broncomitch Posted May 13, 2014 Report Share Posted May 13, 2014 We where looking at edge's for the wife's new car but found a 07 lincoln MKX that we liked better. It has it's fare share of problems but it's sound. Has heated and cooling seat, Air bags all around, The THX radio setup with navigation (will it play DVD's?) Back up sensors Ect. The bad, it has the after market sun roof, (won't open all the way,is that normal?) It's AWD so the PTU seals are leaking a little bit. And a few paint chips. And it was a little cold this morning and it had a good "tick" it sounds like it has a exhaust gasket leaking cus it went away after it warmed up. Other then that all seems good.

I think the Nav will play CDs under certain conditions - not while the car is moving is one of them. Maybe someones who knows the facts can chime in, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lincwitsync Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 Welcome. The way I understand it, you can only use the Navigation player as a DVD player if you have that specific head unit installed. Lincoln used a few head units in these cars. I believe MKXs with the "entertainment package" have the screens in the back of the front seat headrests. If you have the entertainment package, DVDs will not play up front in any gear other than park. If your MKX does not have the DVD playback unit, then your head unit will only acknowledge the Navigational Data Discs. I have the Navigation THX system without DVD. I tried to play a movie in disbelief. After installing the disc, the entire unit froze for about 4-5 minutes. I panicked thinking I messed up my stereo and then the DVD ejected by itself. As for the cold engine tick, mine has always had a slight cold tick. My ticking goes away soon after it warms up. MKX Guide 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
