  1. Honestly, just watching the video, it looks ok to me. Dealer didn't have a cow over it, probably nothing to concerned over. I'd be more concerned if the airbag hasn't been changed. (Like MINE). snort!
  2. Key FOB'S also contain transmit circuitry. I understand why you don't like the IA fob, with me it's the large physical size of carrying around in my back pocket. As for not allowed to enter the controlled area with the IA, you have a locker that you can lock it up in. When I was in the military and worked in a classified area, it was cameras. And the camera's we used were kept locked up even when there was no film in them.
  3. If your talking about the passenger air bag instrument panel cover, it just pushes down and is held by clips. Should be able to just press it down flush again. Under no circumstances should you be able to see the actual airbag. Was this airbag replaced by Ford under the recall?
  4. Looks like another job for duct tape! OK, seriously, if it's open in back then I don't see any problem. If not, I'd talk to the service manager about it.
  5. If you go with Motorcraft, make certain you get the ones for your tire size (18" tires are different that 20" tire size). Aftermarket are universal are not manufactured to that precision.
  6. Yeaaaa, you don't want your driveshaft to get stuck in a pothole and buckel.
  7. Yea, I was disappointed with mine as well. I wanted "Heart's Desire" and all I can change to is "Asses of Roses".
  8. Sweet. Is the color the Ingot Silver Metallic or the White Platinum Metallic? Hard to tell as both tend to change as the light changes.
  9. I tried crushing up some Nugenix and putting it in the gas tank. (Thought I'd give my car a set of bigger bolts.) Only thing that happened was, the engine started backfiring every once in awhile and the exhaust smelled funny.
  10. On my 2009 MKZ the low fuel warning comes on at 50 miles. If I reset it, it pops up evey 10 miles or so. I deliberately ran it down to 0 once to test it, and finally refilled it around 30 miles over. So there's a safety margin.
  11. I was being facetious. For $70k+ I want more than transportation and wandered too far off course.
  12. I assumed the same brand/style wheel, the larger will weigh more of course. And, It's not possible to judge one design or brand with another properly. What I posted was a comparison of tire weights using the 245/50/20 & 265/40/21 sizes; both were the Perelli Scorpion Verde All Season. (Compares apples-to-apples based on size alone).
  13. I ve posted this PDF on another post, but thought it may be appropriate here. It describes how the AWD (gen 1) works. Emailing Ford's All-Wheel Drive 2009.pdf
  14. Looked on tirerack.Com. Choose same tire brand/model in both sizes, 20" was 32 lbs, 21" was 34 lbs.
  15. During last oil change wandered around showroom as I usually do (gets the blood circulating in the sales staff, good for laughs). Looked at the 150 on the floor, mid 70's. It was niceeee. Some sort of auto cover that unrolled and covered the bed. Rolled up out of the way when desired. The playroom was large enough, thought the bath was a little cramped however. Also still had the actually dive it yourself, no auto-drive function, and no Mr. Fusion to power it. Still had to refuel at a gas station. (Hey, for 70+, I want to be able to go back to the bedroom, grab a few zzzz's and let it drive me cross country without stopping to refuel).
  16. The one downside to all of this is, a former owner could use the factory key code to open the door, start the car and drive it away. Or anyone else who's had access to the five-digit number. There should be a way to block this from ever happening.
  17. I can't see any purpose for this either. Are the backup LEDs actually on or possibly bleed over from the tail lights?
  18. Does this answer your question? http://www.modifiedlife.com/2014-ford-edge-car-audio-wire-schematic/
  19. Here's one place you can start. Be advised that one you do upgrade, you may never be able to upgrade the Sync 3 to a later version. And you will not be able to update the maps to a later year. I read that there are companies that are trying to pirate copies for those that have changed their cars, but don't remember it they have succeeded or not. https://www.4dtech.com/2015-ford-edge-sync-3-upgrade-for-myford-touch/
  20. If I read these right it's blue with gray stripe and green (solid).
  21. Oh heck, go for the best. http://m.autoanything.com/brakes/61A7126A0A0.aspx
