  1. If you don't have NAV, then you should not have any problems. If both, the Fusion & and Edge have NAV, then also no problems, in case the Fusion did NOT have Nav but the Edge does, there is a small chance of losing NAV. That's what I understood from this whole update becoming dealer only. Also, note that there is a 3.10 version available at dealers. So if you are still under warranty, just take it to the dealer to get the 3.10 version.
  2. Try cleaning the passenger side (-) temp button, it seems like it is being pressed. You can also try a battery disconnect to reset the electronics. Last suggestion if it still doesn't work is try to clean the button from behind after removing the panel.
  3. The insert comes as unit, quite expensive: http://m.ebay.com/itm/331887938853 Try to check the wiring & cleaning the connectors, it might be a simple issue.
  4. The module programming or AsBuilt data is different for 2015+ Edge & 2016+ MKX. They now follow the newer Ford "system", so they are similar to 2013+ Fusion, 2015+ F150, 2016+ Explorer... Etc. These are the ADB values for 2015+ Edge: BdyCM 726-41-02 0001 0000 0071 (Double Honk Enabled, Default) BdyCM 726-41-02 0000 0000 0070 (Double Honk Disabled) # 4th/12th digit number is 1: double honk enabled # 4th/12th digit number is 0: double honk disabled
  5. The compass in the MFT screen represents a ball compass, like what Akirby stated, it is correct. See the below video & see how when the car is pointing South & turns to the right (West) the compass turns the the other way to indicate the correct direction (East). The directions on the compass are located in the correct positionfor a ball compass. https://youtu.be/r7DPEskWlrk
  6. I don'thave an iPhone but with my HTC 10 messages are received & read out on MFT version 3.10. Also the envelope icon does appear, but it is actually a notification of unread messages, so once they are read it goes away.
  7. Just remember that the fans are different between models with & without the factory towing package. Also models with the towing package have 2 relays instead of one.
  8. This look like fins to cause air turbulence, or maybe since the air is actually coming from the Turbos, they are meant to correct some turbulence due to the air coming from a high speed compressor.
  9. The 2011 MKX also opens the VISTA shades & vents the glass. Which I can disable it & only keep the windows.
  10. Something to also consider with selection of the Edge: Memory seats are only available in Limited & Sport models. Very useful if 2 drive the car.

    Radiator Fan?

    Do you mean the fans keep running for ~10 seconds after the engine is shut off? I am not sure that any Edge generation does this, the 2011-2014 definitely doesn't. If that is the case, hopefully someone with a 2007 will chime in to confirm. It might be an electrical issue or a bad Relay causing the fan to remain on.
  12. Highway miles will definitely be worse, especially if you go with AWD. If you don't need AWD, then by all means skip it. It adds weight & means you extra stuff to worry about failing (PTU). The Limited is the only Edge that had factory HID option, so if it's only the wood you don't like, you can cover it up. Also, consider the MKX, they are basically a more luxurious version of the Edge but with the 3.7L engine. Since it's Lincoln, depreciation would be higher so you can get one at a price close to the Edge, and they have a longer warranty period.
  13. Aftermarket should work if they are specified for your year, like the ones & linked to in my above post.
  14. I can't say, I don't have a definite answer. My guess is that OEM 2011 specific sensors wouldn't work on your 2007.
  15. The display on the main screen is for outside temperature. Since the outside temp was 76 & your set temp was 74, I am more inclined to thing that the cabin's actual temp was near or a little below 74 & hence the hot air at the beginning. The system determines the cabin temp from a sensor behind the dash at the driver's right knee location, the area that has a small cent opening.
  16. 2007 models used band style sensors. 2011+ use stem mounted sensors. Though they work on the same frequencies, they are different. Found an eBay listing for aftermarket replacements for the 2007 that changes them from band style to stem mounted, but the compatibility list doesn't show any new models, leaving me to believe they don't interchange.
  17. Cruise control in hilly/mountain roads will reduce your fuel economy. From Edmunds:
  18. It has been a while now, but Ford apparently decided to NOT offer the updates on the website, so regardless of the current version you have, it will always show that you have the latest. You have to go to a dealer for the official updates.
  19. This should mean to calibrate the compass, for some reason it is entering calibration mode. Don't remember reading on this before, try disconnecting the battery for about 10 minutes to reset the electronics, it may just sort it out. Also could be something causing the compass to go out of calibration, like magnet, though I am not sure were is the compass located, maybe on or behind the rear view mirror.
  20. Those having the issue, do you press & release the button or press & hold it? In my MKX (though an older generation) you have to press for a second or so.
  21. I just checked the program, it is clear as I suggested, the one-time repair under this program should be done after expiry of the original warranty:
  22. If were to try and find a workaround, I'd check if the previous replacement was done during the original 3/36 bumper to bumper warranty, if it was, then I'd argue that the 1st replacement was supposed to be covered by the original warranty & that this replacement would be the 1st under the extended warranty.
