  1. I directly emailed EBC so it's legit, I talked to someone on the phone from that site as well and they said the same thing EBC said.
  2. I felt the same way, the pads totally let me down more than a few times. I'm getting these for the EDGE & CX-7 when they're available for purchase. Tires and the fluid play a big role in stopping but I've gotten the stock pads to fade way too quickly. Redstuff is can be nothing but an improvement over stock. I think the brake dust on yours might be related to the color of your wheels.
  3. That's right, the Ford EDGE's brakes SUCK something awful and now there is an excellent replacement for them, EBC Redstuff/Greenstuff pads. I just emailed them because it's been in their parts list for a while but they've never been made and now they are. These brake pads will dust less and stop much more effectively than the stock pads, the biggest thing I hate about them is the fade, and luckily these pads will almost never fade. They will be 89 for the Front and Rear with the Redstuff, the Greenstuff should be slightly cheaper. Again, these will no doubt give you the braking power that we all need and expect. Redstuff is a street sport and Greenstuff is a less aggressive street pad. With the girth of the EDGE/MKX/CX-9, I'd get the Redstuff pads. These will fit the Mazda CX-7, CX-9, EDGE & MKX. Look around at perfectbrakes.com for them.
  4. You need to take it to a different dealer, they're clearly not doing something right.
  5. I was really interested in these until I found this out.. have you gotten a refund yet? I would call your CC company if you happened to use one just to make sure you get your money back.
  6. You would have to replace the whole front clip, bumper, hood (probably), fenders, etc.
  7. I like it, I still see a lot of room for improvement, but I'd buy an0 09 sport again over most of the stuff out now, even the new Murano, it's too ugly, and WAY expensive now.
  8. Take a look at Enclaveforums/Acaida/outlook... they're people with transmission issues
  9. Very comparo. C/D clearly slanted everything to shine on the Murano, it's a nice ride no doubt but the critiziums on all the other cars in that comparo is where they shined the light on the Murano. I agree.. too much hard plastic. But everything else is serene, the ride, quiteness, lighting, BAMR. I test drove an exact 04 Mo, and although body lean was kept incheck it just felt too heavy, the Edge I have (07 SEL+) has body lean but it doesn't feel so top heavy, off the line the CVT really saps the acceleration, at least the first gen Mo's acceleration. Welcome!
  10. Welcome! It handles way better when it's dropped, and like the Mustang you can get a flashtuner and squeeze out some extra HP.
  11. I would personally go with Pennzoil Platinum Full-Synthetic 5W-30, change it at 4K, there really is no reason to do it sooner than when the manual states.
  12. Not sure if it is swappable, or if it would even be worth it, but you should be able to swap one right out of a 2009 EDGE, if you have an 08 (SYNC). I don't see why not, but the Nav is a Sony now? So maybe not, if they changed the harness, you may have to hardwire it in.
  13. Really it's just inadequate, there isn't anything wrong with it. With the BAMR, glass, and just the greenhouse of the EDGE really needs a A/C unit that blows freezing cool air. I always run the A/C on recirc.
  14. You should be able to buy a Sirius kit from your dealer that works with the stock brick H/U.
  15. That is NOT a crossover, it's a wagon! (YES the EDGE is on a car platform but it looks like an SUV which is what a crossover is based upon) That said, it looks NOTHING like a crossover, it looks EXACTLY like a wagon.
  16. You also have to consider the cabins are much smaller, and will draw in less heat. That said the A/C is sucky if you're trying to just jump in and cool the car down, you really have to let it air out first. The BAMR really helps with that.
  17. Any good bodyshop would be able to do this for you.
  18. Wow that looks horrible, they need to practice a little (ok, a LOT) of R&D. At least you got your money back. Ford should have an OEM one, more expensive I bet.
  19. I'm on Firefox 3.0. I hate IE, so tacky. I usually use my macbook though. I'm in love with Firefox 3.0.
  20. The EDGE feels huge when I jump out of it and into the CX-7, I sat in an Acadia( wow the panel alignment was worse than in my EDGE ) and it also had a smaller feel to it. The EDGE has an airy feeling to make people feel smaller or for wider frames I guess.
  21. Putting MP3 or whatever file the SYNC system accepts onto a thumbdrive has nothing to do with what operating system put them there.
  22. Because the pricing and second row room is comparable. The CX-7 has no Ford competition in the USA, not the EDGE, not the Escape, not the Flex, nothing. The CX-9 VS EDGE is not stupid because clearly people are comparing the two.
  23. Then why compare the two?
