  1. I'm going to take one more try at using a block of wood and extend the pistons more than 3-4mm. That's my weekend job.
  2. Here's what I tried today: Removed the wheels, confirmed that the calipers did move inboard/outboard easily by hand, confirmed the pads did not stick in their mountings, installed a block of wood in place of the pads and extended the pistons approx 3-4mm, reinstalled calipers and bled the front calipers. Same thing, outer pads don't contact rotors.
  3. I don't understand, the pistons are on the inboard of the rotor and that's the side that was not in full contact.
  4. After having the front wheel off to fix a flat I noticed the inside of both rotors were rusty and the pads not fully contacting the inside surface of the rotors, outer surface of the rotors were fine. I removed the rotors and had them turned, cleaned the slide clips of the pads, cleaned the pads were they fit onto the clips, and lubed the slide pins. Now after 200 miles, I see that the outer surface of the rotors has minimal pad contact. The car is the Front wheel drive and is a Limited model, does anyone else have this occuring?
  5. I have a 2008 Edge Limited and was driving the other day when it started to rain. I was using the Interval wiper function and swirched to the low speed wiper function; however it went to the high speed. All I have is interval or high speed wipers, is that normal?
