  1. You don't need a relay because HIDs draw less current then regular bulbs.
  2. After 2 weeks and replacing the modules and switches they wound up replacing both motors.
  3. I had my MKX at the dealer because the mirrors would move a little and stop. After replacing some modules and switches they finally replaced both motors and that took care of it. FWIW, they had the car for 2 weeks trying to figure it out.
  4. You don't need a relay because HID's use less power than regular bulbs. HID's run around 35 watts, regular bulbs are around 50. I installed them on mine and were plug and play. I got the 4300k because i wanted the most light and no blue.
  5. I have an 08 MKX. When you go to adjust the side mirrors (either one) it moves a little and stops. If you take your hand off the joystick and move it again it will move again but only a little. To adjust the mirror you have to play with the stick. The dealer replaced the switch but it still does the same thing. When i went to pick the vehicle up we went over the repairs and I showed him how it still does the same thing. We checked another MKX and it doesn't do it. The other one worked correctly. He said they will repair it the next time I bring it in. Any ideas? The dealer may be clueless.
  6. I put in the HIDs in my MKX. They were $100 on the net. Easy plug and play install. Super bright. I got the 4300k. When you go higher you get blue and less light. But its just a persona preference.
  7. Isn't the space shuttle made by the lowest bidder?
  8. These are definately defects. You are in the drivers seat. The warranty is on your side. Don't be afraid to go the arbitration. After you fill out the form on-line they call you. Then you put the ball in their court and sit back and relax.
  9. My theory is that Ford has to engineer their system to the products already out in the market. It's like Ford selling a car with a radio that only picked up stations on the upper half of the FM band. You take it to the dealer and they say it's operating like it was designed to. That doesn't make it right. Like saying it's an Ipod issue when the Ipod was around way before sync. Plus I feel that since Microsoft has designed the sync system and is in competition with Apple / Mac then they purposely made it to have problems with the Ipod. Just my 2 cents.
  10. I finally went back and had it replaced. Now here is the funny part. They washed the car before I picked it up. I get the keys from the cashier lady and go to the car. I look at the rear light and it has moisture in it. I call the service guy out and he feels bad. Now they have to order another one. I'll keep ya informed.
  11. How do you convert your Itunes to MP3"s?
  12. I have an 08 MKX and was washing it the other day and noticed that water is getting behind the light bar on the rear hatch. Has anyone had this problem?
  13. If you don't put it in park you can't get the keys out. WHen the vehicle is parked the auto trans should be in park. That's why they call it "Park".
