enigma-2 Posted April 16 Report Share Posted April 16 Changed the cabin air filter and engine air filter today. Old ones had been in for almost exactly 2 years. (Thats 16 years, in car years..... ) Took around 4 minutes for the cabin air filter, and around 10 minutes for the engine air filter. Had a hell of a time getting the air box clips back on. Became a test of willpower. Almost had the back clip on and it decided to pop off and fall under the car where I couldn't reach it easily. Finally retrieved it with a grabber and we had a long talk about why it shouldn't do that using boot camp language. It still resisted until I got a pair of large plyers and humiliated it. ... snort. Finished up by printing labels with the date and sticking on filter covers (cause I can't remember shit about when I do maintenance.)

Brandon123 Posted May 24 Report Share Posted May 24 Well guys this might be the end of my edge. The power steering doesn't work at low rpms, and it grinds, clanks, squeaks, and lunches when driving from a stop. It is leaking oil and and i believe it has transmission issues. She has been a great car for me but I just cant justify putting more money into it. I dont think I will be getting a nother ford edge so im sad to no longer be a ford edge owner or part of the community. Hope yalls ford edges last long and drive well. Fairwell. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

22CarbGrayElite Posted 4 hours ago Report Share Posted 4 hours ago (edited) I will sum up the last couple of weeks here… - Ordered a K&N cabin filter for it direct from K&N and installed that - Managed to lose a key fob and was able to find a new OEM Ford fob with the emergency key for $80 on eBay. Whipped out my Launch x431 IMMO Elite and after some updating and downloading, was able to delete all keys and reprogram my one fob and get the new one programmed. Took the E-key to the Ford dealership to cut it. $27 later, I am whole again. - From Rock Auto, I ordered Motorcraft plugs and coil pack boots, a dozen oil filters, a turbo oil supply line, and PCV hose to have as a spare (catch can plans in motion). Installed the plugs and boots, easy peasy. The supply line will go in eventually as I ordered it to see how the filter was set up and supposed to look. For $40, it was worth it. - From eBay, I ordered the engine cover and required hardware, a hood insulator, an owner’s manual, and the Ford dual horn used on the 15-18 Edge. Installed all of that yesterday, still waiting on the manual. - PTU and diff fluids are done. Got a couple more maintenance related things to take care of and then I can get to the fun stuff. On deck is window tint and all weather floor mats. Contemplating an ST style grill from eBay because they come with camera provisions and no ST badge. I have thought about getting an OEM ford grill, but it will say ST on it and since I don’t have an ST, I didn’t want to drive around pretending. I am open to opinions on this.
