  1. wow, what an improvement. Looks like $57? Install looks like a simple 2 min job according to this video:
  2. mine is a currently under CPO, so this fix and replacement of the PTU only cost me the $100 deductible
  3. could be lots of things, but my 2011 Limited started acting odd on just the drivers side. I would have to put the temperature all the way to high and then bring it back down for it to react. Took it to the dealer 2 weeks ago. Their diagnosis on my invoice says " HVAC Control Module reprogrammed with latest calibration per TSB 11-8-7" Seems to have fixed mine. Not sure if will apply to 2012 TSB 11-8-7_Unable to maintain Temp old.pdf
  4. I updated my 2011 Limited to A6 back in February and still have the old A4 in my desk drawer. No takers when I put it on eBay. Its yours if you want it. Just PM me your address and I'll mail it to you!
  5. Thanks. I'd done all the research in advance and was thrown off by their use of the word "front" And based on all these posts about adding the drain so we can service these and extend their lives, I'm wishing they would have installed the Middle Eastern PTU that apparently has the drain as I understand it Great board, lots to learn here for the DIYer's
  6. I have a question for the PTU crowd. I posted a week ago that the dealer service slip says they changed my "front PTU" on my 2011 CPO Limited. But I'm curious about the word "Front" Is there a rear PTU?
  7. Picked up my CPO 2011 Edge Limited today after asking the dealer to check for the PTU leak. Service slip says "excessive resistance found inside front PTU, almost unable to spin. Front PTU replaced." Cost was covered under the CPO warranty. I looked up the PTU part number on the invoice (AT4Z 7251 G) and see the part alone is $905.............. I think I got lucky taking it in as soon as I spotted the leak since it looks like it's days were numbered.
  8. My CPO warranty is supposed to cover it, and they never mentioned cost. Just gave me a loaner. I'll let you know Friday when I pick it up
  9. 275 posts on this topic, so seemed like it was only a matter of time before it was my turn. Starting seeing the dreaded black goo on my garage floor last week. My 2011 Edge is a CPO with 47K miles. Took it in to the dealer yesterday and they kept it, said yes, it's the PTU, and gave me a loaner. Pick it up Friday......... Also found a hydraulic leak (transmission filter?) Update Friday
  10. for your iphone 6, go to SETTINGS, BLUETOOTH, find SYNC and tap the blue circle with the "i" in it. Then enable "Show Notifications" that worked for me on both iphone 4s and 6s
  11. well, that's a separate question. I have a 2011 Edge Limited and couldn't be happier with the handling. Cutting into that So Cal traffic must be more slalom like
  12. Why not OEM? I've been buying my parts from Ford (so far) and this is typically the lowest dealer price on the web for parts I've purchased: http://parts.autonationfordwhitebearlake.com/auto-parts/2011/ford/edge/limited-trim/3-5l-v6-gas-engine/rear-suspension-cat/stabilizer-bar-and-components-scat
  13. I bought this stainless steel cover for my 2011. Looks great, adds some bling, and it has a taken some scratches (which was the point -protect the bumper) Easy to install. Gets my approval Sunroadway® Stainless Steel Rear Bumper Sill Plate Cover for Ford Edge 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015
  14. Thanks drpepper!. I just did the Sync software upgrade and my iphone 6 phone book would no longer download. Good news, I thought I'd give your text fix a try. I followed your 9 steps above and it now works! Thanks for taking the time to post
  15. This just happened to my 2011 Limited, so I've been doing research. Turns out it's a pretty simple DIY. Assuming it's the housing, it only comes as one piece but the most expensive one unpainted (every option like BLIS, heated, with memory) is just over $300 for a 2013 Limited. Use your model info to find yours. This is the lowest pricing I've found on the web for any Ford parts: http://stores.revolutionparts.com/parts.autonationfordwhitebearlake.com/auto-parts/2013/ford/edge/limited-trim/3-5l-v6-gas-engine/body-cat/outside-mirrors-scat I believe the painted portion of your mirror if not damaged, that piece is removable and can be installed on your new mirror. This video for an Explorer shows how to get that off and it should be the same. Anyone who'd done this, please chime in I'm about to order the new housing, my undamaged black cover will be getting reused hope this helps, since the dealer seems to be ridiculously overcharging you
  16. As an update on leather headrests for my 2011 Edge Limited, the 2013 adjustable leather headrests arrived last night. They come in 2 pieces and it took me about 20 minutes all in to convince the leather covers to go on, but be patient and just inch them a little at a time. They have overlapping flaps that snap together to form a hidden, clean look underneath. End result is a fantastic improvement. I can now sit up straight, and they look and work great. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh........................... All in, here's what I ordered from AutoNation Ford White Bear Lake (lowest price I could find on the web): CT4Z-74610A62-EB HEADREST COVER CHARCOAL, Qty 2, $65.40 x 2 = $130.80 CT4Z-78611A08-A HEADREST PAD Qty 2, $93.38 x 2 = $186.76 plus freight $300+, but worth every penny

  18. New here, first post, but love these forums and always contribute on other forums as I find/fix things or need help. I picked up a loaded black 40K mile CPO 2011 Edge Limited 3 weeks ago, love it, and have been looking for upgrades. Weathertech added all around, and I installed this bumper protector and it covers the bumper lip and looks great. Got it here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00WGUJ3AA?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00 I've also ordered the headrests for a 2013 (the fixed headrests on the 2011 are painful) and those are on their way, so I'll let you know how that goes
