  1. Hummm I am questioning her life choices. LOL
  2. Not so quick. Run her till she drops. Then make the decision on what direction to go.
  3. Did a video today on another topic and recorded the cold start up of LU. Got me some blue smoke at start up for a minute or so. HUmmmm
  4. Live video from today 10 Sept 2017
  5. I have the dial type on my wife's Edge. This one was installed by the Filter Minder corp on my Edge. I am not aware of any measurement differences other then the difference in the designs they both do the same thing.
  6. Small dental pick should help pry it out
  7. I finally cleaned the air filter after 98,000 miles. Good to go.
  8. Not seeing an issue to worry about on the transmission/engine flywheel cover. Power steering may be more of a seep than a leak at this time. Repair would be about 300 dollars for the power steering if a garage replaces the hose/s Either way I would monitor it and keep an eye on both fluids for now.
  9. Agree I have documented many times using Forscan Lite that the fans shut down at 45mph. They also operate at reduced power at 30mph.
  10. Average vehicle life is a little over 11 yrs so maybe? .........upgrade.
  11. It does not matter the spare is only designed for about 50 miles of use. If you have a flat the tire is only supposed to be operated at 50 mph. Enough to get you to the tire shop. The AWD system will adapt short term to the difference. Main theory being you quickly get the tire replaced/repaired.
  12. Very few issues for over heating with the primary being the failure of the cooling fans. The next main failure historically will be the water pump.
  13. They will just auction it off.
  14. I recently bought two belts for the power steering and the aftermarket was shorter than the MC OEM so just because it says it is the correct part number does not indicate it will be the correct fit. Replace the belt with a MC OEM belt and you should be fine.
  15. LOL I know what fuel pressure is. But maybe it is low or fluctuating and not quite enough to cause a CEL. Stranger things have happened. Be nice to see if there is a misfire count.
  16. an oil test would lay it all out for you on what is going on.
  17. Valve body / valves/ springs and balls. Maybe new valve body.
  18. What is the fuel pressure. Have the Fuel Pressure checked.
  19. The MAF will cause a Traction Control and advance track warning. Is it clean, is the MAF plugged in and is your air filter clean? and if you are using a KN filter then the MAF may need cleaning.
  20. Why yes I can fit into a Lambo and a Z06 corvette thank you very much. LOL MACT Live 27 August 2017 live from Omaha Nebraska
  21. Cam phasers have also been known to fail and required replacement which could set the same code.
  22. A quick easy way to check your water pump for leaks.
  23. Trying to remember but if you have sockets up to 24mm you have covered virtually everything. I have only ran across on size that is not common and that is the seat bolts and they are 18mm otherwise you are looking at the odd numbered sizes for the most part. Some suspension parts for the struts I believe required some in the 20's but do not remember what size it ended up being.
  24. Here are some data screen shots on a good running 2011 Edge.
  25. I am installing a turbo sticker tomorrow then!!!
