  1. Have you checked ebay? Anything used from a local (Azerbaijan) junk yard?
  2. Are you thinking of something like this? http://www.aliexpress.com/item/1993270578.html Possibly this might work: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/1993270578.html
  3. Oh my, you are. Pulling out a key and manually putting it into a slot and then having to turnnnnnn it until the door unlocks, I perish the thought.
  4. Yes. Had a mechanic work one extra hour on a single rear brake once. He finally broke it free with a torch. I paid of course, wasn't his fault and he did what I had took it into him for, new brakes. Your mechanic isn't screwing you, he had to do a lot of extra work to accomplish what you took to car to him for. And who knows how much your aftermarket changes made the job more difficult? You will need to take responsibility for that. It's in alignment now isn't it? He did what he had to do to get it right.
  5. I have only played with Syne 3 once with a loaner, seemed to work simular to my Sync (with a different interface of course). If I understand your question correctly, you are only displaying a limited number of contacts under any given letter. On mine, I need to use the down arrow to display additional contacts if there are more than will fit on a single screen. In your example contacts under "D", all of the D contacts display and stop at "DO". Have you hit the down arrow to display the rest?
  6. There was a discussion about this over in the Ford trucks forum. Fella found that the LED can be replaced. Another describes how to do it yourself. http://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1206592-side-view-mirror-disassembly-leds-stopped-working.html
  7. There's one for the 2015,16 (you didn't specify your year) on Ebay. Item #282098113981
  8. See page 228 of your owner's manual. It limits your car to 2000 lbs. if it didn't come with the factory tow package. Remember to keep your tires properly inflated and change your transmission fluid under the severe category (if not sooner).

    Waving?

    Try driving around New York City, you get waved at all the time.
  10. The usual process is to put the key in & turn it to on.Press the Unlock button three times. Turn the ignition off. Press the Unlock button three more times. Turn the ignition back to on. The horn should beep once. This tells you that you're now in programming mode. Press the unlock button, then press Lock again. The horn will beep once to tell you that Auto Lock was deactivated. It will beep twice if youre reactivating the system. Turn the ignition back to off and listen for the horn to beep one time confirming that the programming was accepted.
  11. Great gas milage, it's rated at 25 highway, unusual to actually get EPA. Do you miss the room of the Explorer or do you find the Edge sufficient?
  12. The 18's will give a smoother ride. I believe this is because the 18's have more sidewall, more tire less wleel. Little better mpg with the 18's as well, but not enough to base a decision on. Measurements between a 15" & 19" shows a 10% drop in mpg with the 19's. 19"s look better, 20's look even better, fills out the wheelwell. 19's will offer a better skidpad due to the extra width.
  13. As an FYI, the blind spot glass came on the 2009 MKX, they switched over mid year. (I changed the glass on mine to get the bsm, never considered going to a complete mirror housing for a later year). Looks good however.
  14. Is that a CH47. Were you air crew?
  15. You instalked a 180° thermostat and the car is maintaining 192°? Shouldn't it be maintaining 180°?
  16. This is interesting, a Porsche that's painted in a special way so that it changes color as you drive. Wild!
  17. Seat moves under spring pressure. Binding or broken spring. Is the seat reclinded?
  18. Try placing the a/c in max position, see if there's any response.
  19. You can also program your own codes (something easy to remember). Programming a Personal Entry Code 1. Enter the factory-set five-digit code. 2. Press 1·2 on the keypad within five seconds. 3. Enter your personal five-digit code. You must do this within five seconds of completing step 2. 4. Press 1·2 on the keypad to save personal code 1. The doors lock then unlock to confirm that programming was successful. To program additional personal entry codes, repeat steps 1 through 3, then for step 4: Press 3·4 to save personal code 2. Press 5·6 to save personal code 3. Press 7·8 to save personal code 4. Press 9·0 to save personal code 5. If your vehicle is fitted with MyFord Touch, you can also program the system with a personal entry code. (Seats, mirrors, etc.)
  20. Why not talk with your service manager, see if they have ever looked into this? There are several other factors that need to take into consideration, seat belt lenghts & angles, side air bags, front air bags, electrical harness length. An inch it possibly two, shouldn't be a problem, four inches would definitely affect the above subsidiary functions.
  21. I second Brian's thinking. My advice would be to avoid all change shops, at all costs. A tranny shop is much more qualified to do this (and more professional). You don't want a kid who was serving burgers last week servicing your PTU.
