    • Don't know the difference between the two. Probably the  length.    Anyway, there's a H2GZ-14A411-B listed on Ebay (UK) for £29.71.    https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/135285761035
    • What happened to your rear springs requiring their replacement? Did you overload?
    • The reason for the higher torque on the 2024 Edge is because it uses larger diameter M14 studs (as compared to the smaller M12 studs found on older Edges and most sedans.)   The main reason for the higher torque is because of the weight of the 2024 Edge. This  weight requires more force for the wheel to be held to the hub to prevent slipping during for extreme maneuvers like emergency  braking.    According to published figures, the average weight of a 2024 Ford Edge is 4,122 to 4,525 pounds. (A 2007 Edge averaged 4,073 to 4,282 pounds.) These are "curb weights", to which you must add passengers and their junk. Add high speed on a tight curve and that's a lot of force being restrained on those lugs.   If I'm not mistaken, I believe that its the same specification as on the F150.   It's extremely important to use a torque wrench when mounting the wheels. Failure to get even pressure across the brake rotor surface will almost certainly cause warping of the brake rotors.             
    • I read one time that the reason it's so high is because the wheel is aluminum and the lugs are steel and the two don't grip each other well. 
    • I made a funnel out of a liter soda bottle, it assists greatly when using the OEM funnel. The bottle neck fits snugly into the filter and makes it much easier if you are pouring in any amount. 
    • r some reason my search didn't find all the alternative sources tht appeared in the link shown in an earlier post.  It turns out there at least two sizes.  The one I had purchased earlier whic his dark gray was too big.  One listing described it as for Ford Diesel vehicles.  I think the diesel pumps at service stations have larger diameter dispenser nozles.  A safety feature that prevents accidently trying to put diesel fuel into a gasoline vehicle.  A better Google search led me to an identically shaped yellow plastic funnel at Advance Auto Parts.  I went to the Advance store about a mile from my house and purchased one.  I tried it in my vehicle and it fit just fine.  It cost only $2.99.  Advance carried the larger version but didn't stock it in the store.   Mystery solved. I'll keep the correctly sized yellow one in my 2016 Edge.  Thanks for all the help. In the future I will get gas before I see the "low gas" warning on the display.   Paul in Texas
    • Bite the bullet and get OEM. I use my funnel regularly to add a fuel additive (Startron) before every fill up. Of course I have lost a couple of them over the years. But they are the only way to get fuel into the vehicle in an emergency. Trust me, 20 bucks is nothing when you need/depend on it.
    • On a 2007 Edge rain leaking onto the driver's side is most likely due to one of three common areas.  1. a faulty windshield seal 2. clogged sunroof drains or 3. a blocked air conditioning drain.    A known issue on the 2007 is the windshield adhesive can fail due to age, which causes  the seal to slide and allow rain to soak the floor. It appears that you have addressed this. Clogged Sunroof Drains:   If your Edge has a sunroof, if the sunroof drains get clogged, water can overflow into the headliner and down the pillars to the driver's floor.   Blocked A/C Drain is a common problem. When clogged, water can back up and leak near the gas pedal on the driver's side.   Also, worn or loose weatherstripping around the driver's door can allow water to seep in during heavy rain. 
    • Who boy, whats the best oil... argument. There are so many.  But here's a YouTube video I'd recommend.     
    • This is the one I bought (for a different purpose, I don't have the capless fuel fill on my MKX.)  Excellent quality and is reported to fit the Edge.    Manufacturer advertises it's an "exact replacement" for the original Ford part number 8U5A-17B068-AD. $5   https://a.co/d/05R4gxEMexact replacement" for the original Ford part number 8U5A-17B068-AD.
