  1. So I traded my 2010 limited in for the 2010 sport. A few issues with the Limited I didn't like.

     

    i was told the stereos were identical in each. I was happy because the 2010 limited stereo was great, for a factory stereo.

     

    I picked up the Sport and expected the same. There is a massive difference between the 2. The sport premium is pretty crappy compared to the limited.

     

    So I dug a bit and saw the package in the limited is called Premium sound system II with 9 speakers. The package on the Sport is called Premium sound system with 9 speakers. Notice how the "II" is missing in the Sport version.

     

    Does anyone have the exact specs for these stereos?

     

    I need to know which to fix, amp, speakers, or (hopefully not) everything.

  2. I just got my edge sport 12 days ago, so I don't have a much of a track record with the seats yet. To prevent long term stains, I put two coats of Scotchgard on the inserts. The spray didn't do any harm to the seats, and they have about the same feel they had before; maybe they have a bit more grip now.

     

    Which type of Scotchguard did you use? There are a few, and I am just trying to determine which one. I will probably do a coat every month or so.

  3. I am also having a wind noise issue on the drivers side. It happens at highway speeds (more than 55 mph). There seems to be 2 areas one near the rearview mirror and another at the upper corner of the door near the D column. The noise was not there when I bought the car, after owning it for 6 months the noise has gotten worse. No issue on the passenger side at this point.

     

    After taking mine in 5 times, with 4 road tests so the techs at Ford could hear it as well, the issue was not resolved.

     

    Much to my surprise, they gave me a new Edge Sport. We split the difference in cost.

     

    Now I just need to get this stereo upgraded. I know they are the same stereo, but I swear the one in the Limited sounded better. Any tips on fine tuning the stereo's in these?

  4. I have also noticed wind noise on the driver's side door when driving my 2010 Edge Limited. It almost sounds like my window is slightly open but I can not find any sign of a gap between the top of the window and weatherstripping. The odd thing is that I don't hear it all the time, typically only when I'm on the highway and only at certain times which I have yet to figure out why. Please let me know if you talk to your dealer and they do switch out the door or perform some other procedure to make it stop - it would be greatly appreciated.

     

    No luck, they say they cant hear the noise. They suggested playing the stereo to cover it up. It is only at highway speeds for me as well. Of course that is all I use mine for.

     

    They are trying to say it is a normal noise now. This is a deal breaker for me.

     

    If this noise really is normal, then this is a very poor quality vehicle considering I have never heard wind noise like this on any vehicle, without the window open anyway.

  5. Anyone have this issue.

     

    It is very loud on my new Edge Ltd. The passenger side doors are nice and quiet, but the drivers side is very bad. No noise from the roof.

     

    New weatherstripping = no effect

     

    Door adjustment = no effect

     

    The door doesn't match up evenly with the rear driver side door so, hopefully they will replace the front door and that will be the issue.

     

    Has anyone else noticed Window noise?
