Sometimes you'll hear noise if the dash rubs against the glass windshield.

resale value on the 2015 with MFT will be poor compared to the 2016 with Sync3.

It looks like it would let you download an app if apps existed for it

you should buy it from the colorbond site. www.colorbondpaint.com. You can find your exact interior color by brand.

I just looked at mine and noticed the center ones are not covered. Only the threads are capped.and the two outer ones are covered completely with plastic covers. I don't think you'll ever have anyone notice because it's under the seat and in the middle.

My Edge Limited has covers. I almost removed them because the Maxliner floor liners interfere with them a little. I think when they made the liners they didn't use an Edge with caps on the seat brackets.

Awesome stuff. It's hard to believe how well it works. It is almost magic... right Paul?

Usually the black and Grey wire is the VSS wire. Vehicle Speed Sensor. Im thinking they had a tracking monitor device connected.

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night. Congrats on the grandson.

Just wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas.

Haha. Created a little stir

I've been researching at the new Sync3 platform. I'm trying to visualize it being used while driving. The screen seems to lack any color making it so vanilla that it would be hard to know where to press the screen without stopping and reading each button. It's like reading kindle. The other problem is that when you have a white screen like that it can be a huge distraction at night, because it will be so bright. They need to give it some contrast so people can gaze over and hit the button they want.

I think that MFT has a better layout and they just need to tweak what they have. What do you think?

Mine always starts as the aqua green then fades to the color that I have set once the car starts. I do wish that I had the white LED color like my wife has in her Mercury Milan. Kinda weird there are two blue colors that look almost alike and no white.

i dont think I could get used to the push button shift. It's kinda weird.

I'm 6 foot tall and I my seat pulls forward at least 3 inches ever time I get into the car. But if my seat was way back the steering wheel doesnt telescope out far enough to make it comfortable. I guess any taller than 6 foot and you'll start to feel awkward. The seats are nice and wide though and plenty of room to spread out right to left.

I had this happen to my 2004 Ford Escape and it was a broken Tone ring. It wasn't too bad to replace. Corrosion formed under it and the ring snapped so when I hit the brakes the ABS would trigger every time.

Sounds like you have a similar problem but with traction control it will do it on turns because the outer wheel will spin faster. Your broken tone ring will be on the right side, opposite of the turning direction.

Im getting a little annoyed now that I'm hearing we won't get sync3. I just want to be able to update MFT using the WIFI connection and some apps like Pandora. What's wrong with adding this? Those of us that have MFT or MLT payed for a premium system with the hardware for wifi and the option for Apps that is pretty much useless. COME ON FORD. Give us some good news. Its crazy that the basic Sync system gets apps but MFT doesn't. WHO AGREES?

All I want is the option for Apps. It shows the option on my system but I dont know if we can use it.

are all the wheels scuffed up? or is it just one or two or three?

Take a trip to the auto store. and get some new struts because even if the power liftgate mechanism is failing you will still need new struts.

I think that the struts do most of the opening when it comes to the automated liftgate. Even if you open the liftgate without power it should support itself. good luck.

If you need a resistor use this formula to figure out the resistor size. Resistor value=(12volts - LED volts)/ LED current. Always choose the next higher resistor than your calculation.

I found a bunch of blue LEDs in my electrical tool box from a ambient lighting project 10 years ago in my Mitsubishi 3000gt. I was going to buy them online but you can get them faster if you go to radio shack. I've bought them there in the past but they charge a lot more money and I think you'll need to purchase the resistors separately to make them work appropriate for the 12volt system. Good Luck.

I think you would be able to remove the illuminated part and install it on the sills that you have. I compared my standard stainless sills vs the illuminated ones and the part number molded into the plastic was the same. There are small metal tabs(part of the exposed stainless) that protrude through the plastic sill and are bent over to hold the stainless in place. Gently bending them straight and pushing the piece out should make it an easy swap.

There are always sets on ebay but I never saw the medium-light stone sills until they were listed a coupe weeks ago.
