  1. So after taking it to the dealership and having them look at it, it ended up just being a code that was cleared by the technician within 15 minutes of being in there. Thank God it wasn't anything more serious. Half an hour labour and I was out of there!!
  2. Thanks, will definitely try to check clip inside the socket. I have almost 9 volts running to each headlight lead after testing it with a voltage meter, which tells me I am running out of options.
  3. I bought an HID headlight Pkg, with ballasts and all, ran them for a year. After the first bulb burnt out the second went within two weeks. I decided to go back to an OEM setup and bought Sylvania Ultra Star bulbs. After installing and turning them on the headlights didn't work. Since then I've done the following: Checked connections Checked fuses Checked wiring Will be checking voltage with multimeter Disconnected battery in hopes to reset something My dealership isn't the most trust worthy so I'd like to know as much as possible before I go in so they don't pull a fast one and say i need a new wiring harness. Anyone else had this issue? Heard about taking it in to get the cpu flashed? And about the Smart Junction Box being faulty. May have to buy two new HID bulbs and see if they work, but rather bring it to back to OEM.
  4. I went to an HID headlight set up, after the first bulb burnt out the second went within two weeks. Deciding to go back to an OEM setup I went out and purchased the Slyvania Ultra Star bulbs. I installed them with great care and they did not turn on. After that I've checked the following: Fuses #7 & 8...ok Second set of bulbs Wiring...without a multimeter, but will All other lights on the vehicle are operating as they should. Tried disconnecting the battery in hopes to reset the system. There is talk about a new Smart Junction Box on some forums Any help would be great...! Anyone experience the same issue?? My local dealer isn't the most trust worthy so i'd like to go in with as much info as possible. They will probably say i need a new wiring harness! They are bad, anything to make more money! Hate them!!
  5. My new flip key works great, I just finished installing it. Use the directions that are sent with the key. You'll be done in 30 seconds!!
  6. Thanks guys for all your input, I will definitley keep it in mind as I do my P.M. I did pick up our new Edge, to my amazement everything went well and the vehicle was in perfect condition even down to the rubber insert in the cup holders!! :happy feet: Put on about 75km this weekend, the only question I would have is if anyone else experienced the same as me. In the info display between the Tach and Speedo you can have the Liters/100kms displayed. Sometimes it would show a very high number. Is that because the vehicle isn't broken in yet? I will post some pics as the weather gets warmer and the construction across the street subsides!! Still wish that they offered HID lights, push start button and rain sensing wipers!
  7. Is it just a decent wax they put on?? What about the Leather protection? I know they are Scotchgaurding the floors for me... Anyways...they told me I can pick it up on Saturday...two more sleeps!!
  8. I actually had paint protection on my 2003 Honda Civic and I did not have any paint problens and the car was never waxed. After I washed it it looked like it came off the showroom floor...ask the neighbors!! :stats:
  9. some people get that thrown in for free and I got other items thrown in for free!
  10. Basically the base price for the AWD Limited went down to $39,169 and I negotiated for a bit more, with the following: Vista roof ($1850), trailer pkg ($500), remote start( incl.), rubber floor mats (incl.), 20" wheels ($800), White titanium metallic paint ($300), $799 for the electronic rust prevention module with paint and leather protection. $1000 off for the COSTCO promo, + freight, pdi, gas tax, gst, pst. and $299 for the transaction. Hope this helps, Still waiting patiently!
  11. The day the wife and I went to the dealership to test drive the Edge that we both agreed on that we liked, the only thing missing was the trailer pkg. Sales guy said he'd send the truck out to get one put on in and it would be ready for pick up in a day or two! I thought to myself, "is this guy for real?" Does he not know that you get a few more things out of the trailer hitch than just the hitch its self? What about the upgraded battery, upgraded cooling fan, engine oil cooler and HD rad? He told me that they usually already have them on most Edge's. After that, I changed my tune and let him know that I'd rather have it built and put in at the factory. I actually got lucky because two days later I was able to go back and sign the deal and the $1000 Costco promo just started, so I saved another $1000 on top of the X-Plan I got to use from my company! I guess I got luck when they let me know just after New Years that it should be at the dealership the week on the 25th of January. It's only a 5 week waiting period. Hopefully everything goes well and their isn't any problems!!! Still not that happy about the salesguy trying to pull a fast one on me!!
