  1. Sometimes the most obvious sources are neglected, and in mine most of the times the rattle noise comes from the seat belt buckle hitting the side of the wall, try to cover it on foam and see if this helps....
  2. I now that the dealers and manuals recommend regular gas, and I have a question for you guys, not sure but the Regular gas is supposed to have less additives than the Premium, according to what is said, right? Well I used to work in a gas station for some time and every-time we compare the three kinds of gas, the regular gas was always darker in color, like brownish, yellowish, and always stinks, the premium was always a lot more transparent, I do not now if any additive that cleans the color of the gas, making it more transparent, all the opposite. All of them are darker, how is that possible? Also and not sure why but the regular gas is always more dirty, like more opaque...and all the cars that usually use regular gas, the gas filters were always a lot dirtier than the ones using premium while replaced in our shop... On my old Taurus, a 2000, with 125,000 miles on it, but still working very nice, with regular gas the knocking is really noticeable, with premium, dead silent, something is going on, not sure why? It seems that not all regular gas is the same along the US, or maybe it is not stored with the same care as the more expensive ones...BTW they reco also regular gas on the taurus....
  3. Does anybody know if Ford has found any really feasible working solution for that problem yet? Any PDF with the info of the service bulletin that we can use ot show the dealer what to do, or at least what to look for?
  4. You will not get the title till you pay it in full, the bank holds the title, I think that you can refinance it though, even without it...
  5. Right now I think that is mandatory by law, mainly all gas stations all along the US are dispensing the gas with 10% ethanol on it (E-87), in all three kinds...I have seen the same stupid stickers on the pumps of the 10% along the whole year. Anyway I got mine in september, and it has now around 1100 miles, I have not been able to get more than 11-12 mpg using regular gas (87 octane) driving on the city...
  6. X2...I sent a PM to you as well, iKONA. I'm intersted in the vapor silver ones...
  7. Hi Guys I recently purchased an Edge SEL, and unfortunately regardless of having parking in my home and in my office there is no way I could avoid the bumpers from getting "touched and blessed" by careless/bad drivers, I was trying to get on line a decent solution to that problem but other than sitting someone inside the car while it is parked I do not see any other... Do you have any experiences with any retailer that sell and install those chromed bars, on the front and back at least to avoid the paint to get chipped? Any reco of a custom made product or any store that could provide them? Any help will be really appreciated...
