    The tunes are being revised gradually. It is unknown what the new trans and ptu can handle. The ST also has a different engine management system so has to be tuned different. If you compare the 2 dyno charts though the ST is down in hp but puts out more torque with the current tune over the sport, so it may never see the gains the sport gained with a tune it'll be amazing if it does though with nothing blowing up and if they can relax the torque management in 1st and 2nd.

     

     

    How do you know the tunes are being revised? We have not heard anything from Livernois? They seem to have no updates on the ST tune.

    It's going very well, we're up to 22 updates and every time Torrie sends me a new one I can feel the difference from the last. I'm still using the stock IC, peak boost I've seen is 18.3, can't remember what stock was.

    Do you have any mods or is your car stock?

    bought I Tuner for Unleashed Tuning, Been doing some data logs with Torrie (the owner), for the last couple of weeks and it's like a night and day difference. Super impressed with the results and we're not finished yet. If you're on the fence about doing it trust me, it's well worth it...

    Does he also tune the transmission shifts? I have the Livernois tune and I would not call it a night and day difference.

  4. The people who will be able to answer the transmission question is at the ST SUV experience. Unfortunately, the dealer/models at some of the booths at car shows don't much other than what they're told. They are there to sell cars and are not going to answer any negative questions about the car. Anyone going or has gone the ST SUV experience?

    Did you listen to the opening words? followed by videos of exotics...
     

    thats funny cause I'm pretty sure I said if I could have the Q5 interior and the Edge exterior it would be my perfect SUV...
     

    because all the performance parts that fit the Sport, also fit the ST, kinda hard to truly hate a vehicle that is pretty much the same as the one you own. I don't hate the ST either, then I'd have to hate my own Sport. I'm just hoping you ST guys get some real performance parts made but they all seem more concerned with getting their headlights to move.

    Please stop with the bullshit explanations. Everyone one your post in the  ST forum you shit on the ST. Like I said before we get it you don't like the car, and I wish you would stop posting here. Something is wrong with you, and I wish the moderator would do something about it. You should go hang out here https://www.audiworld.com/forums/q5-sq5-mkii-discussion-218/.

    He's always going to hate the ST. He's made up his mind and nothing we say will change that. Why he bothers with this section is beyond me, other than to repeat ST is terrible and "Audi better other than styling."

    I don't know why he keeps posting here as he hates, the vehicle does not have one and has nothing positive to contribute to the ST forum. He's obsessed with hating on it, and needs to take his complaints to Ford.

    yeah, you will be waiting a long time. Best bet is to start sourcing fabricators now. Due to design, 3in off the turbo is going to be a crazy mod, will require lots of fab, can go smaller and then out to 3in. an immediate bend at the turbo is the problem. A few Edges are running upgraded turbos now. EcoPower Parts just came out with all hard piping. No intake on market, legit intake will probably never happen on this chassis.

    I agree. Ford includes power folding mirrors on the lincolns. If they gave every feature in both Ford and Lincoln it wouldn’t make sense. I would love to have them on mine but I definitely understand why it doesn’t have them. 

    Ford included power folding mirrors on the European Edges, so I don't see why they could not add it to the US model. Power folding mirrors come standard on some SUVs costing less than Edge.

    Probably will see a bit of doubt and hate initially. I am trying to convince my father to look at one (Non ST due to price) but i also don't think he will like the floating display. I hope it turns out to be a beast and I'm very happy to see its on a RWD platform again finally. I'm worried about the claim to be fastest under 60K though as with just 400hp at that weight it might be a claim with a ton of small print. 

    I know, and I find it funny, and it happens when a new model comes out. We'll see about the fastest claim once the reviews start coming it, and it does weight 200lbs less than the outgoing model. It's too big for me, but it's not bad, and I don't hate it.

    The home screen button seems to be only on cars made in the later batches. That along with the simulated engine noise was changed later on. 

    I have an early build 9-5-2018 and the heated steering wheel is on the home screen. I also have piped in engine sound in sport mode.

    Update 12/14/2018: It is now Day 38. I just received an email from the dealer that the repairs are materially complete. They stated that the repairs have been completed with "no leaks, no issues", but want to let the vehicle sit and re-test drive the Edge early next week.

     

    I anticipate a Tuesday, 12/18 return of the vehicle, which will total 42 days.

     

    I have chosen to seek legal counsel over going with any arbitration method (at this point anyway - including going through Ford arbitration as was suggested by some forum members). We were advised by an acquaintance of my wife (who is an attorney but cannot take our case his firm represents dealers in the area) that it was "highly advisable" in New York State to seek legal representation on lemon law cases. We are having serious issues with finding someone locally who will even entertain a "lemon law" case, as the multiple recommendations we received regarding attorneys all have said "I pass". It would seem that in our region of the state that lemon law cases are rare; highly specialized; and not worth the time of an attorney in terms of return on their time (and therefore $$$). I did manage to find one attorney locally who seems very lukewarm with our situation and does not seem to want to advocate for us. So, the next hurdle (which I did not anticipate) is to find representation from someone who actually will represent us in a lemon law case.

     

    What a nightmare this has been! Anybody want to buy/trade an almost new 2019 Ford Edge ST that was used for 9 total days and has 520 miles on the odometer? ?

     

    You want to lemon law it because they had it over 30 days and you don't want it anymore? Did you buy it or lease it?

    2 gears?

    Im pretty sure this is an RS topic

    If you think it's just two gears, then I don't know what to tell you. Back to the RS and what is going to set you off bitching, moaning and crying when it's released, and will you be getting one?

    Sure, break the 12s and we can talk. I assume a stock RS won't have any issues since the ST was just a little slower than the Sport. 

    Vin Diesel, 
    Not everyone cares about racing and stripping their cars to race them.  I could care less what you think of the ST, the bottom line it's a better car than the Sport, and it's only $1300 more, and you get so much more for the money.

  14. I hope Ford build the RS and can't wait to have one in my garage.? Some of you are setting yourselves to be disappointed already.  I'm going to love hearing all the bitching and moaning of what an RS should be from a bunch of unhappy Sport owners.?
