  1. This is the thread @1004ron probably referred to. I did the F150 fix to my Edge and the seat back is better, though still not as good as the seat bottom.
  2. As far as i know, the answer is no to both questions. Also it seems the signal light is not sold by Ford separately, only comes with the complete mirror.
  3. @1004ron Just guessing here, but one code stood out for me as it pretrains to the ignition switch and at a mileage about 178 KM before current reading. Check the Event Time, do you think it coincides with when the 1st fault came or when you disconnected the battery? On another note, having the OBDLink MX+, due keep it plugged in? If yes, since when? Reason I am asking is because I a strange issue come up some time ago (link to Post), though I did not get any dash lights, the solution was to disconnect the battery. It happened twice and in both cases I remember having the OBDLink MX plugged in for a while. Couldn't get a diagnosis on it and since then I never keep the OBDLink plugged in and it hasn't re-appeared.
  4. To read codes, ForScan doesn't need a license. License is needed for ABD configurations. OBDlink app, did you download the "Enhanced" DTCs for your model year? If not, the app will only read the regular OBD II codes. As for your mileage showing  _ _ _ _ _ _ _, I have no previous experience with it, just guessing that since the mileage is stored in the IPC itself, could it be an indication of a failing cluster?
  5. Check what codes you get with ForScan. Though you will probably have many voltage/connection related due to the battery disconnection/reconnection, but some might give an indication. I say ForScan as it can read all modules, not just the PCM (you probably know that).
  6. The 8 hour method resets the current state of recharge, not the battery age. Unfortunately not all dealers reset the battery age. With ForScan there is a PID in the dashboard that can show the battery age, you check it to see how old the vehicle thinks your battery is, just to confirm if it was done or not. If not, ForScan can do it. Also, with ForScan you see if there are any DTC codes, even if there is no check engine light.
  7. There are two, one on each side. For codes, a standard reader won't read such codes, you need something that can read Ford specific codes (enhanced codes). Best thing is to use ForScan with a compatible adapter like the OBDLink MX+.
  8. Attached are the related service procedures. It's similar to the Explorer as posted by @CARR142 Steering Column Control Switch.pdf Steering Column Shrouds.pdf Steering Column Multifunction Switch LH.pdf
  9. There is no SD Card maps for the Middle East for the original MyFord Touch system (Sync 2). The solution is to change it, hack it, or install an aftermarket add-on.
  10. I would suggest disconnecting the battery for ~10 minutes to reset the electronics.
  11. What model is your Edge? There is no Navigation SD Card for the Middle East.
  12. Those are weep holes for water condensate to drain out.
  13. Check the attached for more details on what is covered under warranty. I'm guessing you have a 2019+ Edge and it is the rear fixed glass that is broken, the OEM glass replacement is only $700. The dealers quote seems quite high. I know that the procedure is a bit more labour involved, but still, $1200 seems too high. If it is not uncovered by warranty, suggest you check with glass replacement shops. G0000179 -Window Glass Ford.pdf
  14. Looking at pictures of it (here), it seems it is attached with screws.
  15. Attached is the service procedure for removal of the antenna. Satellite Radio Antenna.pdf
  16. The info regarding the digital manual replacing the paper one seems to be correct. See this link from Ford, the footnote states the following: **On vehicles with digital owner manuals, the paper manual will be dramatically reduced but not fully eliminated. As for your worry of accessing it with a dead battery, you can also access it through your phone (link). For the key code, I couldn't find any info, as far as I can tell, there should've been a card provided. If where you I'd raise a serious concern with the dealer on its whereabouts as it can provided access it's holder access to your vehicle. They should provide it to ensure no one else took it.
  17. Found out that the 2020+ ST Wheel Centercaps are a 100% replacement for my 2016 21", only they are black instead of blue. Part number FR3Z-1003-A. Got them for about $11 each. I had previously purchased an aftermarket set like those available in eBay or Aliexpress (set of 4 for about $12), but they did not fit correctly, the tabs were shorter and they would be loose and easily fall off. I also found a site that sells the set (4 pieces) for $34.95 (link), but as I still had to ship them overseas, my local dealer's price made more sense.
  18. I am guessing because the Sport taillights are darker (blacked out), hence if you install only one side it will be different compared to the other (stock) side, hence the incompatibility (different part numbers).
  19. I do. Going over speed bumps I get the exact same feeling you described. I remember it this way since new. Reading Ford's introduction of the Edge Sport, they did state upgrading the rear shocks compared to the standard but no mention of the front struts.
  20. I am not sure how it is on iPhones, but with an Android, you'd go to the Bluetooth settings and disable "Media audio" for Sync. But that would also disable Bluetooth audio streaming.
  21. The Edge is not supposed to lock by itself automatically when you walk away from it, you have to lock it.
  22. Apparently fuel Tank drilling has started to make news. https://jalopnik.com/fuel-tank-drilling-is-the-hot-new-car-theft-trend-sweep-1848653956
  23. My opinion: Nautilus or Edge: Test drive first. Generally speaking, the Lincoln will be the nicer more comfortable ride, but will depreciate more (percentage wise). In my experience, my 2011 Lincoln MKX though was more expensive than all Edge trims, but after 6 years it's value become slightly below a 2011 Edge Sport with the same engine. 2019 or 2020: Newer, lower mileage is always better, but will be more expensive. V6 or 4 cylinder: I haven't tried the 4 cylinder, but previously had the 3.7L V6 in the 2011 MKX and now have the 2.7 V6 EcoBoost in the Edge Sport, I definitely wouldn't go for the 4 cylinder. Buyer's remorse: Get a V6 2020 Nautilus. You won't regret buying the best option (highest trim, Engine, model...etc.), only your wallet will hurt. ?. Again, Test Drive. This is the biggest deciding factor, in my opinion.
  24. The part number "BU5Z-9C268-B" (for the 2015+ Edge) supersedes (BU5Z-9C268-A), I found one (1) piece of the older part number available on eBay for $27.29.
