  1. Ur local wally world or hardware will have many varieties of self-adhesive bumpers.
  2. See if this helps https://itstillruns.com/fix-window-falls-down-door-6167627.html
  3. The steel has to be completely clean, dry & bonded properly. Problems come from trapping moisture between the coating and the metal. Older coatings split and chip, allowing moisture to migrate between the coating and become trapped there. I had one of my cars undercoated professionally. They cleaned the bottom with steam, allowed to dry for couple of hours then the coating. Had to take it back every year for touchup. Still rusted in spots they could reach.
  4. OM says it's a 590 (or 760 with 2.0L and start/stop).
  5. Guess I'm a little confused. Does the car crank, but not fire, or do you get a no-crank condition?
  6. I would contact Weathertech. Your back sounds defective. Mine lays completely flat.
  7. Had the same problem a few weeks ago. Here's a link to my write up as to how to fix. http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/23597-windshield-washer-nozzle/?fromsearch=1 .
  8. Can't say, haven't used this product. This is specifically designed for headlights, requires UV to cure. Stuff I use, once/twice yr, only air drys and probably lasts only to first carwash. Don't feel like laying out $$ for a UV light, but this stuff can be cured in strong sunlight when temps are over 70°. Any refetences for using clearcoat on lens? Longevity, damage to polycarbonate over time, etc.?
  9. Requires special tools and a UV light to cure the sealant, but this looKs like the (one of) the best method to use. Lasts for three years, sane process as used oem. https://www.jbtoolsales.com/presta-137306-headlight-sealant/?gclid=CjwKCAiAtdDTBRArEiwAPT4y-7b4FyCGxLw_rbS3mU0XsRvEICgQc9A870SPwAMa4fJPBmWR4ce7HxoCN7EQAvD_BwE
  10. Just noticed that there is a new OEM PTU for sale on Ebay for $700 (free shipping), in case there's anyone who's looking for one. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F181751271842
  11. Nice, I sort of like the front end (still on the fence, guess it's soooo different). Don't care for the dirty, brown tires though. lol
  12. I would stay with Motorcraft for these parts. Others have reported problems with aftermarket. Ebay has lots to choose from, for example: https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F272690460370
  13. You should pull the codes to see what the check engine light represents. That she's losing ABS and traction comtrol could be isolated to one or more sensor's triggered by speed. (These systems are very complex interconnected).
  14. There are dozens available on Ebay. If your looking fie OEM rubber (with the Edge logo), they normally sell for under a hundred for front and back, same for the cargo mat. (Used are considerably less.)Set of front & rear: https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F261261960490 Cargo: https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F181214913834 There are carpeted OEM mats as well (you didn't specify). Personally I prefer Weathertech due to their "deep dish" design that catches and holds winter slush.

    She’s dead :(

    13's are fairly solid cars, the biggest complaint is door ajar light (faulty latch switch). 2nd most reported problem is the shifter.
  16. I'm attaching a copy of the 2015 For Towing Guide for your use. 2015 Ford Edge Towing.pdf
  17. On my 09 MKX the towing option included the hitch, connector wiring, added transmission cooler, upgraded dual fans & larger radiator.
  18. My 09 MKX did that. New brake booster helped a little, new brakes helped more. However one of the mechanics found something binding on the brakes that wasn't allowing the pads to fully contact the rotor. (This was during a "free" brake check with coupon). Whatever it was, made a 80% difference. Someone here who has a better understanding of the brakes may be able to speculate on what it was. As it was free, and I didn't even notice it until I was on the way home, I never asked exactly what he did.
  19. Wait until you see that white platinum in the sun. Its gonna knock your socks off.
  20. Nothing touches my baby cept a Northern Pride's $18 Ultimate car wash every week. None of that fancy ceramic stuff. (lol)
  21. Would you believe that you can actually "see" better with the yellow lights than those that run more bluish? Our eyes are most sentiment to yellow-green light and have very few rods sensitive to blue. It's only an illusion that you see better with white-blue light. Blue also causes the eye to focus differently than in normal light. That said, I had a Japanese rental that had FANTASTIC HID lights. Hit the brights and ... daylight.
