your edge should be able to run android auto off of an android phone plugged into the USB port. I'm not familiar with Apple Car Play but i would guess it's similar. Google maps is infinitely better than the built-in navigation. Personally i would forget the Sync Navigation and go with a phone if possible.

welcome. please post some pics. that's par for the course around these parts. ?

i had a 2016 with stock headlamps. the headlight performance was so bad that i traded it in for a 2020 ST with LED headlamps. Those are great. I live in a very small town and the drive on the dark highway from the main city (Victoria, BC) at night was harrowing. i first tried better bulbs but there was barely any noticeable difference. then i put in the slightly more powerful bulbs that you have to hack to get them to fit. it was many years ago so i don't remember the details so you'll have to search this forum. there are a few threads about lightbulb hacks. i was thinking about putting in HID or LED bulbs but didn't want to go through the installation hassle and possibility of poor performance so i just got rid of the car.

thanks for the info MacT. i tried putting a quite narrow polyethylene tube down the dipstick tube but it wouldn't go. do you happen to know exactly how narrow of a tube i have to use?

2020 Edge ST (2.7 EcoBoost, just under 10,000 km) i noticed a good amount of smoke from the exhaust when i stomp on the go pedal. it doesn't happen at idle or giving it gas in park/neutral. I connect my OBD reader and it gave no codes. I then thought I would check for excessive oil consumption but found the level to be higher than i would expect on the dipstick. the oil has about 4,000 km on it and is still quite clean so it's hard for me to tell exactly what the level is. I can tell that it's above the small hole that's above the cross-hatch pattern on the dipstick. I think too much oil can cause smoke and can also damage the engine, no? doesn't it score the cylinders or something like that? i'm wondering if i have done any damage already. it only smokes under heavy throttle so would the damage only occur then? What should i do? the dealer that did the last service is closed now, as in not there anymore. the same owner has two other dealers so i can go there but this is going to be a hassle since surely they will say that i must have added the oil myself. is there any way to remove just a bit of oil? or do i need to do another oil change? i'd be grateful for any suggestions you have and information regarding the severity of this problem.

thanks

The the 2019 and onward ST still has an eco-boost V6 2.7. the huge screen began in 2021.

@Haz where did you get the workshop manual pages? i would love to have the whole set.

ok, funny but now i'm going to be getting ads for this stuff for the next two months. that's how amazon works.

no, you're not the only one. i was very surprised at this as well. drilling holes in gas tanks to steal gas has been in the news here as of late (british columbia). that and stealing catalytic converters. it doesn't seem to end.

and they'll install it for only $10! LOL!

that post was from almost a year ago and the person only posted that one topic and nothing since. hasn't even been on since: Topic Count:1 Post Count:1 Joined:08/26/2019 Status:Offline Last Activity:April 20, 2021

how much longer is your lease? i'm thinking that i would probably just get some 3M body molding two-sided foam tape and stick that thing back on. maybe put some silicone or something to prevent water ingress. or possibly that gooey black glue for body panels. there are loads of incredible adhesives for autobody work and that would eliminate the need to deal with the headliner.

same here. i had a 2016 Ti and now a 2020 ST and the cover seems to be the same one on both. neither of them attach in any way to the seats. it's a spring loaded roll in a sort of box that is held in place just behind the rear seats by spring loaded tabs into holes under the farthest rear windows. there is a rigid flap that closes the gab between the roll and the seat back.

have you looked at the left display set to show power distribution to the wheels while this is happening? i've looked at this many times in non-slippery situations and seen the power being sent to the rear wheels. i would imagine you can see the same.

it isn't hard or expensive to have the tire unmounted and the sensor looked at. if i were sure that's where the noise is coming from, that's the first thing i would do. i wouldn't just leave it.

have you checked the lugnuts on all of your wheels?

are you sure that you're in the right forum, "Mopar" bob? ?? welcome! tell us more about your ride. pics are always nice as well.

okay, a bunch of questions to help narrow down your problem. i assume your edge is gasoline since you're talking about 95 (which is is about 91 n. american octane). did you import it? how many miles/km on the car? how's the oil consumption? where do you live? what's the altitude and temperature? how are you calculating mpg since in europe they use liters and kilometers? just wondering if your calculations could be off. i use 10.4liters/100km on my 2020 ST in british columbia, canada and i'm at sea level. tell us about your driving habits. if you're starting a cold engine and then only driving a few km each time, then you'll be getting low mileage since the engine is cold most of the time. is your city driving completely stop and go? the more you can tell us, the more we can help find the problem.

it's great that people have opinions that they share here. what isn't great is denigrating other people's opinions because they're not the same as yours. in principle, the start/stop feature is honorable; reduce emissions. but where it is actually working against that goal is in my scenario. i've got stop signs every few blocks until i reach a main road. so this "feature" stops and, more crucially, starts a cold engine every few blocks. it's cold here in the winter so i'm not crazy about starting a cold engine a half-dozen times simply because i come to a complete stop at a stop sign for literally half-a-second. i installed the eliminator because of this. if i come to a stop that might be a while then i simply press the button which disables it and the engine shuts down as designed. my guess is that my engine pollutes a lot less remaining on than getting shut down for a total of 2 or 3 seconds when it's cold.

are you saying that you replaced the whole unit or did you just replace the bulbs? did you exchange like for like?

my first thoughts when reading your OP was mounts, both engine and transmission. that's what happens when they go. feels like a bump. i've had it in many cars. replacing them is the first thing i would do.

wow, that would explain why they can't get it!! but can't they at least tell the customer that instead of making them wait? @omar302 you are always one of the best sources of information on this board. you deserve a raise! ?

excellent. i lived in BCN for a few years, right downtown in the Eixample. i love the Costa Brava, especially the area around Calella. Are the Edges in Europe All Wheel Drive or Front Wheel Drive or can you get either? I posted some pics of an Edge in a BCN dealer years ago: there were quite a few little details that are nicer than on the edges here. for example, on the floor by the back hatch, you have stainless steel where as here it's just cheap plastic. looks really nice in stainless.

ok, got it. i misunderstood. i'm curious to know if ford dealers are getting these parts for their own car repairs and just playing games with you because it's a third party warranty at an independent garage. would your warranty pay for the repairs at the ford dealer? just thinking out loud here. i would be really really mad if i were without my car for 3+ months now.
