Factory perimeter alarm
Hollywood1 replied to Hollywood1's topic in Alarms, Keyless Entry, Locks & Remote Start
Thank you. I don’t mind paying to have it activated but I can’t stomach paying to get such a simple thing installed. I can’t even find instructions for it. -
This weekend I’m going to be tearing apart the rear sub area and doors to put sound insulation in, but I’m wondering if anyone has used the Cerwin Vega spare tire subwoofer? There is also a kit on eBay with a custom box and 10 inch sub for the spare area. Anyone have experience with either one? Thanks

I’ve been doing a lot of reading on this forum as well as the Fusion forum and other Facebook posts, but I’d like to see if anyone has a more definitive and straightforward answer. As the title suggests, I would like to upgrade my cluster on my 2024 Edge ST to a digital cluster that came on the MKX or possibly even an Explorer unit. Does HKanybody have a definitive point of contact or person that does this for a fee, and is a plug-in play affair? I have ForScan light, but I don’t have the full ForScan program at this time. Thanks in advance and I appreciate all the help.

I have a 2024 Edge ST and I would like to add the factory perimeter alarm ML3Z-19A361-A. Does anyone know if it’s a simple plug and play or if I need to get it coded? TIA

Side mirror inside plastic cover causing damage

I was thinking the same thing, pop it off and hit the sharp edge with a file. -
Ok. Thanks

After installing HID AC no longer blows cold
Hollywood1 replied to CastorTroy45's topic in 2011 Edge & MKX
There are three fuses on the top of the battery terminal. Did you check those? -
Identify this part on my wife's edge.

Mine is a 2014 Sport and it works fine. I just step on the brake and push start. Looks like a dealer visit for you buddy.

Do you have the part number handy? I want to see if these will fit my 2014 Sport

It sounds like you may have a bad CV joint. When the bearings go bad you develop play in the joint. Jack your car up (ramps are better) and grab your half shaft(s) and wiggle them. There should be no play. Good luck Nate

So I just received my Kensun HIDs that I ordered from Amazon this week. I also ordered the relay and will be posting the install in pictures. I ordered with the assurance that there is a 2 year warranty on the kit and lifetime on the ballasts. It is a 55w/5000K kit and I paid $70 shipped. The ballasts are the digital slims, and they are fairly weighty. The wiring is of a pretty thick gauge and the kit seems generally well put together. I'll let you know as I go. Nate

Sorry bro, that's $200 over the new price on EBay. You might want to drop that price and you'll get some takers.

So this is a one week impression of the AWD sport. First off, mileage, I started out at about 14mpg, added a K&N panel filter and now I'm sitting at about 18.5 after 500 miles of break-in. I had a 2011 Sport FWD base model for a year and I must say that the features on my new one (which is completely loaded) are awesome! BLIS, driver convenience key, powered tailgate and the Vista Roof are all great. The AWD is also really nice to have as I always thought that my previous Sport was having a really hard time putting power down, now I just punch it and it goes! I've got quite a bit of boxes coming, DriveBright tails-DRLS-HIDs, magnaflow exhaust, ADDCO sway bar and H&R springs. There is a local tuner here in Phoenix that wants to try to adapt the Mustang supercharger, but I'm worried the PTU won't take the power. We'll see. Cheers Nate

After lowering...have a quick question
Hollywood1 replied to Tom Champagne's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
Thanks, just little tricks learned from years of mistakes. -
After lowering...have a quick question
Hollywood1 replied to Tom Champagne's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
Try this. Buy a can of waterproof silicone lubricant, take off your front wheels and spray the area where the spring meets the top strut hat where the rubber bushing is (no WD-40 or oil based lube!). Also spray at the bottom where the spring meets the lower strut collar and see if the noise goes away. A little trick you can do is to buy some spiral cable loom, jack up the front to uncompressed the spring, and thread the spiral loom onto the bottom where it meets the lower strut collar. -

Wow, that's a lot of issues. Conversely, I have a 2011 Sport with 60,000 miles that has never has 1 issue. No PTU seals, no audio or Sync issues, nada. As for performance, I put an AFE dry filter in it, and my GTech pro says 6.5-6.7 to 60 consistently. With a Tribeca running about 7.8 to 60 under perfect conditions, I doubt you get "smoked". But hey, good luck with the repairs and remember that you would spend $10-20 thousand more for a comparable import such as an X3 Sport, X5 sport 3.0, Audi Q5 3.2, ML350 or the like and have just as many or more issues. My "other" car is a 2012 Grand Cherokee SRT8, maybe you should take a look at that, I smoke everything under an $80 grand window sticker (except those pesky Corvettes). I get 12 MPG doing it, but its fun! Good luck

No leaks at all. Check to make sure that your o-rings in the tire pressure sensors are not over tightened. When wheels are swapped the "tire pros" tend to over tighten them and they leak. One quarter turn past finger tight, with a dab of red loc-tite. If you have band sensors, have the tires removed and re-seated, ask them to use a little extra tire bead wax (the stuff they smear to help the machine).

I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned this, but aside from getting a different sound from the air box, this is not much of a performance mod. With the snorkel removed you are sucking in hot air from directly behind the radiator. If the sound is what you are after, use the airbox silencer delete plug from Steeda made for the 3.5 Fusion.

Answering "alignment after drop" question
Hollywood1 replied to Hollywood1's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
Don't I know it! My first priority this morning was to have it fixed. I was in a hurry to leave Friday and didn't look at the printout. Here is the new one. -
Answering "alignment after drop" question
Hollywood1 replied to Hollywood1's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
I did about 250 miles of driving including about half highway and half very curvy roads on a short day trip up to Sedona and a little beyond. I got the alignment the next day. Im sure there are a lot opinions on this, but i have modified the suspension of almost every vehicle i have owned and springs don't take much time to settle. I put Eibach camber bolts on both sides during the spring install. It looks like I am headed back one more time though, as it is still pulling to the left a little. -
I'll let the photo speak for itself. This is for all those that ask if an alignment is needed after installing lowering springs. I had my Edge Sport aligned less than 2 months ago, and here is the sheet after installing H&R springs.

It sounds like the setup you have is working for you, the LC2 seems like the perfect option at this point. If you can get a full range signal, it will give you up to 8volts on the preout, so you get MUCH more signal and you'll get bass frequencies from 20hz to whatever you like. The factory Sony sub is 60-90hz range according to an installer I talked to with an analyzer, so getting a full signal and crossing your sub over around 120-150hz is going to give you that midrange punch you are after.
