  1. Ask them to show you where it's stated to be a "maintenance" item. In no manual I've read is this drain listed as something that should be checked. Drains on the underside of each door, yes, but not this drain. And if it "is" a maintenance item, why didn't they check it during the periodic maintenance visit?
  2. Can you switch to heat? If not, my thinking runs along the line of a failed control.
  3. I'll second that. That website is a mess, designed by a second-rate programmer. It exits only to sell you a new car or show you stuff that doesn't fit your car.
  4. Don't know how to turn it off, but you can disable it by unplugging the microphones.
  5. I'll hazard a guess as possibly tie rod ends.
  6. I have an 09 MKX with AWD. You're going to love it in the snow. Even though there are more mechanical components involved, and the more parts involved, the AWD isn't anything to be worried about. Just have the transmission and transfer case oil changed at 60k and it should be ok. It will take a small hit on milage, 2-3 mph, but buying a luxury car to begin with your not worrying about the cost of gas anyway. How are the tires? Figure about a grand for new tread for decent tires on an AWD. Nice car, love the white, looks really, really nice in the sun. Appears that it was well taken care of. Congrats again.
  7. What did you order vs. what did they actually send? Although you felt the substitution was not what you wanted, would you consider the substitution to be of equal value?
  8. Should be part of the home screen. Try calling Sync support team at 888-270-1055 weekdays.
  9. Standard on Titanium and Sport. On home screen, "settings" key on your home screen, touch "vehicle" and "ambient lighting".
  10. Local car wash, every week, ultimate is $18, takes 5 minutes looks great, and has all the good stuff, tire shine, wax, Rain X, drive away dry and shiny. Screw the hours of washing, buffing. Good enough.
  11. If it's listed on your window sticker, I'd be calling my sakes agent on Monday morning and asking where is it. Worst comes to worst, you can add it yourself. Vern talked about here in the firum, and the following posted pix on exactly how he did his http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/6122-diy-for-installing-homelink-in-se-sel-and-sport-edges/ I've done several, not hard at all. (You might get lucky and find one on Ebay from a wrecked car, at a much lower price).
  12. Goto https://owner.ford.com/tools/account/sign-in.html Create an account, put in your VIN and it will tell you which version of Sync your car has, and if any additional updates are available.
  13. Looks like an extra dot got added when I cut and pasted on my Android. The correct url is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&persist_app=1&v=Ot_CgAjyCFQ And the title is "Fixing A Car That Clacks When You Turn" by Scotty Kilmer. He makes it look easy.
  14. Could always pop on chrome covers. Look good and might be less expensive.
  15. Does it sound like this? (Scotty shows in this Youtube video just how easy they are to change). https://youtu.be/Ot_CgAjyCFQu
  16. 2009 MKX, I'll assume that later years are nearly the same. Measurements include all projections and assume a box-shaped structure, slid imto place. Width: 45", height:29", depth: 5ft. (In mine, the back seats do not fold completely flat). These are rough and a slightly larger box will fit.
  17. Did you by chance read this thread? http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/12517-ford-edge-center-console-plastic-piece-cover/ There are also cover kits available: http://www.carid.com/2014-ford-edge-dash-kits/
  18. Yea, stopping on ice in a MKX can be a real exciting moment. Couple of winter's ago, I thought I'd need a defibrillator to get me going afterwards. lol
  19. On my 09, I press anywhere on the map display, and get 5 soft buttons. Then press on "POI Icons on/off" to turn on the 3 POI buttons I have selected. (Gas stations is one of the three I usually have selected).

    Try one of these: http://m.yp.com/philadelphia-pa/non-ethanol-gas-stations
  21. Sounds like it's part od the chassis/suspension system. At a stop, the car stops with the nose dipping. Starting up, the nose lifts and the suspension shifts. I would begin by looking at the torsion bars, front struts, etc. Try bouncing the front end (while parked) to see if you can recreate the squeek. Could be as simple as a bushing getting hard and needing a little lubrication.
