Welcome & congrats, Brian! Your pride in your vehicles shows Like the Brian from VA said, great pics.

Well, that's no fun! Glad you got out of the situation safely. Almost makes you want to put in an inline fuse/fusible link

and

Cool, congrats! At least you will have max access to service records too. Looks VERY nice. Keep an eye on that vista roof, make sure it's well-lubed

No luck taking the airbox off yet, will try AGAIN Monday. Pix then, audio too. Intake Air System Components — Exploded View

EBay is the closest I have come to finding anything useful for "dressup".

Also check your battery. Many electronics issues can be traced to an old/dying battery.

Cool! Let us know how it goes. At least it seems easier to get an engine than a throttle body

That might have been it, only greenish color available in the Edge lineup that I am aware of.

Isn't that just a relay? Probably in the underhood power distribution box? The actual circuit goes through the Smart Junction Box. Basically, relay, circuit, hazard switch and the SJB are the involved componentry.

Great to hear, Leigh. What symptoms were you experiencing? How did they diagnose it as a TB issue?

Good to hear! Though it makes you wonder if the Ford guys just forgot to take off the "packing material" from the struts before installation

Did you see any mineral grays? Quite an interesting color choice as well.

This Edge means business! What did you go for your lighting upgrades? Interior lighting shots?

I'd say there's just a smidgen of difference. Yeehaw!

Good info. No effect on ride?

Welcome & congrats! Kona Blue is quite a striking color. Maybe look at aquatic designs for inspiration?

Thought I'd add this door latch replacement info from the 2007 Edge Workshop Manual: Removal and Installation Remove the door trim panel. For additional information, refer to Section 501-05 . http://www.paulstravelpictures.com/Ford-Edge-Door-Panel-Removal-Speaker-Replacement-Guide/index.html Remove the door window regulator and motor assembly. For additional information, refer to Section 501-11 . http://www.paulstravelpictures.com/Ford-Edge-Power-Window-Motor-Replacement-Guide/index.html Disconnect the interior door handle actuating cable. If equipped, disconnect the door lock cylinder actuating rod. Disconnect the door handle reinforcement actuating rod. NOTE: Front door shown, rear door similar. Release the door latch rear locking clip. NOTE: Front door shown, rear door similar. Release the door latch front locking clip. Disconnect the door latch electrical connector. Release the door latch front locking clip. Remove the door latch with the door lock actuating rod. If necessary, disconnect the door lock actuating rod. To install, reverse the removal procedure. Lubricate the door latch to striker surfaces after installation.

More than likely it is held on by a couple of screws to the door handle/bezel. Could be a snap in piece too, but don't know for sure. The Ford catalog doesn't list all the parts for the latest models, it takes a few years. You could search for a parts catalog on EBay, maybe that will be more helpful?

Closest thing I have found at www.fordparts.com is indeed called the Interior Door Handle Trim, there is LH and RH, but no front/rear. http://www.fordparts.com/Commerce/CatalogResults.aspx?y=2012&m=Ford&mo=Edge&initSearch=1&keyword=interior%20door%20handle%20trim#Search If you can take a pic of the actual problem piece and post it, that would be helpful. Is it a smooth plastic piece, or textured non-plastic piece etc? You may be able to restore with a plastic polish like PlastX if not too bad, is why I am asking.

That is a NICE vehicle! Congrats and look forward to updates

Will give it a go today. Fingers crossed I did change out the filter (Purolator Classic) the other day (Motorcraft, old = dirty), and I do have to say that it made a small-but-noticeable improvement. Apparently the shine-the-light-through-the-filter standard is not enough to check for adequate airflow these days.

Welcome, and I will say congratulations (although guardedly). How many miles did this particular Edge have on it when you bought it, and what was the build date? You are right to be concerned. The quality of work depends on the dealership's staff, of course. They should have their most experienced mechanics working on the engine swap, since I assume it will be a short block (basically cylinder head down to the oil pan), not a long block that they are replacing. In all honesty, you have to give them a chance to fix it correctly. If they don't, you will have a much stronger case for further action. Definitely check into the lemon laws and the extended warranty (I assume bumper to bumper, not powertrain?). Document all events and contacts with the dealership/Ford. Maybe pursue a vehicle buyback of some sort, get another Edge? I am guessing that would really depend on the dealership.

Welcome & congrats! The Edge sure fills that niche rather nicely. 3.7L? Post some pics

Sorry to hear you are moving so far away, Mickey but hope things go well for you.
