  1. Just a note, in case you didn't know. You can "Pause" your trip meter by pressing the "Ok" button (instead of holding for reset). This can help you in saving your trip information for later reference.
  2. For the 1st generation Sync (other than 2011+ MyFord Touch), there is an application "SYNC My Phone" that can be downloaded from the SyncMyRide.com website under "SYNC Utilities". The app is for manually creating and downloading phonebook contacts to SYNC-equipped vehicles via a USB drive.
  3. The 2014 already showed up on Ford's Media website! http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/12419-will-there-be-a-2014-model/?do=findComment&comment=97726 Its the same as the 2013 model with 2 new colors!
  4. Go for Ford approved accessories. http://accessories.ford.com/vehicles/edge/2012/electronics/remote-start.html Out of which, I would recommend the 100-series since it is the most "Factory like" setup. You get 2 new keys that look like you original keys, but with a remote start button, and the dealer would then activate the remote start features in the settings menu (left cluster screen) that would enable the remote start options explained in the owners manual like pre-cooling/heating of the interior. http://accessories.ford.com/remote-start-system-rpo-plug-in-play-kit.html
  5. A new switch from Ebay costs only USD 36.00. I would try that first. http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-OEM-STEERING-COLUMN-TURN-SIGNAL-SWITCH-FORD-LINCOLN-VEHICLES-BT4Z-13341-BA-/360496062990?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Year%3A2011%7CMake%3AFord%7CModel%3AEdge&hash=item53ef3d620e&vxp=mtr
  6. Make sure they are replaced with laminated windows, not normal windows.
  7. My guess would be that it was originally planned to change the 2014 model, but for some reason the plan changed. Hence the delay in the 2014 model startup.
  8. When you flash to pass, the HID bulb turns on & the shutter moves to give high beam. The same is true for standard Halogen bulb equipped Edges. (We are talking 2011+) All you need is to connect the installed HID lights in place of the removed single filament bulb. Treat it as it were low beam system only. When flashing in the day time, the vehicle will turn on both. Note: The flash to pass in stock HID set up (on my MKX and a friend's 13'Explorer) will turn on for ~1-2 seconds only regardless of how long (or briefly) you pull the signal stalk.
  9. 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.
  10. I would like to see bigger brakes & the 3.5 Ecoboost!
  11. You can get 2011 Mirrors, they are bigger but you lose the led turn signals (if yours has them).
  12. 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
  13. 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.
  14. Check this thread: http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/10908-transmission-sport-mode-misnomer/
  15. 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?
  16. 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.
  17. 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.
  18. 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.
  19. Each projector has a different lighting pattern. From the owner's manual:
  20. 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.
  21. To confirm what Dingo said, if you the signal on, the signal noise will go away while the seatbelt chime is on.
  22. 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.
  23. 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.
