Nice upgrade!

I looked at the estimate and reached out to the adjuster because I did notice quite a few things missing. I asked about the strut, tire and wheel not being on the estimate and he said that the strut appeared to be okay and that they usually "float" and don't suffer damage. He also said the tire and wheel looked okay. Which I know isn't right. My tire went flat during the collision and that's where the impact primarily took place.

Insurance so far has said the strut looked okay. But we will find out when they start the repair.

Recently got in an accident with my Edge. Right now the estimated repair cost is 6 grand. That's without a new tire, the rim being re-finished or the r/f strut. All which suffered damage from the accident. I have BC racing coil overs on it right now. My hopes are they replace it with the correct parts and not some cheap aftermarket stuff.

Monroe or any current model New Strut Bad out the box
Blk22Edge replied to EdgeAWD's topic in 2009 Edge & MKX
Monro quality has gone down the tubes. They used to be so good but we don't even use them at my shop anymore. -
2020 Edge Titanium Battery Recommendation...
Blk22Edge replied to DNBush's topic in 2019-Current Edge & Nautilius
Wondering how the OP worked out with the new battery and which one they went with. My 22 Edge keeps going into "battery saver mode" and it was a sluggish start for it today. (-5 degrees Fahrenheit) But whenever it gets below freezing I get the battery saver mode message. I'm not a fan of Big box store batteries. Thinking of going OEM but not sure. Mine uses the AGM battery. -
2008 Edge AWD - loud noise - wheel bearing?
Blk22Edge replied to ADC's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
A trick I've learned is to get all 4 wheels off the ground and spin them by hand while holding onto the spring or another nearby suspension component. A lot of the time you'll be able to actually feel the bad bearing. -
Those couple seconds before it switches to FM, does it play the preview channel or is there no sound at all? There may be an issue internally with the radio or the Satellite antenna. I'd lean towards an issue internally with the radio though. You may have to swap it out with either a new aftermarket head unit or a used factory head unit.
-
When you say switching, do you mean when you select Satellite, it immediately goes back to FM? Or does it switch between the two on its own? Also, does it switch back to FM if you select AM or another source?

2008 Edge AWD - loud noise - wheel bearing?
Blk22Edge replied to ADC's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
I'd rotate the tires. If the noise moves, then you have found your problem. If it stays the same, then there's something else going on. But the rotational noise you're getting could just be bad tires. -
20s may be easier to find than 19s but I agree that the tire may not do so well off road. Could always get your stock rims painted!

I'm running Goodyear Assurance WeatherReady 2 tires on my Edge. They're the 245/60R18 and I have finally been able to drive them in the snow and they are phenomenal! What are you using? What are your thoughts on how they do in rain? Snow?

Mine is a 22 SEL. I lowered it using BC racing coilovers & sprayed the wheels black

I have a black Edge and one of the first mods I did was change the grill black!
