 Looks like I ruffles some feathers here but whether he meant it or not, I took it as a insult. HIs first post replying to mine in the Welcome thread no less is that I am "Curmudgeonly". I take a bit more offense that when I threw it back at him, the reply I get here is I am not supposed to insult a member, but yet the member insulted me first. You guys all may know him , but I don't.  All I asked was about the personal questions, particularly  my interests and that it is a requirement to be filled in and not seen by members. The only reason I see for asking that, is for data collection for advertisers.

Curmudgeonly | Definition of Curmudgeonly at Dictionary.com

a bad-tempered, difficult, cantankerous person. ... frugal, miserly, thrifty, greedy, selfish, boorish, dour, sullen, rude, testy, ugly, morose, irritable, grouchy, grumpy, crusty, ornery, cantankerous, efficient, cost-effective.

Understood.  lets restart here man, welcome to the forums.  Your data is not being sold here, and the site asks about vehicle and general location information so the group can see what you own (Gen1, 1.5, 2, etc) so we can give you appropriate tech data to fix what ever problems that may arise or general info to make it more applicable to your specific chassis.  As for the location, it also lets us volunteer our time and expertise to lend a physical hand if need be.  @onyxbfly is a perfect example of this, he lives about 2 hours from us and we were able to greatly assist him and teach him things!  Wouldnt have known if he didnt have "US Northeast".

Sorry for the rough start man, again, welcome and i hope you find what you are looking for here.

HONESTLY WORTH EVERY PENNY !

I HAVE USED THEIR TUNER ON 2 EDGE SPORTS + A FUSION SPORT.

INCREDIBLE DIFFERENCE

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU GO FOR IT 

BEST SINGLE CHANGE YOU CAN MAKE TO BRING A SMILE TO YOUR FACE.

MY LAST EDGE I HAD OVER 100K ON IT, WITH NO ISSUES 

ART K

 

A little excited are we ?

Livernois aint bad, enjoy and have fun!

The ST trans was a big mistake..... all they needed to do was take the Sport and apply all the handling changes and tune to it and be done.....oh and not add 200lbs.....

I'll take a swing at this one.  You're asked for the year because people are notoriously bad about identifying the year of their Edge when asking questions.  That creates delays when other members try to help and have to ask "what year/generation is your car?"  Or worse, give you a wrong answer.  I notice you didn't fill in the year of your Edge so expect to be asked at some point when you have a question (or you can go back and change it in your profile).  You have to fill in the word "Edge" because the system is automated and can't add that on its own. 

As for the other 'interests' info, I suspect the sysops just try to get a feel for their memberships personalities.  Based on your post everyone now knows you're a curmugeonly type.     Offer some positive posts and creative ideas...prove me wrong. 

Cheers!
 

I will not admit that i have to google curmudgeonly........

 Just signed up but have a few questions now  I Belong and have belonged to several automotive related forums but upon joining this  particular one, why do they ask for you "interests" and then say its a requirement and not visible to other users, only  seen by staff and myself?  Is my info now being sold from this site to participate here?  Other question that seems a little goofy as this is  Ford Edge forum , why do they ask the year of your car and then ask your current car ?

well arent we full of questions ;-).  

Maybe @akirby can help!

I've been in my Edge ST now for a bit over two months and have enjoyed every minute of ownership so far.  It replaced a 2016 BMW X1 and the ST blows it away in almost every aspect except a few fit & finish details (I found a few small paint imperfections and the driver side rear taillight housing gets condensation in it and it squeaks against the rear fender).  But otherwise the engine, performance, comfort, and technology, have all exceeded my expectations!

 

My other vehicle is a 2006 Volvo S60R.  I find a similarity with the Edge ST in that they are both "wolves in sheep's clothing"... and RARE.  I am a contributor at the S60R swedespeed.com forum and we have a thread for S60R sightings.  It seems silly... but we get all giddy when we see another S60R on the road or even in a parking lot - kinda like a unicorn sighting!  And we occasionally get a "That was me!" reply. LOL

 

I have yet to see another Edge ST on the road.  Has anyone come across another ST other than at the dealership lot?  

 

 

You should Sport to this too ?

I have a clunk noise when I turn my steering wheel left or right when in park. There was a clicking on drivers side when turning. Left sometimes the cv half shaft  was changed but the clunk is still there 

Please keep your posts to one thread and not spam the forum.  @akirby can delete this or your other one.

but to reiterate if your are hitting locks it could be the locks or your tierods

Thanks.  With the Mustang having an 11.4 hp/lb vs 14.0 for the Sport, the EB should have the advantage.  Unless I figure out the proper use of a 'tune', then I would apply to both.  Both are great driving cars.

Look at my sig.  EB mustangs are a fun chew toy for the edge when setup properly. 

Welcome!  It will beat up on your EB mustang if you play your cards right ?

OMG !!!!   if I read that correctly that is just over 480HP and 550 TQ at the Wheels!!!   Assuming  23% parasitic loss thats around 595 Horse Power and a whopping 676 Torque at the flywheel.  

Congratulations are in order . 

i mean....who doesnt want a 600hp edge ?

Special_K and Snmjim achieved this incredible record with bolt on parts that they helped develop, test and bring to market, Now it is easy for anyone to follow in their footsteps with just a phone call or click and build a 500HP Edge Sport. What they have done is not just a personal victory but one for the entire Edge community .

Hell ya brother!  thank you!

Special_K, may i request that you add a full list of the mods done to your Edge in the signature?  I know the parts list for the 2.7 is published, but I am not sure exactly what all is done specifically to yours.  The list is so long that when I am asked to recite it, I constantly keep leaving items off of it!

 

TYVMIA!

Added to OP.  I just added the engine mods

See topic above. My local Ford deal did a diagnostic and could not pinpoint the issue. Drove it around as well. Frustrating. I love my 2010 Ford Edge but this noise sounds serious. I'm ready to ditch it and Ford as well. Ridiculous.

Please record and upload to you tube and post a link.  we can better diagnose this way
