  1. i am having the same problem. cannot get it to re- pair blue tooth does not seem to work. tried re installing update no help. any other suggestions?
  2. My dealer used the 'live with it' line also. I was totally frustrated with the service department, but gratified when the new car sales manager came out to listen and had never heard it before. He called the 'FSE' Field Service Engineer who claimed it to be within normal operating range for this vehicle. I took it to another dealer for a second opinion, and was told the same thing. It was a Mercury dealer and they added that it is quieter in the MKX because that is a luxury vehicle. OK...$35,000.00 is no longer a luxury vehicle. Guess I missed that memo. Call ford corporate and complain. Keep calling to see if there is a Technical Service Bulletin yet. The only way it can get addressed is if enough of us stay with it. It is all about numbers. This is the pump ford uses and until enough of us let them know it is not acceptable for all of us, we are left cranking the stereo and wearing earplugs. Other than that...love the car.
  3. I am going to cross post here. Read the any one have a whining noise? on the 08Edge and MKX board. We all seem to be talking about the same thing.
  4. i agree with you on the vista roof rattle or noise when it is real cold out. I have what sounds like the same 08 fwd edge, and it has been cold in Chicago. I do not want to close the cover or whatever it is called to muffle it. I like the light that comes in thru the roof window. My advice on the fuel pump whine...is complain. It is real loud on my car and it will only get adressed by ford if enough people complain at their dealer and get them to contact a field service engineer. Once they get enough negative feed back they will work on a fix and get out a TSB (technical service bulletin) Until that happens, we all have to live with it or sell our vehicles. I would like to find out the make of the pump in there now and find out if there is a different manufactured part i could have put in. So far no one seems to know. Bottom line, I love this car and do not want to give up, but feel like I am taking on a giant.
  5. hi...i am new to this board. ifound it when i was researching the high pitch whine i hear in my newly purchased 2008 edge. i have taken it it numerous times as it is very annoying and to the point where my ears ring for quite some time after i drive it. the mechanics at the dealer do not hear it, but the new car sales manager was shocked when i got him out in my car. now he can hear it all the time over the music and fans and everything. i have called ford customer service and they encouraged me to go on the boards and request all of you on the boards to call them to report that you can hear this also. it, as of right now is what is considered a normal noise for the fuel pump to make but most people cannot hear the frequency or pitch that this is. they explained that they cannot do anything without enough people reporting it. if you cannot hear it and your kids can...believe them. it is there and unfortunatly, going to force me to sell at a great loss the car i wanted nothing more than to love.
