What have you done to/with your Edge/MKX today?
enigma-2 replied to WWWPerfA_ZN0W's topic in Accessories & Modifications
I could easily see the suv, it was his brake lights that were nearly invisible. Besides being a safer issue I wonder if it wouldn't be a legal issue. FMVSS has mininum brightness requirement. His was well under. (He was running really cheesy rims as well). -

Dusk. Should have been easy to see the lamps. -

I was driving behind a SUV today (don't remember the brand) and nearly rear-ended the guy. He had put dark tint over his stop/turn lamps and I never seen his lights until I was about 5-10 ft away. Barely visable. -
I need to get a module and Forescan and play a bit. Sounds interesting. I had to have my drl turned on at the dealer, think it's a little safer driving that way. If your open to recommdations, consider a set of Weathertech floor mats and cargo mat. A little expensive but top quality and the do an excellent job of protecting the carpeting through the winter slush (if your in an area where there's snow and rain).

Another YouTube video with a different fix.

Bet your happy! If your like most of us, you will learn to love your Edge more and more every day. What did you modify with Forscan?

Chris, I sympathize with you completely. From a personal standpoint I have 100% confidence in my car. The moment that drops below complete confidence, I start looking for answers. There is nothing more important to a man than his family. A dad will sacrifice anything, everything, for his wife and especially his kids; and their safety is more important than anything else. There are so many dangers while driving a car, the last thing a father needs is to not feel his car is 10p% safe. That said, I'm certain your dealer will find the problem and restore your trust.

Was reading about testing done there that found some of the cans were essentially worthless while the RX cough up to 90-95%. Site: http://themustangsource.com/forums/f726/oil-catch-can-comparison-test-results-531966/ I would imagine that the location of the catch pan is important as they need to be emptied periodically.

Ive noticed mine being off by a few meters at times while driving, always seems to self-correct. Assumed this occured when it switching satellites and was recalculating. By being off by several km would indicate it was only locked on to 2 or 3 satellites. Could always stop and get into the test mode and check to see what satellites the system was actually locking on to.

I wear American Optical Pilot Aviator Sunglasses (non-polarized glass version). Was thinking, the instrument cover is a textured, matt finish, might make a difference if one were to use conditioner and turn it shinny. Not certain as to what my detailer uses, but it seems to last and not shinny.

I happened to remember this post while we were on a day trip this last Saturday and made a special point to look for glare. Have a 2009 MKZ and have to say, I have no glare no matter what angle the sun took to the car. Do see a weak reflection of the top of the instrument cluster, but it's not really objectionable. Don't know what difference there is between the Edge and MKX; or the 09 and the 08 or 07, but they seem to have gotten it right in the 09.

Noticed a strange map behavior this weekend. On my 09 mkx, I have three views that I can choose for the nap. One with "north up", one with "car up" and one that's "3D" (sort if). Anyway, wife notice that we were driving on the wrong road, map was showing we were on the next road over from the actual road. For the heck of it, I switched from the "car up" view to the "north up" and ... bingo ... fixed! Switched back to "car up" and we were magically transported back to the other road. Weird. Anyway, others have reported problems with the navigation display, if you are having this type of problem, try switching the view and see if it self-corrects.

Isn't that the 2020 Ford prototype where the body is made from transparent aluminum, stronger than helium and glows in the dark? Heard the engine is made out of plastic and powered by a fusion reactor. Wonder if Ford will able to get the door switches to work by then?

Sorry about reviving such an old thread. My pass rear turn signal bulb burnt out and I thought I replace both (as when one me goes, the other is also probably as worn.) Reason I'm posting is, both sockets looked like new, no evidence of burning or overheating. Bulb is 3057K. (09 MKX).

Yup, makes one wonder what the 2018 palladium trim will include.

You would think that the system would default to something similar to a "non-active" system when a fault occurs. Making the car un-drivable when a fault occurs is completely unacceptable as every electronic component WILL (eventually) fail. .

Can you disable it by pulling fuse 71?
-
Could also add in the additional cost of larger tires.
