  1. I'd use a UV protectant on the emblem. 303 is the best. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0185PU38A/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabc_HBJ9FbGAF2MF1?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
  2. I also had the dealer do mine at 90k maintenance interval. Won't tell you what I paid (heh, heh, heh).
  3. You're going to get a lot of responses on this. What I did years ago, go to Tirerack.com and look at the highest rated tires. Then read the reviews. Now, most of the reviews on this site are for tires with 5k or less. Not very indicative of long term. Then I went to Amazon, looked up the best of Tirerack.com, and read the reviews. These reviews covered not just new, but 50k miles. I ended up going with Bridgestone Deulers. Michelin is very quite and smooth, but only last for 20k (they use different rubber in the tread, soft for 20k the hard to reach the 40k life). I've had Michelin and they do dramatically change after 20k. As the reviews state. Nice thing about Bridgestone is consistent over their lifetime. Have Scorpion's on wife's car and their also great. Really quiet and smooth. Can't vouch for life as she doesn't put a lot of miles on car and being a Convertible, fairly lightweight. (Tires last longer on lighter vehicles).
  4. Inasmuch as air pressure in a tire drops 1 psi for each decline of 10° F . 30 psi at 70°F will drop to 26 psi at 30°F. I'd say 32 psi would be a good compromise and still stay above the trigger alarm.
  5. Try rotating the bulbs and reinsert. LED hot spot may be hitting point of focus off-center.
  6. Really beautiful pup. Whats his/her name? How old? Car's nice too. (lol)
  7. Yup. Noticed it right after I posted and the page refreshed. (Sigh).
  8. USB bus has a max power requirement. Was there anything else plugged into any other USB port? Other than that, my second guess is a defective flash drive.
  9. $160/ea https://www.hubcapzone.com/frd800x.html?gclid=Cj0KCQiA0MD_BRCTARIsADXoopYK7vOmFg3jyCudDKwNZP5kdDNsGZ3nZNtudmB0b073msjJmgDGId0aAgNeEALw_wcB
  10. You're going to love it. I've had a Craftsman 5 gal wet/dry wall mount for years and have found it to be very convenient. Only complaint is the price of filters. Bissell is excellent quality. Should last many years.
  11. Do you want to feel like a magician? If you’re too far from your car for your key fob to work, try using your head as a personal satellite. Yes, really. Your body’s fluids can extend the wireless signal from your key fob to the parked car. Just put your car key fob under your chin, open your mouth, and push the button on your keychain.
  12. When I hit a curb and blew out the sidewall on my right front, I just called Lincoln and they sent out a tow truck. He changed my tire in the driving rain. (No cost). Did have to buy a new tire, but that's life. Can't repair a blown sidewall with an inflator or patch kit. (I do carry a Ford inflator and goo kit, but have no plans to ever use it).
  13. I checked mine last spring and it was flat (0 psi). Took it in and it turned out to be a broken inflation valve. Wonder how many people check their tires and overlook thd spare?
  14. AFAIK, the trailer tow connector is just an extension off the existing lighting harnesses. 1. Does your parking and license plate lights work? Yes, go to 2. No. Check that fuse in the SJB. 2. Does the turn signals/brake lights work? No. Check that fuse. Yes. The problem traces back to the SJB.
  15. Plenty available on Ebay. One example (there are less expensive choices): https://www.ebay.com/itm/2007-2008-FORD-EDGE-AUDIO-SPEAKER-SUBWOOFER-7T4T-18C804-AD-/203216134835?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49292 Here's one for a MKX for $78. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Lincoln-MKX-Rear-Subwoofer-Speaker-2007-2008-2009-2010-/133363896595?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49292
  16. Does it lock/unlock with the FOB? (Assuming you were talking about the interior lock/unlock switches). If you 'were' talking about the FOB, try the interior switches.
  17. Not necessarily. Just use an electronic contact cleaner on it. This what I've used with good success. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000BXOGNI/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabc_Y8s7FbAKJ72B4
  18. If you have two FOBs, try switching to the other key. Its possible the FOB is at fault.
  19. I found switching to Phillips X-tremeVision bulbs was the best choice for halagen lights. These fit my car (for brights), believe you use a different bulb. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01C5QY7DW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabc_Ik86FbWFWPCC1?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
  20. Probably popped a fuse. Check #63 in the box in the engine compartment.
  21. I'd suspect either a defective camera or corrosion on the connector.
  22. Been seen before. Fix was to disconnect the battery for 15 minutes. (Believe they thought it was the BCM).
  23. I know Oakville was closed last spring for several weeks, may have been what the sales agent was referring to. Inasmuch as they are still building 2020s, that would explain the push back of thr 2021 models. Thanks for the info. I'm more interested in the Nautilus but agent had no info on lincoln, only Edge.
  24. Talked to my local dealer today and they have been told March, 2021. Plant was/is closed due to COVID-19. Dealer was also told March for the F150 and they got one last week with a couple more coming this week. (Certain models, others still no information as to when. Don't remember which as no interest). They also said they talked to their rep last week and he didn't have any information as to when the plant would start shipping either the Edge or Nautilus. Did try to push the 2020s on the lot. (smile)
