  1. Nicely done, congrats on the CMax! 41 mpg is a sweet treat Post some pics of your new ride, as well as keep us updated on your impressions of it over time.
  2. That feeds clean air from the intake into the crankcase (positive pressure) that helps push vapors out the PCV valve and back into the combustion chamber on the other side. So I'd personally leave the tube there, but if you still want to proceed, no significant harm should come of using a breather on the valve cover end instead, don't plug it. You can plug the connection on the intake end though. I'd definitely make sure the PCV valve is replaced at or before the 100K mark for spark plug changes. Don't want it clogged even a little bit if you are doing the breather mod.
  3. The attachment in this post may be helpful to you: http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/12503-installing-rear-springs/?do=findComment&comment=96941
  4. Since I have no idea how this is accomplished on the Edge, my shot in the dark would be that the electronics are thinking the trailer is still attached. So I'd check the hitch connections carefully, and the wiring as much as you can (including for shorts/high resistance, etc.). The other item is possible reception of an automatic MFT update. Any other changes noticed? EDIT: As omar pointed out, it is a default setting, apparently one in reponse to govt requirements, per this post: http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showpost.php?p=2738099&postcount=11 http://www.nhtsa.gov/DOT/NHTSA/Rulemaking/Rules/Associated%20Files/ESC_FR_03_2007.pdf Federal Vehicle Safety Standards ESC_FR_03_2007.pdf
  5. Good catch! I guess they were running short of letters for their Scrabble games. Definition of this "global" word.
  6. Welcome to the forum, congrats on the '10 Edge! AWD/FWD? Previous/other rides?
  7. Videos to be seen under a separate pseudonym, folks!
  8. I am sure Ford worked out a bulk rate for rentals, but yeah, it's hard to get a feel for the how or why of this situation.
  9. Just throwing this out there ... problems with the ETB have been noted with the 2007-10 Edge as well according to this thread. http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/3835-idle-speed-fluctuations/
  10.

    Enjoy the journey as well as the destination! Post some pics along the way, if you can
  12. Sounds like another winning dealership to me! Glad it worked out for you, dbomb. The BG service is shop-specific, not Ford-related. Some dealers will provide this service some won't. Consider yourself lucky to have this service available at your dealer
  13. No shame in it, if you're game, we're game
  14. Nice work, Jake! Too bad your work has to be obscured by that Illinoisean license plate though ... The sidebyside comparo will be cool!
  15. Certainly ONE solution, better than no solution, but sometimes finding a substitute is difficult if you bough the vehicle for value. If your vehicle is practically new, then I can see ending up even or close to it. If your vehicle is a few years old, like mine, it takes time to locate one in that price range again. Quite a bit of effort and heartache likely involved. So if a recall is issued, fix the problem, please. Don't take the vehicle away from the owner for an indefinite amount of time as a way to weary them into compliance. Now THAT is big corporation/govt tactics with teeth bared and claws out.
  16. No you haven't. Say it again, please
  17. Didn't get the bulb pack with, as I already had my own LED backup lights, and didn't want to fuss with the front turn signals (yet). You can enjoy Dan's YT channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCt4yGVOM4lkdGJ4EeNJZcUQ
  18. Luckily for you, IF that coil is the only problem, it is the middle one of the 3 right up front. Should be a snap to replace. You MIGHT need a rubber boot if the old one is in bad shape, though, and that part should be available from the dealer. Anyhoo, you should start with pulling codes first to see if any misfires etc are occurring before you get on the parts replacement roulette wheel. If you don't have a reader, any major auto parts store should be able to grab 'em for you.
  19. Good products, I have their '07-'10 taillight set installed, buy buy buy
  20. Welcome, craigtaz, congrats on your '14 Edge! How about some pics of that fabulous new ride
  21. Tough situation, dshamer, best you can hope for ATM is the dealership will honor their word to you. So be proactive and keep an eye on the condition of your vehicle. The moment you see any of the symptoms of a major issue in the near future, call it in.
