In fact, my wife said she thought it was choking her. What would have been a good idea is to configure the back seat belts to be adjustable like the fronts for comfort.

I got my answer yesterday when I drove a '15 Sport. It looks like the airflow is better but I have not put it on full honk to see how much.

Just test drove a '15 Sport yesterday. I definitely like the power and steering. Wife didn't like the back seat because she could not adjust the belt.

Xenon Depot kit troubles
PrinzII replied to mestguy182's topic in Glass, Lenses, Lighting, Mirrors, Sunroof (BAMR), Wipers
I think your car may have the Daytime Running Lamps activated. -
I got those certificates and they came in handy when a piece of road debris sliced my Yokohama YK580 on the outer sidewall. Given that construction season is in full swing around the country, those certificates will come in VERY handy, IJS.

Xenon Depot kit troubles
PrinzII replied to mestguy182's topic in Glass, Lenses, Lighting, Mirrors, Sunroof (BAMR), Wipers
Well, let me throw a little light on the subject (pun intended) I ran into similar issues when I bought my 2011 Limited. However, I found that the car had DRLs that were activated (Originally a CA car). I had to go to the dealer to have them disable it in order for my HIDs to work. The next point is that I am currently running a 35w 5000K HID system in mine without a relay harness. What kind of ballasts are the ones you have? Through trial and error, I found that the Canbus ballast worked with no problem. I would test your ballast in a different car to check their behavior. If it fires with no problem in a non-Canbus car, your issue is definitely the ballast is not compatible with the Edge's electrical system. -

Well, looks like the wife wants to put our Edge on the road again. She wants to go to her family event in St. Louis which means that lighting upgrade is going to have to happen sooner than later. (My wallet just winced) -

What have you done to/with your Edge/MKX today?
PrinzII replied to WWWPerfA_ZN0W's topic in Accessories & Modifications
Forgot to mention they don't fit the 2011s. They do have 3157s. -
However, the vertical vents from the 2007-2010 Edge had nothing to do with how weak the air conditioning was. The 2011-2014 is better but I am curious whether the air flow has been ramped up with the vertical vents.

I just test drove a 2008 SEL with 111,639 on the clock for a friend who is Edge shopping. The following things were wrong with it.... 1) Brake pedal had a very mushy feel to it. Probably needed to do the brake fluid service. 2) I did hear some wheel bearing noise, especially after application of the brakes 3) Transmission slippage from 3-4 4) Scratch on rear door

I did see some switchbacks at AutoZone for $19 but I am not 100% sure of the light output being better than the type 1s I had. -

Tell me about it. The options at VLEDs (other than Tritons) are not much better than Halogens in terms of light output. -

Now that wifey is slowly getting back to normal, I have to revisit lighting projects on the Edge. Things changed recently because my switchbacks got screwed up because the lead wires broke off and fell to the ground. I am running halogen bulbs currently. -

Rundown of everything done to the Edge for the past month: a) Had 90k maintenance performed. Also had sparkplugs changed and door latch replaced (again). Drove to Indian Wells, CA for the tennis tournament with wifey. Avg mpg: 22-24. Literally took one tank of gas to drive there. c) Had to remove my type 1 switchbacks because the metal clips broke off and fell to the ground when I pulled them out. Upcoming: a) Revising lighting mod plans to include new Type 1 switchbacks. I don't really want to go with the Tritons. -
Honestly, I am on the hunt for polyurethane bushings.

Same here. I have quite a bit of it left and have not had a chance to use it all up.

I don't think you should. But I am curious whether or not the CD player is where the receiver would be. If that's the case, you may just need the CD player.

For grins, I actually did the following to the center console of my 2011 Edge: a) Applied Klasse All-In-One Polish by hand Applied Klasse Sealant Glaze by hand c) Topped with Pinnacle XMT by hand That console is still shiny to this date. The only thing I have to worry about is my Sync applique that keeps popping off. May look into an epoxy to fix it.

headlight trouble
PrinzII replied to Ricky Hardin's topic in Glass, Lenses, Lighting, Mirrors, Sunroof (BAMR), Wipers
When you activate the high beams, do you hear any unusual noises? In the 2011-2014 Edge, the shutter does make a sound normally but if you hear anything other than that, it's definitely your shutter going bad. -
