    MPG??????

    I guess NO ONE gets worse millage than mine in city is about 20~23L/100KM (40L at pump, 178KM odo), so 10~11 MPG here. Any thoughts?
  2. So far I've found and fixed rattle from three different area in my 07' SEL with BAMR. I hope these information can be helpful to anyone who bothering by those noise. 1. Rattling around rear sunroof area, caused by loosed hook&loop tape that holding rear sunroof ring/frame (whatever you call it). Fixed by CA glue or other thin but strong adhesives. TSB has this one listed too. 2. BAMR rattling, not very loud but you can tell it's there. Mine caused by dried sunroof aluminum/rubber rails, can be fixed by lube aluminum with white lithium grease and silicone spray the rubber rails. 3. Door ratting, can happen to all four doors, sometime you think the noise was from B pillar area or roof. Caused by dried door strike, any grease works but again white lithium grease works very well. We all love Edge especially when its noise free. :shades: ug.
  3. Just want to report back, the noise JUST GONE!!! I silicone sprayed the all door strikes fixed the problem. I'll apply some white silicone grease tomorrow. :yahoo:
  4. Lol, nice try http://www.freepatentsonline.com/4077490.html I think turn signal fluid is a joke, otherwise post a link from Wikipedia. And now, :backtotopic: :backtotopic: ug.
  5. Muffler is secure, tire air pressure were adjusted by dealer at service. What is turn signal fluid? Never heard of it. ug.
  6. So after 2 hours in the garage, noise is still there (somewhere). I lubed the all the seals around the windows, tight up the screws, nothing seems helps. Too bad I don't have someone can help to identify the source of noise, but at least I know the noise is NOT coming from the BAMR in my case. :do what: ug.
  7. Nice to know I'm not alone. I've check the rear seatbelts but turned them around or locked into buckle didn't make any difference. My car was totally silent until it reached 8000KM. BAMR did made the noise sometime due to the loosed black plastic frame of rear moonroof, I fixed that by CA glued them. I'll check the screw of B pillar cover see if they were loosed. ug.
  8. My Edge is about 12000 KM now, but I've found some rattle like noise around front roof/B pillar (aka central pillar) area at both sides (driver side is little worse) when I brake/turn or over speed bumps. I can't tell the exactly where the noise coming from and it's not like metal to metal kind rattle. Very annoying, very Korean-made-alike...... :banghead: Anyone else has same problem? ug. Oops,, can admin please move this thread to 'Interior' please. :-P
  9. Glued it. That's how I fixed mine, just few drops of CA glue you will never have it come off again. :P
  10. I think you mean 14~15L/100KM. IF you got 14-~15KM/L that's about 6~7L/100KM. :shades: Mine is 15~17L/100KM in city w/o A/C.
  11. I don't have any problem driving AWD Edge in 1Ft deep snow in Banff, AB with stock tire early this year in our honeymoon trip. Wheel just never stuck at all. :D :D
  12. SALEENS7, Have you seen anything like these at the wheel dealership?
  13. This shoot just looks like Porsche Cayenne. :P
  14. Wheel cleaner spray, you can get it from any auto part store/wal-mart. Never use anything contents polishing compounds on chrome wheel, they'll cause the damage. I use Orange Blast All-Wheel Cleaner, cheap but works like a charm. :D
