enigma-2

Uhhhhhhh, black. (Have no idea. How do I check)?

Travelling. In Seattle, got a new Edge for the week. Seems solid, very quiet and extremely smooth. Seats are hard to get out of (side bolsters too high). Not crazy about Sync 3, phone synces, but no voice with Google Maps. Great brakes, excellent acceleration.

Oh it's dry all right. The locals start whining if the humidity hits 4%. ? But anything over 108° and you will burn your fingers trying to open the car door. Man its hot. Used my shirt to open the door, leaned in and started the car. Finally able to get in after 20 minutes of ac running.

Before you go to the dealer, go online aND get at least three quotes from on-line dealers. Run it for both Premium Care and Extra Care. Pick the best quote and then take THAT one to your dealer. Call ahead and make an appointment with the dealers comptroller (VP or whoever handles the money). Allow him to present his offers and then tell him you looked on line and show him the quote(s) you printed out. (He will match as he knows you can buy the warranty from any authorized dealer.) My dealer's agent took a deep breath and immediately said he would match the price. I hesitated, looked at my watch, and he offered $0 deductible if I had the work done at their garage ($100 elsewhere). I also agreed to an inspection to verify that there was no exiting defects. Cost was $100. I agreed but insisted that the inspection be done only by the Service Manager (after all he's the best mechanic in the garage). He agreed and I signed. Inspection is usually mandatory and expect to pay 1 hour over and above the cost of the warranty. (I actually wanted a full inspection to see if anything was wrong as I was still under a Premium Care plan).

Difficult to figure out based on your weak description. From what little you gave, left of the steering wheel, behind a panel, I'd guess you were looking at the cabin fuse panel.

If your using the mobile version, switch to the "full version" at the bottom. In the full version, click on "more reply opions", then click on "choose file", browse & select the picture, then click "attack this file".

Don't you weaken the spark when you gap plugs too small?

A lot can fail in 8 years. You could aways go with a warranty that covered less. Premium Care covers over 1000 different items. Extra Care covers the important parts, engine, transmission, PTU, etc. and costs a lot less. (My 09 is currently under a Extra Care.)

Weak battery?

I'm not expert, but my first suspicion would be either a wheel bearing where the seal has broke, allowing water to get into the to the bearing and cause it to go bad; or a bad carrier bearing on the right front driveshaft.

We had it on a rental in Seattle last year. After a few minutes I never noticed it. Try a test drive, doubt you would find it objectionable.

Check tire pressure?

It's not just liberals. I keep looking for 666 on his forehead. In a different country, or time, he would take power completely. And I see him trying to do now. I held my nose and voted for him, but he's a loose cannon without real morals (or understanding of what he's doing). He's like a child who's been handed a gun on a playground. He's attacks on Canada and NATO are not supportive in any way. His love of Russia goes back years. Some say they had something on him from over a decade ago. Something involving a prostitute and what happened to her. (A friend of his that has since stopped talking). Russia is a real threat to our democracy. (This is shared by both sides of the house and Senate). And they are continuing to spy even today. (Look at the news of what they did just last week). Just a little too cozy for my satisfaction. I hate to say it, as I really, really, really, really hate VP Pence. (And I'm from indiana). But I think he would make a better president. Trump is inexperienced, insecure, comprised and a spoiled brat grown up. And he will never change (as I had hoped). I respect your opinion and hope for the best, but I cannot agree.

Still leaking or all good?

May use different master cylinders based on Edge models, engineering size, etc.. In looking up your car, the cylinder is listed separately from the reservoir. Here's what's listed for thr 2012 Edge Sport with the 3.7L engine. https://www.oemfordpart.com/auto-parts/2012/ford/edge/sport-trim/3-7l-v6-gas-engine/brakes-cat/hydraulic-system-scat

I agree with akirby, try disconnecting the battery for twenty minutes. See if the SJB resets.

The reason companies are NOT moving to the US, is because a large percentage of OEM parts are made overseas. For example, an American domestic car relies on approximately 40% of parts made outide the US. For a company to relocate here, they would still have to import parts.

It's not looking good for this. Look at Harley Davidson moving production to Europe, over the tarrifs. Moves like this will be permanent. https://money.cnn.com/2018/06/25/news/companies/harley-davidson-motorcycles-tariffs-trump/index.html

Uh huh. Well after all the flag-waving and rethoric, we are still left with cold, hard facts. "The National Automobile Dealers Association said auto tariffs could raise the average price of a car by $4,400 and eliminate more than 700,000 jobs."

Absolutely. NBC news reported today about the costs of new cars do to the tariff. Prices ran around $2000 more for domestic to $6000 for imports. https://www.nbcnews.com/business/economy/trump-s-auto-tariffs-will-cost-83-billion-insiders-tell-n893061

My 09 mkx has them. Used for attaching a tow bar.

Eh, is it me or does the woman in the top center pic on the attachment have extra parts.......? Anyway, I've found that when I run into this problem, its usually because the PDF's have been removed on the server side.

Ford's aftermarket srp is $345 ($375 installed) for bi-directional and $303 ($332 installed) for one-way. May have to add for hood switch or extra remote.

My dealer's service technician recommended 36k (every three years). Service manager thought 30k was sufficient. If you have 90k on yours, take a look at the seals. Dealer found mine leaking at an oil change; around that time. Said they could change the seal for $450. (I ok'ed but they changed the unit when they discovered I had an extended warranty). One point to consider is an extended warranty would cost less that a new unit. Service manual states if the fluid looks black, it's still ok. So if you do change your own, don't panic when you see its color.

Looks like a retainer to hold the bulb assembly in alignment. Perhaps may have been knocked loose during bulb replacement. (Or its a manufacturing defect). It will probably take a assembly replacement, but because of the cost, I'd try a fix first. If it were me, I'd drill a small hole in the top or bottom of the front assembly (out of the optical path) and use a piece of coat hanger (perhaps put a 90°bend at the end, 3/16" long) and work the ring back into position. Then seal the hole with clear sylicone.
