  1. The cover does not have to be removed to change the oil.
  2. Powerstop got back to me and blew me off. Basically, all rotors rust, so whats the problem. This is what they say about the coating on their site. "Evolution coating for maximum protection against rust & corrosion" They do not make any disclaimer about rust. No asterisk! So their coating is a complete waste of money. Lesson learned.
  3. Update. From a performance standpoint I am very happy with the Powerstop rotors and pads. I am not sure what to think about the amount of rust I am seeing on their "Fully Coated" rotors. I sent them an email with this picture. It will be interesting to see what they say. I think this is an unacceptable amount of rust on rotors that I installed 9 months ago. I would like to hear what others think?
  4. I did end up cutting it. Only the two sides that face the engine are insulated. I cut it on the firewall side and cable tied it to the battery.
  5. Did you get a new blanket or just install the new battery without it?
  6. The one above is the "L" version, which is longer then the normal Edge. They also make the normal size Edge. Both are related to the Lincoln Nautilus, which is of course available in the US.
  7. It looks like Ford is selling the Chinese Edge in the Caribbean and Asian regions. https://www.caribe.ford.com/en/sur/suvs/edge/
  8. I agree with DGW. I have no interest in the Bronco or the Explorer. Over the years I had three Edges for my company car and we now own two in our retirement. The Edge was the perfect vehicle for us. Its a shame that Ford has abandoned so many loyal customers.
  9. I have this fantasy that Ford will bring the Edge back to the US now that their push to electric cars has stalled. I will admit it is pretty unlikely.
  10. I would pull the light out and disconnect the power. Probably a good idea to secure the loose wiring somewhere.
  11. I think it is reasonable to think that the full PSCM AsBuilt is different between models. However it is not unreasonable to think that many sections are the same. Code is often recycled. Not need to re-type all the code needed when you have a large percentage of it already written. Most of the hardware used in the electrical system is the same. With each modules firmware customized for the model it is used in.
  12. I used the Forscan method that Omar posted in this thread on June 12 of 2021. No start stop and no BMS warning.
  13. Well I have a little egg on my face. The offer was legit and it is a Ford program. I still did not like how things started where I was pushed to talk to sales. Out of curiosity, I did call them. The person I talked to was pleasant and helpful, not at all what I expected. The big problem is the cost, $2400 a year for my 2019 with 95K. I get that that age and mileage are factors in the cost. I don't think I am going to do it. But it has given me something to think about.
  14. I just got a notice from Ford that I could extend my Blue Advantage service plan. I least I think it was from Ford. I go to the web site and put in the reference number I got from them. It would not work, there was a problem. The message said I should join a Chat to resolve the issue. Of course they wanted my email address, for no good reason. When I got on line with the Chat lady I was told that she could not solve the issue and that I needed to talk to one of there sales reps. I wonder if this web site works at all or if it is designed to fail so I have to call one of their sales reps. A high pressure sales rep, I am sure. This is total BS and makes me want to buy anything but a Ford for my next car. When did flat out lying to your customers become standard business practice.
