  1. Hi Rebecca, I am on 3.6.2 and it is still pretty laggy (I think more than the prior release, 3.6 or 3.5). Once I click a button, it really waits a second before making the move. How much RAM does this thing have, or is it a weak processor? Is there another update coming out and when? PS for the future, are you guys planning to implement a better software system, such as Android or Google Maps, with tablet-like touch sensitivity rather than this painful resistive touchscreen currently?
  2. You mean a revamped 2014 model? Currently I haven't seen any concepts or anything yet as well. By this time the 2013 Edge was available last year, but no word at all for 2014. I think they'll go with the same exact configuration unless it will be a late release.
  3. No problem! Calibre, it must be a glitch - I don't use voice commands though (I suppose you use them) because they are too slow for me..I just do everything with the touch. And the new 3.5.1 update in fact makes the system slower if anyone else hasn't noticed..still waiting on a solid performance improvement. The hardware seems capable - the software isn't there yet
  4. Anyone notice more lag and slowness with the 3.51 update?
  5. This is the official thread for the 2013 Edge/MKX owners. Feel free to share pictures of your Edge/MKX, and/or post anything for discussion.
  6. So is 3.2 the latest version, with the updated 3D mapping? If I go to the dealer, will it be a free install? I got a 2013 Limited. Secondly, what internet capabilities/apps can be downloaded, I'm sure I saw that somewhere on my Sync system.
  7. You should see this thread in the normal Edge forum: http://www.fordedgeforum.com/index.php?/topic/10463-crappy-gas-milage-black-tailpipes/ Here, a lot of the people have black tailpipes/soot and get pretty bad gas mileage. Ford is a joke when coming to their mileage, like what the hell are they thinking. I bought a $50K car which boasted fuel economy, yet I'm getting only a little bit better than my BMW 7 Series 4.4L V8.
  8. Bought my Edge Limited Ecoboost in Canada, in the beginning of June - 1.5 months, and 4100 kms later, I am still averaging 18-19.5 mpg (12-13l/100km). Took a long 500km trip with mostly highway driving, and averaged around 25mpg there. I also get the black tailpipes. I don't know, but it is nowhere near what I should be expecting. I am expecting 25mpg mixed driving, and perhaps 30 on the highway. This is conservative and lower than the stated mileage, so hopefully after some more breaking in and first service it starts proving itself.
  9. I thought I read them as two different methods in the manual? The reason I didn't do the garage door remote method is because the battery actually died in it, so I decided to do the alternative method as stated in the manual. However, you are telling me both steps are needed, so I will replace the battery on it and try with that this time.
  10. Hi I tried programming the Garage door opener (Homelink) with my Garage door but was unsuccessful. I pressed the Smart button on the Garage control panel, then within 30 seconds held the programmable button in the Edge for 2 seconds, twice, and even three times like the manual stated. No luck. Am I doing anything wrong? I tried with both ignition on, and off.
  11. Hi, I connected the BlackBerry 9900 to Sync for the first time via bluetooth and everything, but it has so many problems. As soon as I connect it, there is an 'Incoming Call' that keeps coming, even after I press decline, it keeps coming back (which prevents me from doing anything). Second, if I put on 'Do not Disturb' to get rid of the call, I cannot DIAL any number. As soon as I start dialing, all the numbers vanish. Third, if I call someone directly from my phonebook, it won't dial and just disconnect. Pretty huge issues, nothing works, I think there are some connection problems though!!
  12. I'm a week in with my new 13 Ecoboost and i'm only getting 17 MPG..i should be seeing 26.. This is low for even the break in period.
  13. Haha Summer has just begun! (Or has yet to). I think getting car washes in the winter will suffice. It is what I usually do. What do you mean by indoor car washing, are you referring to the garage? Because I've heard of people doing that, never really found out how they executed it though..
  14. Oh, cool. How much are the Daytime BrightLites compared to just the Philips lights? And are there any other manufacturers that sell the whole unit with bright LEDs? I'm just saying that because 200$ for an LED is quite a lot! Haha.
