According to the owners manual, the correct fuse is #29 for the Radio, Multifunction display screen, Electronic finish panel & SYNC module. Try pulling and leave out for 1/2 hour to allow the caps to fully drain.

Sorry, should have bee clearer, I had a 2016 MKX for a few days (as a loaner). Yes, my 09 has the standard FOB. Actually, I prefer the "old fashioned" key. I found the IA to be a bit bulky. Also, it refused to start the car once, even though it was in my pocket. Car said there was no IA present in the car. (?) One other area I had trouble with was locking the car. I ended up locking the cat by pressing the FOB each time, probably don't know how to do properly.

The standard is a Motorcraft synthetic blend. However they will do any oil you request. If they don't stock it, you can always purchase it locally and have them do the service. I've had them do Mobile One (don't anymore, blend is fine with me), but I've found, at least my local dealet, will do whatever I ask them to do. If I furnish the oil, it's just their labor rate. I prefer the "Works" as I get the tire rotation and a general look over. As I have an older MKX, prefer to find problems in their early stages.

Had a friend who plugged in two USB drives at the same time. They caught him and he got two years probation. But that's the kind of fool he was. He also did time for removing a tag on his mattress.

Something seems to be broadcasting. Whenever I walk in the garage with the key in my pocket, the welcome light came on, and I wasn't close to the car.

Is it me or is this another "Who Shot JR"? A can of beer, half a bag of pretzels and no Part 2. Part 2, Part 2, hurry, I can't stand the suspense. Heh. Man, I could clean my driveway in 4 seconds with a power sprayer like that. Wash the paint off your car or cut it in half. Just think of all the fun stuff you could do ..

Ah yes, translation. I've heard of tennis elbow but sandpaper elbow that's a new one.

FWIW, My drivers seat lumbar broke. The motor was working, but the gearbox stripped. Now a failed lumbar is no big deal, but I wanted it fixed. To repair the seat, they had to remove the seat from the car and disassemble it. The lumbar is removed as a complete assembly through ghe bottom of the seat upright. (My local garage had never replace one before and asked several other dealership's for advice. Seems no other dearship has ever been asked to repair a lumbar). Anyway, it went in on Friday and got it back on Wednesday. (Also had new rotors and pads on front, one tie rod end and a brake fluid flush ). The lumbar took a day and a half labor. My service contract covered it except for the deductible. Figure the labor at $90/hour x 10 hours (conservative) = $900 + the cost of the seat interior guts and you can see how an extended warranty comes in handy. Also, the inner tie rod end was also covered and came under the deductible. They had to drop an undercarriage to replace it (what they told.me, don't know what's involved).

FordTechMakuloco just released a new video walk through on the procedure for changing spark plugs on the Gen 2 engines. Covers evey detail, every connector, every bolt and hose. Very, very detailed. Offers several tips as well, such as the correct procedure to blow out the cylinder to remove dust and dirt from threads, etc. Also has a complete list of tools and products used.

Something like this work? New and OEM, but $$$$ http://www.ebay.com/itm/152104062148

Some sources state that the fob continues to communicate with the car. http://www.chicagotribune.com/classified/automotive/sc-motormouth-autos-0616-20160613-column.html http://www.chicagotribune.com/classified/automotive/sc-motormouth-autos-0316-column.html http://m.autoserviceprofessional.com/article/94711/Today-s-key-fobs-smart-keys-Technological-advances-provide-convenience-and-cause-problems

Pulsating brakes can be caused by several items. One of the most common is a wheel that was put on and the lugs were not torqued; or torqued in the proper order (IE 1-3-5-4-2 instead of 1-2-3-4-5). This results in an uneven force being applied to the rotor (taking it out of flat). This following webpage will explain this and add additional concerns. http://www.supremeautonaples.com/index.php?page=newsjuly2011

I do! Only 108,000 miles on them. Will need an additional $70 for shipping. ?

DI'd you mean the "FICM"? If so, the Fuel Injection Control Module is repairable for around $120. However it had nothing to do with the climate control or radio, or passenger airbag, or turn signals or anything else besides tbe fuel injectors. Perhaps I misienterperted and there is indeed a FCIM that actually controls the radio and HVAC and airbags. What exactly is the FCIM?

Peanuts. A set of Michelin's designed for the Veyron will set you back $69,000 and last 6,000 miles. After the second replacment, Michelin requires you to scrap the rims and go with new ones.

Whatever you decide, check out the quality of the rims before you buy. There are s lot of cheap, Chinese rims sold today that can (and do) fail on the road. (Mainly from hitting a pot hole). I would be especially careful if the price is low. A good starting point is wwwm.TireRack.com [edit] for rims you need to use the full site, not the mobile site. Also, you can use their price as a bargining chip. I quoted their price at my local Ford/Lincoln dealer and they immediately matched. Saved couple of hundred.

Sorry, I may have misread your post. If it's the plastic tabs on the back of the mirror that were broke, it's an easy enough job to just put a new mirror glass on (comes with the plastic mount attached to the new glass). The 08 didn't have the blind spot inset so you can get a replacement glass with plastic mounting tabs for about $24. http://m.ebay.com/itm/Left-Heated-Door-Mirror-Glass-fits-2007-2008-Lincoln-MKX-Ford-Edge-Dorman-56120-/331573169174?fits=Year%3A2008%7CMake%3AFord%7CModel%3AEdge&hash=item4d334d0c16%3Ag%3AhYAAAOSw7GRZMsIo&_trkparms=pageci%253A600ca1fd-4ac6-11e7-9d47-74dbd180b9ed%257Cparentrq%253A7ddb74e315c0ab4d298f3c97ffff7b11%257Ciid%253A3

"Abnorment". Def: lots & lots & lots. Looked it up in my Trumpism dictionary.

Would this fix your problem? http://www.ebay.com/itm/271713556181

"Up to 82% increase in airflow". <shock> So how are they achieving this? By being more porus, I would guess. And if it's more porus, it doesn't trap the smallest of particles, those that will eventually scour the cylinder walls and pollute the oil faster. So exactly how is this filter better than OEM, where Ford has spent an abnorment amount of time studying the best filter to use, to offer the best compromise between engine protection, fuel economy, oil pollution and performance? And they claim justification for charging $62 for their filter, that you can wash it out and reuse it. Three times! First of all that's about the same price as using 3 OEM filters, that you simply throw away. Then there's the questionable use of mechanically cleaning a filter and reusing it. Does the very act of cleaning weaken the substrate? Are you certain to remove all the particles of grit? How much degretation has taken place through use and cleaning? I've said it before, you cannot get better (all things considered) than the OEM filter. And K&N filters were designed for racing, not street use. They will work, so will removing the air filter and running without one. (But at what cost)?

Don't think that works on a 14 though. Have to look under the dash or have the dealer read it with a computer.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

Years ago I worked in the city. Everyday at lunch I would walk to a local coffee house for lunch and have to cross an alley. One day an ambulance was waiting to exit the alley and the fool driving hit the horns, (ambulances around here have train horns mounted to clear traffic). I was less than ten feet away. Without missing a beat, I fell to the ground, grabbed my chest and began screaming in pain. (I'm an older fellow). I rolled once and the looked at the terrified driver and started gasping. He jumped out of the ambulance and ran to me, no longer laughing about his prank. Totally panicked. I grabbed him by the collar and pulled his face close to mine and whispered "got ya back". Got up a walked away. Looked back and he was still kneeling in the alley, on the sidewalk, totally stunned, wondering what had happened. I'm still laughing about it. Ah, it's the little things in life ..... What do you need a loud, annoying horn for anyway? My MKX horns piss off everyone just fine.
