If you are thinking Stop Leak, it will not work. The water has gone past
a seal that protected the bearing full of grease. Well that hot antifreeze/water mixture
at about 180+will de-grease that poor bearing in no time, bearing runs dry, makes noise
so turn radio higher, water pump shaft is now really wobbling, fan into radiator or block.
In other words, it's over.
Big question can you buy a better Edge or car you would trust over what you have for $4000?
Finally got the time to install the rotors and pads I got in June on my ST. Not that hard to do if you have the right tools. The 7mm and 11mm Allen sockets and the 18mm standard socket are not normally found in most tool sets you buy. A 1/2 inch impact wrench is also a good idea to have for the job.
I can't find the thread here, but the idea to use a bolt through the holes for the anchor plate to remove the rotors is spot on. Both front rotors would not budge using a rubber mallet.
I only had time to do the break in. So I cannot comment on how they function yet. The front pads had a lot of life left and the rotors were in pretty good shape. The rear pads were completely worn out and needed to be changed.
I'll report back on how the brakes perform.
Whoa, ho, ho. After reading Omar302's post, I did some more digging. Seems Levittown was wrong. (But not me, of course .... :-)
Here's what I'm finding now;
"ML3Z-19A361-A is the part number for the Ford Perimeter Plus Vehicle Security System, a shock and impact sensor module.
After a simple plug-and-play installation, the module automatically activates with an ignition cycle. Dealer programming is only needed if you want to add the optional remote start feature."
So ill just sit here on the patio, feed the squirrels and hummers, drink my martunies and think happy thoughts.
Let us know if you decide to go ahead and put one in.
I just cleared the codes and ran several RGTM self tests. I am receiving no DTCs during a normal operating cycle or on a cycle when I am getting no action from the liftgate at all, which is the most common pattern after the first normal cycle. When the liftgate "shrugs" I am getting the below DTC:
Code: B1515 - Tailgate/Liftgate/Boot/Trunk
Additional Fault Symptom:
- Commanded Position Not Reachable
I also performed 6 RGTM reboots and the liftgate operated normally after 4 of the reboots and "shrugged' after the other 2. I at least got some sort of response from the liftgate immediately after rebooting the RGTM.
Consider obtaining a copy of TSB 13-6-18. This specifically deals with a current draw due to the remote system keeping the electronics awake. Sometimes it just requires a software reload/update.
As you have isolated the problem to the RF module, there's three possibilities. The module, wiring becoming grounded and a faulty RF hub. Most likely cause is the module has failed. (Shorted wiring would cause the battery to drain much faster & network issues would probably affect several other devices.)
I've read in another forum where it was traced to water entry getting into the module. Caused it to stay on.
2013 Ford Edge with 130,000 MI. Took it in for an oil service and mechanic who I trust is your starting to get a water pump leak which is an expensive repair, 2500. Started looking at alternative sections stop take products with mixed results. Any suggestions?
