I got lucky today - my negligence didn't get me stranded, but it was close. I haven't been checking my emergency wheel pressure and when I needed it today it was at 40 psi, and the second near miss was the fact that only a couple of weeks ago I installed the new lug nuts that the dealership gave me when they damaged the original ones back in 2017. If I still had the old damaged lug nuts on, the emergency wrench would have been useless. On the way home from work on the I71 about 10 miles from home the tire pressure warning came on. I got off at the next exit which wasn't too far and by the time I got to a safe place to fit the emergency spare the TPMS was indicating 5 psi. Got home, plugged the puncture and all is good again. Also, got to use the new great chuck that I installed on my tire inflator.

Have you tried searching the forum for "ptu" ?

Did you view the link I posted? Where/how did you arrive at a diameter difference of two inches? The diameter difference is 9.1mm i.e. 0.36 inch. Reading at 30mph = 30.37mph

Having just gone from 19" 255mm wide tires to 20" 315mm tires while maintaining the circumference I can confidently say your statement is incorrect. Rim width went from 9" to 11". Using the below web site you can access the overall dimensions changing rim diameter, width and offset. https://www.willtheyfit.com/index.php?width=255&aspect=50&diameter=19&wheelwidth=9&offset=37&width2=315&aspect2=35&wheel_size=20&wheel_width=11&offset2=28 I did not use "guesswork".

At 104K miles and I was looking to purchase new plugs to install during the next oil change, but found that NGK and RockAuto are listing a different hotter plug my for vehicle. Now listing NGK 90495 LTR6BHX heat range 6 vs the previous listed NGK 95605 LTR7BHX heat range is 7 I wonder what's behind the change to a hotter plug - anyone have some insight? Have had these plugs in for 42K miles and never skipped a beat.

Be aware that when returning a lease, if the inspection reveals any component that does not meet the OEM spec, such as tire rating etc., you'll be billed for new replacements.

It should be the same as my Sport - I did not remove that tube, but would probably do so next time.

center console switched, now engine won't crank
1004ron replied to lumaie's topic in Interior, A.C., Heat, Interior Trim
Welcome. I doubt that anyone here could offer advice with the limited amount of information provided. Why did the console need replacement - was it a like for like replacement .....? -
Sounds like your dealership service manager is trying to pay his boat off faster. Did you check and confirm that all those brake parts were past their useful service life, or just take the word of the service shop? If you did check and confirm the brake parts needed replacement then "I do not drive crazy with my car" doesn't sound correct, and isn't the norm. You could have had the battery tested at AutZone free of charge, but no issue with that if it was replaced prematurely under warranty.

You might have noticed from reading this thread that doing that is not good practice.

advancetracsystem Advanced Track System service Warning
1004ron replied to Mshaban's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
Its possible that while doing the brake work the ABS wheel speed sensor was disturbed/damaged but unusual for it to show 4 weeks later. Read the stored error codes and that might give you a better idea what's wrong. -
I would also consider this option: https://reman-transmission.com/transmissions/ford/edge/2013/automatic-6-speed-3.5l-awd-id-da8p-7000-ra

That's unfortunate. Was that a Ford dealership? Have you had a discussion with the service manager regarding a discount for the $1,800 spent two weeks prior - they some responsibility regarding assessing the viability of spending that much. Any chance you can post the invoice/job card for the $1,800 work, with your personal details redacted? And the same for the replacement quote.

Replaced brake pads and rear rotors and worse than before
1004ron replied to ewaters's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
Please post links to the several recalls that you mention. Brake wear rates differ vastly between owners and that's why all manufacturers new car warranty is so limited when it comes to brakes. My models brakes are the same as yours, and I just recently replaced my rear pads for the first time at 103K miles, and the original rotors are still in use.
