I am having trouble getting the foam cover off of my 2016 3.5. I found two attachment points and it moves pretty easily, but I can't get it over the oil fill tube. Is there another fastener that I am missing? Any pictures of a 2nd gen 3.5. with the foam off? It looks to me to be a bit different than Norm's picture indicates.

A veteran to veteran THANK YOU for your service!

Just discovered these kids. Gives me some hope that rock and roll as I like it does indeed have a future!

I would add that those self tapping screws go into holes that already exist. The instructions that come with the AVS piece explains all.

A Chevy headed to SEMA.

I would be interested in seeing a photoshop rendering as well!

Well, well, well, looks like two-tone may return. https://jalopnik.com/two-tone-paint-is-the-big-new-trend-in-car-design-1819749106

Thanks! Anybody else?

How many miles did you get out of your 20" Pirelli Scorpion OEM tires before you replaced them, and what did you replace them with? Also, please give a 1-5 score (with 5 being aggressive) on your driving style over the life of these tires.

FYI: I just got this for my 2016.

cd, consider yourself given a hard time...

I have been listening to this new work by Jason & Co. and found this. It's a good sample of this record. http://www.npr.org/event/music/545844291/jason-isbell-tiny-desk-concert

Having had my Edge now for awhile now, I would like to have better interior lighting, especially in the back. An overhead lamp in the rear top projected downward would be more helpful than is the side mounted light which (for me) is blocked by my fishing stuff when I am packing for a fishing trip the night before.

Can you explain this statement?

Thanks Bill!

Did you by chance do a sound check before you changed out the second replacement pair? In other words, if you replaced the front speakers (or back) first did you check out how the system sounded before changing out the second speaker set. If so, can you quantify the sound / imaging improvement?(I know that might be tough)

Bill; What model / brand speakers did you use for your replacement?

DETROIT -- Ford Motor Co. said Tuesday that it is recalling about 6,000 Ford Edge, Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ 2.0-liter gasoline vehicles that have improperly welded torque converter studs. The automaker said the affected vehicles, which come with a 6F35 transmission, could lose power, increasing the risk of a crash. Ford said it's not aware of any accidents or injuries related to the problem. The affected vehicles are: •2017 Ford Edge crossovers built at Oakville (Ontario) Assembly Plant from April 25 to June 20. •2017 Ford Fusion sedans built at Hermosillo (Mexico) Assembly Plant from May 4 to June 19. •2017 Lincoln MKZ sedans built at Hermosillo from May 4 to June 19. In each case, dealers will replace the affected parts for free. http://www.autonews.com/article/20170711/OEM11/170719926/ford-recalls-6000-edge-fusion-and-mkz-vehicles-in-north-america

Ignore, or better yet delete double post if possible.

It can be, but voltage is a good quick tell as well.

Test no. 4 was the tell. My Ford Dealer did a load discharge and full recharge test and discovered that a battery cell was indeed failing. They replaced the battery under warranty and hopefully that will be the end of my issues. I just hope that there is not a parasitic voltage draw lurking somewhere that promoted the battery issue.
