If I remember correctly, the Edge with keyless start comes with the 65 battery. So I think you'll be fine with that size.

I am not aware of the mirror clips coming separately. You'll have to get the whole mirror. See this parts diagram which shows that there is no separate part for it. http://www.tascaparts.com/auto-parts/2013/ford/edge/limited-trim/3-5l-v6-gas-engine/body-cat/outside-mirrors-scat You'll probably be able to find a good used one on ebay. Make sure it looks like yours (2011 & some 2012 models have a different larger mirror) and make sure it has the same features as yours (heated, memory and/or dimming). Replacing it is a simple procedure.

Sport mode in Canadian 13/14 SEL AWD
omar302 replied to normcloutier's topic in All Wheel Drive (AWD)
Do you know what did the dealer do to get it to function? -
The part number is the same from 2007 to 2014, so the procedure should nearly be the same. I'd like to know if it requires removing the door panel & glass or it can just be removed directly. Also, does it require some sort of sealant when installing the new one. Guess what I am trying to say, is it easy enough to do it myself or should I take it to the dealer.

Diagnosing a faulty voltage regulator on a 2011 Ford Edge
omar302 replied to macbwt's topic in 2011 Edge & MKX
Mac, did you try to swap the batteries & repeat the test? Just to be on the safe side? Also, did you reset that battery monitor thing since the last time you disconnected the battery on the affected Edge? Just some thoughts..- 15 replies

The 2.7L was designed for duty in the heavier F-150 that can tow much more than its weight! The transmission/PTU in the Edge Sport has long been used with the more powerful 3.5L Ecoboost engine in the heavier Flex Ecoboost since 2010. I wouldn't worry about their durability in the Edge Sport!

Paddle Shifters in non-sport trims
omar302 replied to lakeguy77's topic in Interior, A.C., Heat, Interior Trim
I tried, they didn't want & couldn't research it more. Maybe you'll get better results. http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/14777-wiring-for-paddle-shifters-sport-non-sport/?fromsearch=1 -
As you said, it depends on the outside temperature reading. I don't know the outside tempreture values upon which the seats cool or heat. But searching online found this, for other Fords, though it might not be applicable to other models: From the 2011 Ford HD trucks:

Also, the PTU is covered by the powertrain warranty which is good for 5 years or 60k miles.

If you look at the 2011-2015 Owners manual of the MKX, it shows the difference in light pattern between Halogen & HID. In the 2015 Edge Owners Manual there is only 1 pattern shown and it is similar to the Halogen pattern in the MKX. For color & that bluish line, don't take my photos as a guide due to the cellphone camera I am using, the bluish line/cutoff is there. I have a 2011 MKX with factory HID.
-
On the topic of HID light pattern, it seems Ford is using a different projector on the MKX (maybe other Lincolns also) versus Ford vehicles. On Ford (seen it on the Explorer, Edge & Mustang), the HID pattern looks like a Halogens pattern only brighter, on the MKX it has a clear cutoff with the right side going up. The light on the MKX also shines considerably wider on the road. I recently rented a Nissan Altima with HID & it also had a similar pattern as the MKX. This is the pattern from my OEM HID lights (sorry for the low quality pictures):

Car does not recognise keys
omar302 replied to chris275's topic in Alarms, Keyless Entry, Locks & Remote Start
I know I am late to this, but OP did not mention trying the other key fob! Shouldn't replacement of the key fob battery be the 1st thing to try? -
2014 keypad & myford touch pin change
omar302 replied to nlitend1's topic in Alarms, Keyless Entry, Locks & Remote Start
The MFT screen should allow changing of the user defined code. From my experience, if you selected to erase the user defined code on the MFT screen, you won't be able to enter a new user defined code. I don't remember exactly how I was then able to get it back, but I think it was after a Master Reset that MFT allowed me to enter the code again. The same "bug" is also present on the 2015 Expedition with MFT (tried it with version V3.7 installed). -
Good luck. Keep us updated & how they fix it.

I think the base model didn't get the select shift.other models, SEL, Limited & Sport all have select shift & sport mode (2013+).

2013 Ford Edge SEL does not have sport mode
omar302 replied to chuckdonline's topic in 2013 Edge & MKX
Sorted out here I guess http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/10908-transmission-sport-mode-misnomer/?fromsearch=1 -
Compare the thickness to the old filter. It's the first time I read about someone complaining of its thickness. I know that installing the filter is a little bit difficult, make sure the tabs are in all the way before pressing the cover down. There should be force/pressure required when putting the clips back, otherwise how would it seal?

From my experience with frameless wipers on the Edge/MKX, they don't contour well to the windshield. Think of it as the windshield is curved too much for the wipers make full contact on the glass. Go back to regular wipers or those "hybrid" designs where the wiper looks like a frame less design but actually has a frame beneath the outer shell.

I don't think it's normal. Probably a PCM reprogramming is required. Just report it to your dealer.
-
I would lean towards #2 due to the lower mileage. If they'reb oth 2011, check the build dates, the newer the better as issues were being sorted out. Many TSBs are applicable to early build 2011s. That might help you take a decision if your still debating.
-
#1 is the Jeep "Grand Cherokee", not the "Cherokee". It has the ZF 8 speed train, RWD based, sized similar to the Edge. It can be optioned up to be much more luxurious than the Edge or sportier. In my opinion, unless you really need the extra off road capabilities, for similarly priced models, the Edge is the better vehicle.
-
Not me, neither did I here about it before. Probably an isolated issue.
