  1. Checked Tire pressure,temp 22 deg F,pressure was 32 psi raised to 35 psi,refueled,added Lucas Top Cyl oil,Drove about 2 miles to Southern State Pkwy,(New York) Drove about 65 miles to exit 64,Snow and wind conditions, mileage was 25.2,avg speed 65-70,last 15 miles about 55 mph on the return trip,roads were snow covered,high winds,65 mph avg,down to 50 until I passed the snow plows,Mileage was 24.2 mpg,car has 5570 miles,Edge Limited AWD,Marty
  2. Thanx Lex,my Touareg has Bi-zenon lights and the flash to pass are Hoen Zenon match H7 70 watt,a terrific combo,even though I didn't do the six gun salute,which allows Zenon high,and flash to pass on with the fog's, Marty
  3. It seems that the Edge transmits sounds thru the suspension,when the road surfaces change,when you drive over hard packed snow spots,I get the same brake grinding sounds also,Marty
  4. Happy,Healthy,Prosperous NEW YEAR to all,Marty
  5. Is there an optional power gate kit,from Ford or Aftermarket?TIA, Marty
  6. Goldy,What was the build date? The change over from the FL400 to the FL500 was 01/16/2009, my 2010 build date was 06/09,Marty Also check your owners manual for filter application number,400/500.
  7. Goldy,I found the FL 500 at parts authority in my area(NY) and paid wholesale $6.25,Check Walmart oil prices are $20 for 5 qts of Penzoil Platnimum Synthetic and the will be getting the Fl 500 shortly,It's a new Item ,Marty
  8. I have a 2010 Limited with the ebony interior,haven't really noticed windshield glare, but the chrome levers on the A/C vents reflect into both side view mirrors,Marty
  9. Lexol cleaner and conditioner,Murphy's oil soap is an excellent cleaner preservative,Connely's hide food (extra) another ,just bought ICE but haven't tried it ,Marty
  10. The leading pad will wear more than the other creating space and a lower pedal,air in the system will cause a spongy pedal,air is compressible ,hydraulic fluid is not. I have a 2010 Limited 3000 miles,the brake pedal is 3/4" from the top and firm since I applied pressure while standing still,Marty
  11. Try stepping on the brake pedal several times when not moving,will reduce the pad clearances to the rotors and centralize the calipers and the pedal will be closer to the top,and won't be as mushy, Marty
  12. That is typical of most Ford products - not sure why. The only upgrade I know of that seems to help is braided stainless steel brake lines. Soft hoses will cause this ,try bleeding brake system,could also be air,Marty
  13. Look in the owners manual I read some mention of programming up to 8 Keys,Marty
  14. Nick,I agree,I use Lucas upper cylinder lube every tankful,Years ago I used A marvel mystery oil injector,1 quart per 1000 miles ,had a ford V8 with over 100000 miles and when taken apart every one said they never saw cleaner valves,I still have a brand new marvel injectir,Marty
  15. I have a 2010 Edge Limited How do I know if there is a factory installed alarm ,I tried locking the car and opening the door ,nothing happened,dealer sales person said that car is protected but not contents,TIA Marty
  16. Have you checked for a battery drain or also tested battery after charging with a load tester,and the charging voltage while running:13.8/14.2 volts,you may be exceeding alternator output by adding all the amps,check your charging circuit,Marty

    Oil Filter

    PXB006,I have a 2010 Edge Limited changed the oil at 2225 miles and found the same problem,the p 3600 and the Fl 400 A threads were too small to fit ,I am trying to find the correct filter number,for the 2010,the Oem filter has no part numbers,Marty K&N K33HP2009 filter has a 1"x 16 tpi,Thread Fram PH3600 has a 3/4"x16 tpi.Thread FL 500 For V6 3.5L after 1/16/2009 thread size 22 mmX 1.5mm
  20. The VAG.Com cable to connect to the OBD port on my Touareg has 2 rows of 8 pins that would match that connector ,the plug on the Touareg is recessed,I will try to match tomorrow,Marty
  21. What is the electrical connector above the brake pedal for? TIA Marty
  22. Has anyone wired the power to a radar detector thru the auto dimming mirror hole where the wire comes out in the overhead console? How does the overhead light module come out,is a straight pull down or does it have concealed screws holding it in place,TIA,Marty
  23. My 2010 Edge key has only 3 buttons,anyone know if the 4 button will work,TIA Marty Checked the web site he offers 3 button keys..
