something is looking a little hinky about this "cold air intake" on eBay

'rumor' I heard is that it might be available for self download and install on August 8th at SyncMyRide.com.. stay tuned

true enough.. it's the delivery of the message more than the content

d'ohh.. akirby with a nice zinger.... but he could have been talking about his right side. FWIW.. I also had a few near misses when I first got the car and realized there was a definite blind spot in the rearview & side view mirrors.

pretty cool actually. I like 'integrated' versus those glue on style. this is certainly something you could swap to I am sure. its just glass (and an electrical harness clip)

can you report any noticeable difference having done the "TSB for Rolling in Drive"? which TSB # was that BTW? also, any photos of the bug shield installed?

yeah.. I keep ALL numbers like that for cycling/running (miles, avg speed, time)... but not driving. Now, it is to late for me to start as I would have wanted to do that from day one and then it just becomes one more piece of data I get addicted to keeping I wonder.. it might be curious to compare your written records to the cars computer now and then just to see, out of curiosity, how well they do/do not line up. I also use & reset the Trip Odometer, but B, for every fill up. But have never reset the others. I stopped just adding $5, $10, $8 in my early 20's, I also always fill up full. Interesting thing.. I would be curious what others report, when I fill up mine ALWAYS reports "343 Miles Until Empty"... always. When I first got the car a fill up would read 345, but since then and for months it always reads 343. UPDATE: on just my list fill it jumped to 374 miles until empty - this is the closest I have taken it to empty since owning, just claimed 20 miles left until empty, and nw it reports a higher amount of miles available per this tank of gas. FYI, I have disconnected the battery on the Edge numerous times (up to about 15 minutes or so) for various installs of items as seen here, and the Info Center (and Sync) have always retained their data.

Finally decided to pipe in on this thread So, at 6 months into car - which is about 2800k for me (I know, I do not drive much - I ride a bike more per year, no joke) my computer repors what I see as pretty crummy 17.2 miles avg with 27 mph avg. I KNOW I drive pretty much 'city'/suburb miles AND I am very early into car ownership and this is very low miles, so I know not to expect to much right now. But I admit I did expect better than that. Now, a question I have not seen raised in this thread is... how many of you: a. reset the mileage computer when you bought the car but never since b. never reset the mileage computer ever. not when you bought and not since c. reset it after each fill or a series of fills or routinely I fall into B. I never did (nor have) reset my computer and kind of wish I had at the start as it has calculations that take into consideration misc stop start driving from factory to train, train to holding tank, holding tank to truck, misc truck to dealer, dealer to me.. probably not major difference, but I wish I would have master reset it all to start fresh from my personal driving ownership right when I drove off the lot. Anyone have thoughts on resetting your computer to start a fresh set of calculations? and ps ... yeah, Mooseman and his thread spamming is wearing thin on me also

seems like a logical troubleshooting idea.. I am going to try that for my #2 seat and see what happens.

I am not a big fan of this type of stuff, but I will admit, this does not look half bad really. makes it look a little more.. "rich" well done

thanks.. I will give them a peak and see what I can afford.. but at least it seems to be great option and a place to start wow.. 8 different options for us at a range of $160 to a whopping $410 ... so yeah, there are some high end covers there. the tailored fit is a must, but I will likely fall somewhere in the middle as I can't justify a $410 cover they have a selector tool to help you whittle down the choices for what will best suit your individual needs. funny thing is, it always only recommends "superweave" - the top-of-the-line model

my easy entry feature works fine, but my seat #2 memory button does not work anymore. use to, stopped about a month ago. it's on my list to get fixed.

confirmed same here.. just did it. upon restart, I am back to it being <on> and have to do the reset button to take it to <off> if I go into reverse and my bike rack sets it off. so essentially, as I run a bike rack pretty regularly as well, I have to do the quick reset trick every single time I turn on the car and back out.

yeah, pay for something that might get fixed and might not? so, if I pay, and it does not fix my USB issue, I get the money back? Plus, this is not an enhancement, something one might pay for, it is an update to fix some issues we are having, why pay for that? I suspect the potential charge is to cover the time of the tech and use of the repair bay, but I could download this.. at my home... and install it faster, better, quicker, cheaper - and keep my car off the road wasting gas to get to a dealer for something so simple - if they just make it free to download at SMR website. maybe the failure of that "version checker" download to work properly for nearly everyone who tried it showed them a serious flaw in their system to allow us user self updates so they knew they had to throw it at the dealer level so that only serious willing-to-pay people got the update versus people just doing it on a whim and needing support after it failed to download and work?? anyway.. I have a free first oil change coming up and I am going to try to piggie-back the update on that since it will be there anyway and maybe try to skate by free

cool... what I expected, just wanted to be sure before I try to pry it open

agreed...

I will watch this thread with much interest

guess that splains it... never even had a chance to use the rear wiper (I keep my car soooo clean).. I have to admit I did not even know there was a rear wiper fluid nozzle.

add this one to the list

Anyone tried one they like that specifically fits the Edge? Any recommendations? Any thoughts on what makes one good or bad (material for example)?

I have been meaning to ask this for some time.. but what is that thing in the 3rd brake light? Some kind of sensor, or a place holder/plug? but for what?

FWIW... I live in SoCal and have no complaints.. but I do live on the coast I admit. That being said, part of the benefit of where I live is that you do not really need heat or AC year around.. BUT the times I have cranked the AC, set temp at 60 on Auto, I have not been able to report an issue.

can you expand on this a bit.. did you literally just start to pull the silver center dash piece out at the bottom - right above the cubby - and it popped free like a door panel? any issues with scaring the silver paint on that center console piece when using a flat head? did it pop fit right back in like a door panel?

I love mine.. but check the paint real well as the paint job is my biggest complaint as it is a bit on the low quality side (pits, debris, thin paint, primer with no paint, etc). Check the chrome wheels, assuming you are getting the chrome clads, and make sure they are in good shape and not peeling as others have noted. these are just 2 things I can think of you read about. also, might best read some of the threads about the "issues people have had" and take note and check those as well just to be safe. there are a low of great things about the Edge and I love mine, and a lot of cool things you can add/do to it you will see here, but in looking at buying, I think you have to seek out those negatives and see if they are acceptable and cool with you IF you find them on this used car.
