Obviously living in a cave far away from all those nasty ECUs has it's own benefits and thus some market But I don't miss the choke valve, mechanically operated wipers and manually opened windows instead of AC. I love "fluffs"

So the flow behind the roof goes up? Don't think so. There's a lower pressure pocket behind the moving object, so both upper and lower turbulent streams curl toward the license plate. But my thought wasn't about an aerodynamics, just tailgate spoiler looks too massive, who knows what's hidden inside it!

Rock-solid car you might be looking for: Good luck with those.

I've had my PCM ECU updated. Did not have any issues, just found an updated "calibration" (weird term Ford uses for ECU firmware).

All Ford Edges Now on Factory Hold?
Vadimus replied to xbillmh's topic in Buying, Leasing & Ordering
Mine is early April, as per Ford's rep on this forum (I gave my VIN) it has been treated already. Haven't seen any leaks for 2 month I own my Edge. -
HID Swap
Vadimus replied to built2prfctn's topic in Glass, Lenses, Lighting, Mirrors, Sunroof (BAMR), Wipers
Looking cool is the key to a brighter future? Well, at least not 10,000K making headlights useless. -
2013 Ford Edge SEL Eco Boost Mod Ideas
Vadimus replied to Tyler Bailey's topic in EcoBoost Mod & Tech
It is not a V4, it is inline 4 BTW -
I think many owners of 2014-2015 Jeep Cherokee would love to drop 3 extra gears on their 9-speed transmission in exchange for the transmission that does not glitch.
-
+1, same here.

djrjr, to me your video clearly looks like a CAN bus communication disruption between PCM and other ECUs (or faulty CAN bus transceiver on one of the major ECUs, BCM is suspect #1). The dealer needs to check CAN bus for having proper physical parameters, at least that's what I'd do.

If your dealer has online inventory just check if they have 2016 in stock

15 Ford Edge Sport Honest Issues (July Build)
Vadimus replied to Nick Halstead's topic in Buying, Leasing & Ordering
You did not add a cherry - the sweating tail light bar! Damn, I'm lazy, but I'd kill took her to the dealer for much fewer issues... -
What have you done to/with your Edge/MKX today?
Vadimus replied to WWWPerfA_ZN0W's topic in Accessories & Modifications
Claimed power is 80W. Actually nowhere close to that. Wouldn't use them for high beam for sure. But for DRLs they're acceptable, a bit brighter than stock halogen though somewhat greenish. -

Changed halogen DRLs to LEDs -
Wow, that's a whole blast of hatred Speaking of being frozen/stuck - shutters servo is more than just stepper motor, it provides ECU with a full feedback including being overloaded.

DRL's and HID's
Vadimus replied to Kazz's topic in Glass, Lenses, Lighting, Mirrors, Sunroof (BAMR), Wipers
I believe first version of Edge did not have either lens or HID options. -
Quite opposite. We have a huge Evo and Ralliart community here, and while some issues are well-known (some parts of Miutsu's highly advanced AWD system tend to fail due to our winters) the engine and turbo are rock-solid, their humble 2.0 engine can be pushed way north of 500 whp.

2015 Ford Edge SEL - Steering Wheel peeling????
Vadimus replied to Rob Staszek's topic in Interior, A.C., Heat, Interior Trim
Not sure what peeling are you talking about yet it sounds like a warranty case. Go to your dealer and have it replaced. -
Tail light Condensation

24h after install. I think it's fine now. -
DRL's and HID's
Vadimus replied to Kazz's topic in Glass, Lenses, Lighting, Mirrors, Sunroof (BAMR), Wipers
HIDs retrofitted in a reflector headlight is a very bad thing. You will blind other drivers no matter what. Just because of optics laws. A while back I had 9006 HID kit on my 2005 Ford Freestyle and I still feel the shame for being careless. In halogen projector headlights HIDs are somewhat acceptable. -
DRL's and HID's
Vadimus replied to Kazz's topic in Glass, Lenses, Lighting, Mirrors, Sunroof (BAMR), Wipers
Turn bulbs provide some extra visibility as well. There is no regulated amount of light that DRLs need to provide I am aware of, and some stock DRL setups are considerably less bright than this 2 turn signal kind. My personal opinion is that low beams as DRLs should be prohibited at all - they give bad drivers a dangerous illusion that their headlights (and tail lights too!) are on, especially with modern always-lit instrument clusters. -
Tail light Condensation
Vadimus replied to d0minicano's topic in Glass, Lenses, Lighting, Mirrors, Sunroof (BAMR), Wipers
It's hard to tell for sure as I have new part# but not old one. But considering the fact that part ends with B it could be a newer version, same as with weatherstrip. On the other hand A version of a light bar could be non lit (for SE/SEL), and A version of weatherstrip could be a chrome type (non-Sport).
