Nothing showed up and it hasn't happened again. I'm going to chalk it up to momentary glitch for now.

Had an issue this weekend while driving through Colorado. I went to accelerate and I could push the pedal to the floor and would get no response, no engine rev or anything. I let up a little and tried again, same thing. I had to completely let off the pedal and then it would work fine. It did this twice and never again all the way home to Vegas. I was in sport mode both times and no CEL came on. I haven't had a chance to see if any pending codes have been set. Any thoughts?

http://www.coastaletech.com/synclockpick.htm They have a harness that will work on all Edge years.

Any update?

Well I replaced the cabin filter on my '10 Edge Limited and I must say it was easier on my '08. I ordered the Fram filter with Arm & Hammer part # CF10547 The filter isn't an exact replacement like I thought. You have to remove the filter from the plastic frame that it is enclosed in, then you have to push the filter in the slot paying close attention to a small plastic tab that sticks down. You have to lightly push past the tab and then the filter will go in the spot perfectly. This is the cheapest I could find it. Amazon

Anybody try this yet?

Little late to the party here. Back in Feb we traded our '08 Limited for the '10 Limited. I find the brakes better on the '10. I disagree about the noise I think the '10 is quieter. We do get better MPG also but that was advertised also. Our payments went down $80/mo but we went to 60mo at 0% from 48mo at 3.9% They gave us $21k for the '08 and we only owed $11.5k so 10k was a nice dwn pmt.

I think it's called Easy Entry or something like that to shut off the lights.

I just bought a new 2010 and traded in our 2008 and the first thing I noticed was the brakes were immensely better. I am hoping that this doesn't change as it gets older. On the '08 they were soft from the beginning so I don't know if they will get softer as it gets older. Anybody notice the same thing? And has your brakes got softer or stayed the same?

Thanks

I knew about the hard drive but how does it get updated? On the '08's you would update with a DVD. Guess I didn't word my original question correctly.

Is the Nav in the 2010's DVD based? And if so are they using Navteq on these also? I might be upgrading to a '10 from my '08 and I was just curious how it was done now.

I go by Jpeckinp here. Welcome and have fun learning.

Any luck? I know it's only been a week or so. I haven't taken mine in yet, I started to notice it about a month ago. I really shows up on real cold days and I was hoping to get it fixed once the weather warms up a little.

I haven't scheduled mine yet. I guess I should this week.

Looks like I might be a new victim of the PTU leak. Been noticing a burning smell for a few weeks but wasn't sure if it was me or another car around me. Last few nights I have been at stop lights alone and smell it so I know it's me now. Made it to 27K. Question for those that might know. Is the fluid transmission fluid or is there a special fluid for it and is there a way to check the level?

Lex, You still having problems with the map lights and Plate lights going bad? I have another plate light with 3 of the 5 led's out and a map light that is flashing all the time.

Well with over 20 years building/repairing electronic circuits I know nothing as you say so I won't bother telling you why.

If you would have done a quick search you would have found you need a Cap added on the Edge because Ford uses switched headlights. You can't see it but your lights are switching on and off very fast. It helps increase the life span. The Cap keeps the charge up on the relay by basically acting as a battery in the line to keep the voltage up above a certain point. Most of us only needed 470uF 35V or better to do the trick.

I'll assume you are within the weight limits? Have you considered an extra trans cooler? They are pretty cheap.

Only problem I have is the reflection of sunlight off the vent edges. It reflects right back into my eyes at certain times of the day.
