Collision Warning System
WWWPerfA_ZN0W replied to Red2149's topic in Alarms, Keyless Entry, Locks & Remote Start
Have there been any software updates for the Fusion related to this sensor, akirby? -
Welcome & congratulations on the new Edge! Details/pics? Plenty to read on here, and participation is always welcome

About to install HIDS into my girlfriends 2007 MKX - DIY?
WWWPerfA_ZN0W replied to Andrew Abalos's topic in 2007 Edge & MKX
Let there be light, yeah -
WeatherTechs, no question! I was lucky to snag a used set. Husky would be my second choice.

2015 Ford Edge Concept Introduced
WWWPerfA_ZN0W replied to robertlane's topic in Articles, News & Reviews
With the shortened cycle this MY (end of March, was it?), it is entirely possible that the Jan '14 show will reveal the production model, albeit with a few minor "show only" tweaks. I just hope that color from the concept vehicle makes it into production. If they do go all-Ecoboost, hopefully the MKX will get a larger EB version, or at least a V6 naturally aspirated version. The V6 MUST survive! Wouldn't be totally against a small displacement V8 either -
LOL. Your good deeds far outweigh these "oversights", so not to worry
-
Ok, I stand corrected. Regardless, a PCM/coil problem should still be covered under her warranty, and that's the important thing
-
She did say "2010 AWD" as thread title ... I think the problem with coils/PCM made Ford extend the warranty out to 80,000 miles? In which case this should be covered (wouldn't that be great!). Thanks for mentioning that, ls973800!

What have you done to/with your Edge/MKX today?
WWWPerfA_ZN0W replied to WWWPerfA_ZN0W's topic in Accessories & Modifications
Low humidity around AZ at this time, Prinzll? Hope you feel 110% soon! Looked at my Edge today, saw just how MUCH salt there is to be had on our roads, even tho they LOOK clean & dry. -
Door latch! Lubricating the latch has helped some folks for sure. Preferably with an electronics-safe cleaner if not opening up the door panel.
-
Turning in either direction produce the sound? Any change in steering effort? Fluid quality/level ok? How many miles on your Edge? Could be time to try flushing the PS system. I think I did read about the rack having to be replaced on a couple of Edges on this forum, but not a common occurrence for sure.

If you want to change the spark plugs, there are a couple of step-by-step writeups on this forum to help you out. Take your time & it should go fine. Or get a mechanically inclined friend to help. http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/8724-sparkplug-replacement-job-info-with-photos/ Haven't heard of the coils catching fire, maybe on other makes & models? BUT, yeah, if the coils wear out (excessive resistance in the circuit), the PCM can eventually fry, which would potentially account for the $2,800 fix the mechanic was referring to. This TSB (which officially applies to 2007-2008 MYs) should help: http://www.revbase.com/BBBMotor/TSb/DownloadPdf?id=176650

Did they say how long the repair is covered (independent of the 100K warranty)?
-
Nice catch, Dingo. Congrats, Cellbine! That camo outfit hid all that stuff from me really well
-
Definitely take it to the dealership. You can always have it towed there and start it up there. What color was the smoke? Could be rod bearing or main bearing going bad. Sometimes a bad cam phaser will cause inadequate lubrication, causing such a failure.

Most likely a PCM update, TSS/OSS replacement and/or a valve body modification will take care of this "bump" issue. Similar to issues spec'd in TSBs 09-02-07, 10-9-9 and 07-21-11.

Hi Pamela! Welcome to the forum, sorry you are experiencing the all-too-familiar PTU problem. Yes, it continues to happen in the newer models, but I believe with MUCH less frequency. On the 2007-2010 models, it is more of a luck of the draw. Have not heard of spark plugs breaking off on the Edge. On the 5.4L Triton engines in the F series trucks, sure, but not on the Edge. Who is your diagnostician/repair guy? Not a dealership, I presume. What kind of warranty do they give on their work? Are they putting in a brand new PTU with Ford spec fluid? May want to check the PTU seal at the same time, that is a known problem area also. The Edge is a relatively trouble-free/workhorst type of vehicle, but the PTU can definitely be a weak point.

Just got my Edge, need to install rooftop antenna
WWWPerfA_ZN0W replied to yvy1's topic in 2013 Edge & MKX
Hmm. Wonder if the Edge is shipped that way from the factory, or if something broke off in there. If you poke at it and it seems pliable, I'd try taking it out with a thumbtack. Or superglue a rod end to it and yank/unscrew. Or use a screw extractor as a final resort. But I'd much prefer yelling at the dealer- 9 replies

Might be the mating surface for your rooftop antenna. Try screwing in the dealer provided antenna first. Otherwise, make the dealer do it!- 9 replies

FORD WILL NO LONGER SUPPORT ZUNE MP3 PLAYERS
WWWPerfA_ZN0W replied to ccutaia1's topic in Audio, Backup, Navigation & SYNC
We do have a Ford rep on here you can redress your grievance with. He may be able to get this sorted out, or at least get you a reason why Zune support evaporated.
