  1. Hi everyone... I have noticed that both my side mirrors do not stay adjusted... I adjust them, and a few hours later i almost see the pavement. At first, i thought i was touching them or something..but no. They don't stay. Anybody notice this issue? Is there a tension adjustment inside there? S

    Snow

    Hi.. No, not a problem.. The dealer wanted 525$ per wheel if i remember correctly... I got them here from this ebay seller http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280580452609&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT#ht_500wt_922 But had to pay alot for shipping...Less if you are closer to him i guess..anyway, they arrived mint in box. Brand new... So Wheels: 750$ Nokian Hakkas: 1200$ Sensors ( original Ford valve type): 220$ No trouble with the sensors..the rubber man just programmed them..perfect! I think this is an awesome kit..we had tons of freezing rain here yesterday...i could not believe how this thing performed. Cheers S

    Snow

    Hi.. I added 2011 SEL 18 inch aluminium wheels on the Sport with Nokian Hakkapeliitta R's ...Had a blast last week..never driven anything that good in the snow. I did not bother with the 22s..first, I'm in love with the wheels and want to keep them as clean as possible, second you get a lot more rubber choice in 17 & 18. I would say the only advantage to the 18s is the look..you get less of a shock when you take off the 22s. So..the 22s are in hibernation, and i have nice safe fun in the snow with no worries and a very nice look. The 2011 SEL 18s are very nice imho. Cheers! S

  7. Bought RainX blades..26 & 20...just had snow and ice today..very happy with them.
  8. Ouff ..sorry for that. And what did the dealer tell you that back order part would be? A new complete unit?
  9. Ok...here we go. Super happy owner - Sport 2011- I am 5 weeks into this with 2200 miles and never had any problems ..like in zero. Yesteday afternoon, i was cruising along on the highway and tried to make a call ..like the 100's i did so far with this. The call was not going throught and i noticed that the right screen was flickering,where you see the name and phone# of your call. It looked like it was trying very very hard to do something. So..i waited..about 10 minutes and let it do his thing..but the thing was in a loop of somekind and i had to make this call. I cut the call with the steering button, go to the main screen and shutoff BT. I take my iphone 4.2 and try to dial my contact ...dead the iphone. Tried a few times..and a few contacts. Nope..dead. So at this point, i'm kinda happy...i figure thats why MFT was trying so hard..no cell network. ....not. I shut down the iphone, start up everything again...and try the call. Same issue with MFT, flickering data on the right screen. So, i cut the call and punch the call right into the handheld phone. The call goes trought...but everything is now on the car's screen..everything but the call audio. So it's like everything was now working..but had to use it handheld. The phone speaker also would not engage..? On the ear only call. Then..a half hour later..on the same drive..all hell breaks loose. There is a message on screen that the SD card is not compatible and it cannot recognize it!! Open armrest..eject card...insert card ..all is back to normal with navi. About 10 minutes later..all the info on the screen is there. Iphone, navigation, usb ipod, climate Now, i was looking at it an this is what happened. All in sequence.. Iphone - disconnected- no phone Navi- no navi, no card Usb - no device At this point...i am happy. The missing one is an important one..climate.. So i figure...i have heat at least. Boom...climate off and screen shutdown. I did not do ANYTHING different than what i do everyday I did not UPDATE anything (phone, ipod, sync,mft..) I have not UNPLUGGED anything since day one (ipod,sd nav card..or unpaired my phone) The only thing that was done to the car was a TPMS sensor programming for my new winter Hakkas .. Not by Ford, by the tire man. So, this is the story people I am in love with this car, i will try to have it updated...just like everyone. And i am going to love it even more if it's a little faster and stable. That's all i ask from it...to be constant with the features in now has..no more, no less. Phone,navi,music,climate, and voice commands. I was one of the few ones here that had reported a 'perfect' version. Not anymore.. Cheers!
  10. I think you can change how the system interacts with you.. low to high interaction. Low..I think the system says almost nothing.. I think I read that in the manual yesterday....but do not have it with me now.. Anyway, play with it.. S
  11. Hi Sport 2011 ..wonderful product. Never had this much fun in a car (...and have had a few nice ones) Iphone 4 paired since day one ( ..into my 4th week now) never lost a call, always works perfect. Around 400 contacts.. Ipod in usb with around 300 albums... Again, perfect! Tonite..wanted to pick up pizza on my way and call ahead to have ready for pickup. Got to it by voice in a flash. Navigation Restaurants Dominos pizza... Map and phone popped up ..and i just hit dial. Super stuff Just really love it Cheers S Oh,,by the ways..this thing growls when you shift it up to 5k..nice sound and alot of power. Paddle shifters are really nice, i would not do without them.
  12. The good news is that i tell you it works! I use an iphone4 with no trouble. I wonder how i did before. When i picked it up 3 weeks ago... I paired it on the spot and it synced all my iphone contacts at lightning speed.. I think i have 400 or so in there. Has worked flawless since. Phone-Call Joe Blow Cell or Office? Office Calling Joe Blow Office Great..never missed one of my inquieries yet Cheers & good luck to all of us ( with what i read, i always expect it to crash...but so far so good) S
  13. You will return it for nothing...I can tell you this is a great car. Just wait and see..this thing is updatable.So it will be updated at some point in time. What I don't understand..is that I have had zero trouble so far. Why some work and some don't just does not fit. I mean, they all come from the same place..and not 3 years apart. But mine works as advertised..all of it. It's just great. Cheers
