  1. For those wondering if signal level decreased on not, you can go into the MFT diagnostic screen (think it was holding eject + right seek) and there is a radio signal screen that displays signal strength in digits.
  2. I would like to see bigger brakes & the 3.5 Ecoboost!
  3. You can get 2011 Mirrors, they are bigger but you lose the led turn signals (if yours has them).
  4. The 2014 Edge just showed up on Media.Ford.com, it's a carryover. http://media.ford.com/press_kits_detail.cfm?presskit_id=2186&item_id=5853&press_section_id=2870 http://media.ford.com/images/10031/2014_Edge.pdf
  5. It happens. First try to unpair "Sync" from your phone and delete your phone from the MFT and try to pair your phone again. If you still face the same problem, you should then try to master reset your MFT and yhen pair the phone again.
  6. Check this thread: http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/10908-transmission-sport-mode-misnomer/
  7. 2013 Edges added the possibility to manualy shift (temporarily) without shifting to 'S' by pressing the + or - buttons. Are you sure you didnt press them?
  8. Truy looking at the filter with fan on, is it being sucked in? Also remove the filter and make sure nothing fell inside the filter opening.
  9. The 2011+ Edge uses a projector with a moving sheild to create the low/hi beams. So its only a single bulb with a single filament.
  10. When ordering a new car, you should set up your priorities as you see fit. Since HID is important to you, you should have ordered it. Retrofitting HID is not good, blinding to other drivers and illegal in many places. For a proper HID upgrade, you should get the complete headlights of a factory HID Edge setup, which would cost a lot and makes the 301a package's cost a bargain. Furthermore, since you just "ordered" the car, many dealers can still accommodate changing the order before receiving the vehicle.
  11. Each projector has a different lighting pattern. From the owner's manual:
  12. Some 2011 models (maybe some 2012 too?) has early build software that made necessary for them to update (the Performance upgrade "Version 3.0.2") through a Dealer only.
  13. To confirm what Dingo said, if you the signal on, the signal noise will go away while the seatbelt chime is on.
  14. I know the MKX has it on the front windows only plus the vista roof. You just unlock using the fob and keep holding until they start rolling down. The feature is called "global open" by Ford. There is also a setting in the left cluster toenable or disable it.
  15. Normal. Its even mentioned in the Owners Guide under "Power Windows": Though to be honest, it is really bad compared to my previous cars. Sometimes it even kind of whistles.
  16. The Ford Headrest DVD's are quite expensive. How old is your daghter? My 2 & 6 year olds usualy are happy playing their tablets in the car. They can watch movies & even play games. And the tablets are much cheaper.
  17. Manufacturer recommends 35 PSI. I believe the TPMS comes on at around 28 PSI. If your driving high speeds, it is better to go for 35 PSI. If your driving in the city, with bad roads like where I live, I would suggest 30 PSI & the TPMS will not come on.
  18. Since the 3.02 update, I hated the fact that the default Lincoln star wallpaper was not centered. Finally I was able to get hold of that image & was able to modify it to center the Lincoln Star. Also, I found one image that I liked in a Focus forum, so I just modified it to center it in the updated MFT/MLT screens & added a Ford/Lincoln Logo. I have added a .zip file containing all images because the pictures are changed when attached to the post. MLT - MFT.zip
  19. ^^ Simply buy it with the 20" wheels & then put them up for swap. There are many who are willing to exchange their 18" wheels for the 20" wheels.
  20. It states in the manual that the oil life meter can reach up to 16000 km or one year. The manual recommends following the oil life meter. It seems the sticker you are refering to is just the dealer's way to get to come more often! By the way, even in extreme heat like in the Arabian Gulf, GCC, Ford recommends a 8000 km or 6 month interval (whichever earlier), basically a 50% oil life meter.
  21. Dingo, few question if its not too much; Is there any difference in wind noise due to the smaller side view mirrors? Can you confirm, the high beam turn on function on the '13 is by pushing the turn signal stalk "away" (towards front of vehicle) where as in the '11 (like my MKX) is by pulling the stalk towards you past the detent? (both will have the "flash to pass" by pulling).
  22. Your vehicle comes with an Integrated Keyhead Transmitters (IKT), basically the key & FOB are a single unit. If you want Remote start+ Alarm, I would suggest any of the following two routes: First option: Install the Remote Start System - 100 Series Plug-N-Play, which would replace your "IKT" with another one that includes a start button. And install the Ford Vehicle Security System - Alarm which would Arm/Disarm using the same "IKT" that unlocks/locks your doors. Thisoption, if possible, would give you the best "Factory look/function". Second option: Install the same Remote Start Kit Series 200 you mentioned, but you can buy regular Ford PATS key (without the FOB integrated) & use it with the new FOB from the series 200 kit.
  23. From the 2013 Edge Owner's Manual: So a hood switch will be installed if the vehicle is equiped with the "Perimeter Alarm".
