  1. Driving my 2016 Sport today enjoying the great spring weather with my Pano open. Then the phone rings and I close my roof or should I say attempt to. It gets about 8 inches from closing and automatically starts to open. I ignore the call and pull over, attempt this again no luck. WTF, I had to hold the button and push it closed, not a happy owner right now. My Sport has less than 8K on it and should not have these types of issues. Of course calling the dealer, any experience on how I can get this fixed the first time?
  2. +1 on the puddles... I have the same set and love them, was just out to dinner with another couple as we walked to the cars I unlocked mine then I heard my friends wife say "Honey our Audi doesn't do that" as I heard my wife snicker....
  3. Had the same issue within a week had a single side flickering... I also turned to Amazon as others, I purchased the following https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01E6Z2D04/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Not only no flickers but very bright, looks great at night.

    Appreciate your desire to be the trailblazer here... Would have pulled the trigger on the MRT a longtime ago but you know how it is, always looking for something better...

    Hey Beezz, it has been a few months. I wanted to check in on how the exhaust work is going. Very curious on your plans and if installed what you did, how it sounds and any lessons learned?
  6. Agree with Burrcold - I did this exact thing on my 2016 Sport with the 21 package.
  7. I personally purchased my puddlelights from Drive Bright, I love how they look. You can check out the youtube video on how to install. As a bonus they usually ship a pair of plate LEDs. Nice touch and great customer service.
  8. Be careful as you may not need something as abrasive as compound, you could try something like Chemical Guys VSS or something you can find at your local parts store such as Meguiars Ultimate Polish. Always start with the least aggressive cleaner, you can always go more abrasive.
  9. Hello DBDRVN, Very Interesting.. Would very much like to see any pics or mock ups of what you planning. Having been looking around for something a bit more unique than the Plasti Dip etc... Not saying that there is anything wrong with that..

    Beezz, plz post your outcome. I am also considering an exhaust change and not sure I want to pull the trigger on the MRT, cost and sound the youtube videos are not the best... I had a phone consultation with a custom shop, while informative I didn't come way feeling good. It seems most of their work is V8 centric, not any ecoboost work. If you do the install, I would be interested in what your final design was and your thoughts.
  11. I use a foam cannon and a pressure washer to wash my Edge, followed by a two bucket wash, after good rinse. I then use a Worx WG520 to blow the water out of every crack and crevice. My Edge is covered in Sonax PolyNet Shield so the water flies off with the blower, if I do need to wipe with a MF I use a list mist of Meguiar's Synthetic Spray wax as a lubricant.
  12. Interesting enough I shopped all the sites on the web and found what I thought was the best deal. Before I pulled the trigger I called the dealership where I purchased and talked to my sales guy, wanted to give them on last shot. We discussed this during the sales process as well as with the F&I guy but the price wasn't right. I received a call back about 10 mins later and was offered a premium package with the same features as I priced on the web for $125 less than my best quote. I was honestly surprised and impressed. I guess the morale of the story give your dealer a chance to earn your business, you may be surprised.
  13. Could you elaborate on distinctive? Is it loud, sound obnoxious, like a civic with a trash can hanging from underneath? ?
  14. GJB, are you still running the Magnaflow? If so any comments?
  15. Hello all! I am considering a new exhaust for my Sport. I have researched what I can, as we all know not alot of options :-(. I am asking for any first hand experience with or even secondhand. I am very interested in opinions on the sound of the exhaust, I know it's a 6/turbo not a V8 so sound is subjective. I do not want any drone or excessive noise, but wouldn't mind being noticed (just a little) I have been looking at the MRT but the YouTube videos aren't a good judge. Thanks in advance. Titan01
  16. Welcome RedEdge, love the color. I also recently become a proud owner of a 16 Sport, mine is in Platinum White. Hope you enjoy it as much as I am.
  17. Welcome, great looking Edge. Awesome to see that we are worldwide.
  18. Ford November 2016 Sales Crush Estimates, Up 5%. Edge sales improved by 32.2% in the month and are now 7.1% higher year to date.
  19. Actually I was referring to a Ford Premium Care ESP from Flood Ford. Sorry if I wasn't clear.
  20. Yes, Flood is the least expensive I have found. I have a call into them requesting a bit more info. Their site looks a bit second rate compared to Lombard, although low overhead may allow the lower cost.
  21. Looking at purchasing an extended warranty for peace of mind... I have a quote from Lombard for 6years/100K for the Premium Care Package that I think is fair, especially when comparing with 3rd parties like Charchex. I have looked at other Ford ESP Dealers the only less than Lombard seems to be Flood but they don't offer the 0% financing which is attractive. A few questions - Has anyone purchased an ESP from Lombard any comments? Does anyone have other suggestions other than Lombard, Flood, Champion, Ziegler? Thank you in advance, Titan01
  22. +1 on the look of the wheels, very nice. I arrived home to find my new winters sitting in my driveway. I need to prep the rims with a few coats of Rim Wax and then they will go on. I will update with pics...
  23. You can also try Discount Tire Direct, the guys know their craft. I am a longtime Tire Rack customer and they do a great job, in the past few years I have been using DTD they have competitive prices. They also offer free shipping and tons of rebates if you use their Credit Card (not a big fan of that practice) but they also offer 9months 0 interest...It is great to have choices.
