As per the 2020 Edge Order Guide, the acoustic windshield is standard equipment.

Seems the 2020 windshield is made by AGC Automotive, while the previous models were from Carlex and the "Soundscreen" branding is apparently part of Carlex.

AGC Automotive also makes acoustic glass as per their website.

What is written on the windshield? Does it say "Soundscreen"?

Here I had posted a photo of the windshield on my 2016.

Keep it in Sport mode without pressing any of the paddle shifters, the transmission should hold gears more & would lockout the highest gear or two.

Make sure the switch is not pressed on the overhead console. See the video below around the 50 sec mark.

it's part of the  IPC firmware.

As far as I know, it's in the PCM. The IPC only resets it and shows it. There is a PCM PID to show the oil life percentage.

Maybe it's a conflict of interest issue ?.

Would anyone know if you can change the oil change reminder via FORScan?

Did not read about it anywhere. Would be good to be able to change to a custom interval.

I've checked the manual. But, anyone have a page number or idea, on when an oil change should be done on an Edge ST?

 

Thanks 

Page 432 of the manual "NORMAL SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE". You can download a "PDF" version of the manual or browse an HTML (website). Link to 2020 FORD EDGE OWNER MANUAL, WARRANTY & OTHER INFORMATION.

In short, the manual states to follow the Oil change reminder which should come up at a maximum interval of 10K miles or 1-year.

From the manual:

NORMAL SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE

Oil Change Reminder

Your vehicle comes with an oil change reminder that determines when you should change the engine oil based on how you use your vehicle.

Your vehicle lets you know when an oil change is due by displaying a message in the information display.

The following table provides examples of vehicle use and its impact on oil change intervals. It is a guideline only. Actual oil change intervals depend on several factors and generally decrease with severity of use.

 

When to expect the OIL CHANGE REQUIRED Message
Interval	Vehicle Use and Example
7500–10000 mi (12,000–16,000 km)	Normal
	Normal commuting with highway driving   No, or moderate, load or towing   Flat to moderately hilly roads   No extended idling
5000–7500 mi (8,000–12,000 km)	Severe
	Moderate to heavy load or towing   Mountainous or off-road conditions   Extended idling   Extended hot or cold operation
3000–5000 mi (5,000–8,000 km)	Extreme
	Maximum load or towing   Extreme hot or cold operation

Ford can tell exactly how many times the PCM was flashed and when it was flashed. I don't know if CARB has that capability. I don't think that would be their mandate. They are probably only interested in what is flashed on the PCM at the time of testing but pure speculation on my part.

Thankfully it's a non issue where I live.

My understanding from Ford engineers is all they can see with a stock tune is how many ignition cycles have occurred.  So if you bring it in with 25,000 miles and only 50 key cycles they know it was reflashed.  Of course they can see a non stock tune.

As per the attached document, they'd look at the ignition cycle counter using mode 9. But the LMS tuner does not reset the counter, neither on a performance tune or when returning to stock. I have seen this myself. So it won't be detectable.

As @1004ron stated above, you can lock a fob inside using another fob from the outside or using the kaypad by pressing & holding the "9-0" & "7-8" buttons. The kaypad will still unlock the door.

You can use https://www.etis.ford.com to check using the VIN how the vehicle was equipped. But you need to register first.

Also, you can contact US Ford online parts sites. They can sell you the correct parts based on your VIN. 

For example, https://www.levittownfordparts.com/

They are also active on this forum. Benny. @LevittownFordSuperCenter

Another good site I use sometimes is Tasca Parts.

I don't think it's original, is it?

No. There is no Titanium ST. There is a "ST" & a "ST-Line". No Titanium ST.

It's odd because I had the chimes but now I do not. I never had the overspeed chime.

I suspect it is a mismatch between the Lincoln IPC's chime generator to the Ford Audio system, like some chimes or parts of them should have gone to a speaker(s) not available on the the Ford.

The overspeed chime is enabled for the GCC market, a single chime & a yellow indicator showing (>120). This can also be enabled/disabled using ForScan.

A question to those who did the MKX Cluster retrofit,  do your chimes work fine? Mine are now Lincoln chimes but the problem is they have noticeably lower volume. Also, I remember when closing the liftgate a warning chime used to come at the rear, this doesn't come anymore. I feel like the Lincoln Chimes are only coming from the front speakers instead of from front and back and hence the liftgate chimes not coming.

