yourself. Item # 371660025470 for 07-10 Item # 161104912612 for 11-14 May not be exactly what you need, but a quick search should turn one up. Hope your able to find a cheap replacment. -
Nice! Love white cars with jussssst the right amount of chrome.

Could buy an OEM off Ebay. Seen several around the $400-500 range.

Does your radiator fans come on when switch on the ac? May not be getting sufficient airflow through the condenser if the fans aren't working at idle but get airflow when moving (esp above 30 mph). Other thoughts are low refrigerant. Pressure builds with engine speed. (Do you get cold air at idle if you goose the engine, say 3000 rpm)? Getting any codes? If you don't have a code reader, usually can get you codes read at Auto Zone or simular place.

Cat back kits for AWD: Old Topic - New Thread
enigma-2 replied to MikeKiloXrayOhNiner's topic in Mods & Tech
Why screw with perfection? I like quiet, sorry :-) -
Can't say, never read where anyone has ever tried it. My initial guess is there's a difference, but I really don't know for certain. Too expensive to expirment with. (Close to $400 ea.) When you look up 2012, 13, 14 etc. mirrors, none list 09 as being comparable. Even the 08 isn't shown as compatible with the 09. Slap on a chrome cover, make it look spiffy.

I added blind spot mirrors to my 09 MKX. (They actually came out with it in late 09 model). It's simple, just change the glass (pops right out). Heres a link the one for the passenger's side http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-OEM-LH-REAR-VIEW-MIRROR-GLASS-2009-2011-FORD-EDGE-2009-2010-LINCOLN-MKX-/281559373222?fits=Year%3A2009%7CMake%3ALincoln%7CModel%3AMKX&hash=item418e3f15a6%3Ag%3A-mwAAOSweW5VTtXM&_trkparms=pageci%253A932a95da-38e0-11e6-9886-74dbd180eedc%257Cparentrq%253A7ad770d71550a6a4a6adc597fffc6c58%257Ciid%253A19 Do a search on Ebay for "2009 lincoln mkx mirror". Be certain to read the specs carefully for the drivers side. I got glass for puddle lamps, heated, auto memory adjust and auto tint. I paid the just over a hundred for the drivers. To pop out the old glass, push the inside of the mirror in with your fingers. If you look behind the glass through gap and you will see a plastic piece on the back of the glass snaps onto another plastic piece on the motor. Put a large flat head screwdriver in between and unsnap the clips. The new glass just snaps back on, push until you hear a pop.

Intelligent Access Theory

Three days to change a brake booster? Three hours to change mine, and that included a car wash as well.
