I am not really audiophile person. They all sound good. But I also didn't try the 2016 MKX. It's just too expensive! Both the MKX as a car & the Revel audio option.

Here is an article about the system on the 2008 MKX.

The 3.5 V6 can tow 3500 pounds when properly equipped from the factory. The towing package includes upgraded cooling fans & an upgraded radiator.

I remember reading that for best snow wheels, the smallest stock wheel size is always better, in case of the Edge, that would be 17" or 18". Just a thought.

I was surprised that the part requires the complete rear glass to be changed. But it does seem to be an assembly! Though its not for $700!

Probably not possible, and if I recall correctly, at least for the fobs with remote start, the frequency is different.

Blind spot definitely wont work as it also needs sensors at the rear for detection. As for the signal lights, I don't believe anyone tried it before, best way to check is disconnect the mirror wiring in your Edge & see how many wires are used & if there are any unused connectors on the vehicle side. If all wires/connectors are used, then you'll need to run your own wires for them.

It is mentioned briefly on page 377. Maybe since 2011 was its first year it was implemented correctly or on earlier builds, though mine is a May 2011 build.

Both options have pro/con, the best option is for the vehicle to offer both. I have seen it in a Chrysler minivan & a older 200. One has a battery logo on the 12 volt cover & the other has a key (if I remember correctly).

As per the manual & the source book, the 2011 has the IOLM. Maybe setting it to any thing other than 100% would remove the intelligent part & switch to mileage based monitoring.

From the owners manual: With my 2011 MKX, I always reset it to 50% and consistently get the reminder at 5000 miles. For me it is so consistent that I don't believe it takes any thing into consideration except for distance. Also note that were I live we get extremely high weather, easily 120+ for most of the summer. Also our driving is an extreme city cycle.

As you mentioned & found out, the MKX uses a module with a theromelectric element & a fan. It actually uses the Peltier effect. There are no heating pads. I do not recall there being a timer for it, nor do I remember it ever cutting off. I'd guess you have something wrong with the seat climate module which controls both seats and it's the reason it is cutting off.

EBay is usually a very good source for good used parts. But, looking at your photos, that broken plastic piece doesn't seem to be present in other mirrors! Are sure that is something original? You had your car since new? maybe a previous owner changed it? There are 2 types of mirrors for 2011, early builds had the larger mirror (similar to 2007-2010) while the newer builds got the smaller mirror. Both don't show that extra plastic trim! Newer type mirror Old type mirror

There is supposed to be a new TSB to fix it for the 2015/16 Edge & 2016 Explorer. Check this thread.

Off topic, but somehow related, the courtesy wipe on the 2007 Avalon was speed dependent, the faster you drove, the earlier the courtesy wipe activated until you reached a certain speed when then the courtesy wipe would not activate. Talk about details. On topic, on the 2011 & newer Edge/MKX, the feature can be disable in the instrument cluster & is also available in the body control module. Maybe a dealer can disable it through IDS. Note: After using the washer the wiper would wipe 3 times, pause, then courtesy wipe, if I manually make a wipe immediately after the 3 wipes then I wouldn't get the courtesy wipe after the pause. If you dislike the courtesy wipe due to its timing, may this would help.

I am sure there are changes in the PTU for the 2015/2016 Edge, but I'd be more inclined to say it's closer to the old design (pre 2015). This part number "DG1Z7251D" is specified for the 2015 Edge with hit climate (I think GCC) but is also the exact same part for the 2013-2015 Explorer & Taurus (with hot climate), so if one variant of the PTU for the 2015/16 Edge is a direct part for the older Explorer/Taurus, then I'd say the main AWD system is also similar. Note: part numbers for other variants of the PTU for the 2015/16 Edge seem to be unique to the 2015/16 Edge, so there is definitely some change.

There is an older post with some photos: http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/15547-any-one-have-pics-of-husky-mud-guards-installed/?do=findComment&comment=119427 I had them on my MKX, honeslty, they do the job but they are very long, kinda too long to look correct & they scraped a lot for me when driving off paved roads or small curbs/speed bumps.

I don't know how to change them or even if it is possibly as they are LEDs already. Check the owners manual & it states all interior lights are LED. I think the only regular (incandescent) bulbs on the 2015+ Edge are the low & high beams (base models), DRL, front signals & rear license plates. Here is a link the owners manual for the bulb specifications.

It is definitely not mentioned in the owner's manual for the 2007-2014 models. I knew about it in the 2011+ Explorer. I thought it was due to the Edge having the old system with the power strut as an add on to the liftgate, the 2011+ Explorer doesn't have it.

I am not aware of any procedure to do that in the 2007-2014 Edge (2007-2015 MKX). They did add the feature to the new 2015/2016 Edge.

From the 2015 Edge Source Book: Sport-tuned Suspension: Final drive ratio of 3.16:1 with FWD, 3.39:1 when equipped with AWD Includes revised front strut tuning, rear spring rates and rear jounce bumper

Anything programmable or Forscan knows about is probably already translated, meaning Forscan will give the the options to change the program for it, like the DRL. The other lines are unknown, except ofcours by the manufacturer. Some have compared the As bult data between similar vehicles with different options & would find out what some difference would mean, but it is a long process. The USB link from Scantool (OBDLink SX) does not support MS-CAN, so it would be better to go for the Bluetooth MX. (There is no USB version for the MX, only wifi & Bluetooth).

Though I agree it is a crappy design, many don't face the problem. Also Ford updated the switch (Part number ending with B replaced A), so replacements should be better. Also, as per the latest TSB, the fix has to do with some electrical/heating fix. Also now there are alternative aftermarket parts. http://www.amazon.com/APDTY-Integrated-Driver-Side-7T4Z7821813C-8T4Z7821813A/dp/B00QB4EWQC/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1461901118&sr=8-5&keywords=ford+edge+door+latch http://www.amazon.com/Dorman-937-628-Door-Lock-Actuator/dp/B00HRSSSCA/ref=pd_sim_sbs_263_1?ie=UTF8&dpID=4132Xo8I1gL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_&refRID=04PQ6Q6G39ZDBV2V7VE3

You have a 2013, even if it was purchased used from a non-Ford dealer, it might still be under warranty if it was originally purchased mid/late 2013 & mileage is under 36K miles.

Thanks Haz for the input. So 2 issues are now clear, the DRLs are activated by shifting out of "P" and they remain on with the parking lights. The difference is that I have the DRLs activated on the Fog lights, so I'd like someone with Fog lights as DRLs to confirm regarding the indicator to make sure it is normal or is it from the Forscan software. I also used the same software on a 2015 Expedition & got the same results.
