Been lurking and getting advice from this forum since I purchased a used 2011 Lincoln MKX back in November. Really like the car, but due to its age, it has its quirks and this forum has been fantastic. Thanks for having me. I hope I can contribute as time goes by!

Hello, I am new here and I have tried to do a little searching online as well as on this forum. I wanted to know if the K&N High Performance Air Intake System 77-2574KS will also fit on the 2008 Lincoln MKX with AWD. I know it will fit the 2008 Ford Edge with AWD, but I want to make sure that it would fit on the MKX before I try to buy it. I have also seen the Weapon-R Short Ram Intake, but if possible, I would much rather use the boxed in K&N Cold Air Intake.

how to replace main fuse & its location how to replace compartment fuse & its location how to check for power seat issues If you have any queries do ask in the comments. Hope it was helpful

Hello All, I just got a 2008 Lincoln MKX AWD from a dealer last month (At 200k KMs I expect it to have some minor issues) and then I noticed some things, which I surely need help with. When I lift the tailgate, the gives a loud thud noise whenever it gets to the top. When reversing, I have noticed like five times now that the car goes into neutral and It won't move at all... I will have to put it into Drive, move forward a bit and put it back in reverse before it works... This morning, it happed twice before leaving the garage. Whenever I make a turn to either side (at a junction or stop sign), I would hear a cranking noise (which increases as i try to force increase speed - probably from the tires) and to reduce the noise, I had to release the pedal and at times, I would have to park for like 3 seconds before continuing. I am wondering if it is the hub that is causing this or something else. Any input would be highly appreciated. Regards

I have a 2016 MKX that I believe has a bad rear mirror motor. I have purchased the new motor, but need advice removing the mirror glass to access the mirror motor. I have searched everywhere, but have only found a video that essentially forces the mirror off by reaching behind it and pulling on some clips. I can't really get my fingers behind the mirror glass, and am afraid to force it off the clips for fear of breaking the glass, which is available but very expensive. Does anyone have advice on how to remove the mirror glass to get access to the motor?

SSM 47240 – 2016-2017 Various Vehicles – SYNC 3 Navigation Map Updates Map Upgrades are now available for 2016-2017 Ford and Lincoln vehicles built with SYNC 3 Navigation. The navigation map upgrade for SYNC 3 systems is accomplished with a Universal Serial Bus (USB) drive. The USB drive will need to contain the map data along with the Map License file; both of these files are required to complete the update. The USB drive required to perform map updates can be ordered from the Ford Electronic Service Group on the PTS OASIS Home page on-line 1878 form. The SYNC 3 navigation map upgrade is currently offered as a customer pay upgrade (non warrantable) and a dealer only installation. This navigation map upgrade only covers US/Canada/Mexico.

Hey My Lincoln was parked for a few months, battery went dead. I removed it, had it charged and reinstalled. All is well. My sync screen comes on, it says "Performing Scheduled Maintenance..." the progress bar goes to 90%ish and just freezes. Tried removing battery terminal/fuse, radio comes on and If I use the steering wheel controls I can set stations, Sirius Sat., usb drives I plug in play. Volume and all other button work fine also. All while the screens stays at 90%. The web site won't let me re-download the update. Says it was done in May of 2011 to Gen2 v2.8 BT4T-14D544-BJ. Not possible to pair / use phone at all. But, While the progress bar is completing I can hit the screen a few time and the home button pops up on the bottom. No text on any labels, but I can select a different screen mode and it changes to my custom wallpaper I had set. Once the progress bar reachs its freeze point at roughly 90% the home button becomes unresponsive. Anyone have/know where I can re-download the appropriate update file to try before I bring it too the dealer. Thanks James

Okay, so Ive tried digging around the forum and saw something similar but not exactly what I need. I purchased a 2011 Edge Limited earlier this year and quickly noticed that there were other similar (2011-2014) Edge's with different side mirrors installed. My Edge currently has the "bigger" side mirrors with the blind spot mirrors and heated functionality. My question is...Can I swap the side mirrors from my Edge with the newer side mirrors with turn signals (less BLIS) and heated functionality? Thanks in advance! Also, just traded in my wife's '12 MKS w/Ecoboost (Sadly) for a 2013 MKS and hers has the mirrors I want (Expect I don't need the BLIS feature) and that has made me want the mirrors on my Edge even more!