 

Note: The chimes are coming from the speakers, not from the IPC. So it is not that issue.

Can anyone confirm this? I also now confirmed that the liftgate closing chime & overspeed (+120km/h) chime don't come. If the chimes are switched to IPC they will come, but if the chimes are set to vehicle speakers they don't.

The GEN 2 procedure represents a streamlining of the "To Drive:" process with the Intelligent Key present -- at least on U.S. paper -- apparently substituting the the Gear Shift interlock button for the GEN 1 action of pressing the Start button, such that stepping on the brake pedal & shifting is all that's necessary to get a GEN 2 vehicle underway.

Sorry, I might have not been clear, the gear shift interlock is still there and you still need to press the start button (with or without the brake pedal). It has been mostly the same process between my previous 2011 MKX & current 2016 Edge. The only difference was that on the 2011, pressing the shifter lock button before the start button while remote started would have shutdown the engine (even though the shifter is still locked). On the 2016 nothing happens when pressing the shifter lock button before the start button (shifter remain locked).

i wasn't sure if my memory was faulty or not so i checked yesterday and can confirm that on my 2020 ST if i use the remote start i must NOT press the brake pedal while pressing the start/stop button. if i do, the engine shuts down. and if i recall correctly, this was the same on my 2016 Ti.

 

i find it strange that a Lincoln would be different. Could it be a country specific behavior?

I don't remember right now what would be shown on the IPC, but I can press the start button with or without pressing the brake pedal on my 2016 Edge Sport while it is remote started. It does seem strange that pressing the brake pedal would shut down the engine.

10th one down shows "lane keeping alarm, warning chime". 

Wouldn't be the first time the service manual was incorrect.

That doesn't sound like a chime from a Ford. Are you sure it is not coming from your phone, tablet or some other device you have inside your vehicle? I don't have factory navigation, so I can't say if it might be from that.

I was thinking that if your not around and remote start your car and anyone can pop into it, they could just drive it away. For an auto thief, not that hard to crawl on through the moonroof and ... yippee!!

The shift lever is locked during remote start. With the key being inside & pressing the start button, the vehicle wouldn't move. Can't even release the parking brake.

Although this video is for an Explorer, the same thing might also be happening:

Probably the lane keep assist. Previous owner probably had it on sound only. Should be on the left side of the speedometer screen, under driver assist. 

There is no "Sound" alert on Ford's system. The alert is by vibration of the steering wheel. I don't if it was changed in newer models, but the 2016 Edge is like that.

From the owner's manual:

Quote

Alert only – Provides a steering wheel vibration when the system detects an unintended lane departure.

Quote

Alert + Aid – Provides an assistance steering torque input toward the lane center. If your vehicle continues drifting out of the lane, the system provides a steering wheel vibration.

Well, that's a jaw dropper. It seems logical that Ford considered that the car had the doors closed when starting, requiring only that they be locked. But it would appear that they never thought of the doors open and locked as an acceptable alternate.  

 

Makes no sense to allow the car to be running, unattended and doors open allowing anyone access!

 

That's a HUGE oops!

I don't see any reason to prevent remote starting with doors open, there is no safety or security risk I can think off that's more than starting it & letting it idle. For me, with our hot climate, remote starting has been a must have convenience since 2012 and I use it most of the time. Remote starting with a door or liftgate open means I can start it & get the A/C to start cooling while I'm loading things, or if someone (usually kids) entered the vehicle before me.

These were not the outcomes I expected.

With my previous 2011 MKX, pressing the shifter's button while remote started would shutdown the engine. This was annoying when I forgot to press the engine start button & tried to shift out of park the engine would shutdown. Even though the shifter was locked, still pressing the button killed the engine. Is it still the case with your 2015 MKX? Thankfully it is not anymore with my current 2016 Edge & 2015 MKS.

Not in North America.

As also confirmed by @Haz, this is the case in North American Fords. I currently own a 2016 Edge Sport & a 2015 Lincoln MKS, both do it, so did 2012 & 2013 Explorers and 2015 Expedition, Flex owned by friends. All NA models. I would be surprised if your Ford did NOT remote start with a door or the liftgate open.

This is the Ford Performance Tuner (Procal 4) which looks similar to the Livernoise Calibrator Touch, but with a bumper case. Even the software looks similar:
