    • I am glad it works out for you and assists you, thank you for your service!   I think I am the only veteran in my immediate circle that doesn't draw some level of disability. My neighbor is 50% for sleep apnea, my brother in law for sleep apnea and back issues at 80%. It is funny (ironic maybe) to hear they use a CPAP because it phones home and if they don't use it they might lose benefits. I see some that their only assistance is the VA and I thought my health care was bad, in regards to being seen or level of care.   I got jerked around when I got out, and really didn't want anything to with the bureaucracy of it all. I am proud I served, and don't shy away from that, but having sub par work done while in, fixed on paper while still broken, no thanks. I decided I might get my Veterans ID for free admission to national parks, that is about as far as I will go.   Pretty sure stuff from the Gulf War  (fatigue, chronic muscle pain, attention span, sleep, etc) and my severe hearing loss are related to my time served.
    • Just thought I'd talk to any fellow vets on the site. I go to the VA once a year for an annual physical, assigned to a great Nurse Practioner (she's as tough as any Marine I ever served with.) I use my Medicare for my medical but still maintain my VA status with an annual physical. (May drop my Part D drug plan and got with the VA next year inasmuch as all Plan D's are raising their rates, deductibles and moving drugs from lower to higher tiers in the formulary.    She's been on me for a few years to file for disability. Don't believe that I'm disabled, but she finally talked me into filing for Agent Orange exposure, loss of hearing and tendinitis. Sent me to several doctors at different places and got results showing that I'm 80% disabled.  (80% rating is worth $2k a month. Tax free.)   So the purpose of this is, if your a vet, you're entitled to VA Health care. Get a full blood panel and complete physical. You can get your prescriptions through the VA (really cheap) plus a bunch of other stuff, like insurance (can apply up to age 80,  no underwriting) college (for the younger guys, etc.)   So if you're a vet and not hooked up with the VA, look into it. You earned it.
    • When I wrote this I forgot that I also had a similar problem on my 09 MKX. Passenger seat would go back but not forward. Replaced the switch assembly and has worked perfectly ever since. 
    • Wanted to ask if you ended up figuring it out ? Was doing a 15 sport and I did get the original out.. but the new one simply won’t go in .. same things you mentioned about the front bushing being cocked and making it difficult to line up. I know it’s been a while but just took a break thought I’d do some searching  . 
    • Closing had different conditions than opening. Most issues are related to the sensors (they don't come into play during opening.)   Other than that, it really sounds like the homelink is sending the wrong close code. Try resyncing the homelink unit with the opener. If the door opens ok with homelink, try staying in the same space a d closing. If it still doesn't close, I really suspect a paring problem.
    • I'm planning on replacing all 3 mounts. I know I should get oem but should I get them from a good dealership or is there another cheaper route that isn't aftermarket? Appreciate the help.  Thanks!
    • Welcome.   I doubt that its financially viable to spend $5800 on a 2007 model, and that wouldn't be an engine overhaul.   The head gasket sealer is hit and miss, but you've got nothing to lose, go for it.
    • Hi. new to the forum. I have an 07 Edge, I had to have the water pump replaced (there was coolant mixed with the oil). On my way home after picking it up it started to over heat. got it towed home. The next day towed back to the shop. 2 days later found out it was the thermostat. they replaced it and test drove it got hot again . BLOWN HEAD GASKET. How is that even possible The Water pump was $2700 and they want $5800 to do the head gasket it is not worth it. I can't afford that. I stuck $2700 into it and it is worthless. I have a bottle of head gasket sealer, should i use it?
