Had this same exact issue but under the driver seat on my Edge.. Turns out it was from a day of fishing. One of my buddies thought it would be OK to just drop his line weight in my floor board. They are circular weights to it rolled into that air vent area... I heard it for about 1 day, until I couldn't handle it anymore.. On the way home to start ripping everything apart, my wife giggled and said, PUNCH THIS BAD BOY AND GET ON HER, maybe that weight will roll out of the vent.. Needless to say, I punched stella, and that damn weight rolled out and into the floorboard.. Fixed my problem! Give it a try.

Leave traction control on and turn overdrive OFF.

I see now that I didn't include the word "OFF" when typing for Overdrive.. For braking purposes, your owners manual will always state to have it in the OFF position. Your engine/RPMs may work a bit harder, so it sounds.. But its just working normal, accounting for a haul behind you!

I took the Edge up to Gatlinburg TN last year for Vacation. I know the winter in Gatlinburg TN is nothing like Colorado, but in the Smokey Mountains, It was pretty rough to me.. I am a Florida boy who has never seen snow. I was very impressed with the Yokohamas and how they responded well to the snow and traction. I would recommend them and personally, recommending a TIRE is a huge thing since they go hand and hand with Safety and ones life potentially.

Keep your traction control ON, Select for OVER DRIVE and you'll be fine. That Edge will pull a lot more than you think. With the towing package, you have a tranny cooler. All will be fine.

Ahh ok! With all state its a device that plugs into your port. 15$ really isn't worth the entire hassle if you ask me!

Religiously have them rotated every 5k miles.. I got the rims/tires from Discount Tire Co. Purchased the additional 3yr warranty on them, anything happens to them.. even potholes, they are replaced free of charge. Discount Tire, rotates and balances them every 5k miles and they are wearing so even, its beautiful.. Still as quiet as the day I got them. I have pics of them in my Gallery. Glad I could help!

I have the Yokohama Parada SPEC-X's on my Edge using 22" after market rims, TSW Snettertons.. Every tire shop I go into or dealer always compliments me on my rubber choice.. I have 25k on them right now and just had them rotated last week and was told that I just hit 1/2 life on them. They are very quiet, very aggressive as far as traction and look amazing. Overall cost was good as well.

V-TEC JUST KICKED IN YO!

With All-State and Progressive, you can log in daily to their website and review your stats.. The biggest complaint people have on these devices is that they NEVER hit the brakes hard, yet they get negative reviews on their stats for HARD BRAKING.. I personally didn't do it because All-State claims to give you a discount but the people who have done it, find its not a discount at all.. You get 10% off your Insurance Premium just for signing up, then a total of up too 20% more, equaling a total of 30%. But what they don't tell you is, its not 30% across the top.. Its 1% off here and there in different areas, but not off the total bill. All in all, people are only seeing a total of like 14$ off thier premium every 6 months.. To me that is bullshit, to have to have that device in my car for 90 days... ONLY 14$, LOL

Yeah, sometime you do and don't qualify.. I received the 750$ coupon for my 13' Fusion Titanium but wasn't able to use it, because I was given a credit of 1,000$ for some lease term.. They weren't able to combine the two.

Ludsey, Many members have mentioned that they received there 750$ coupon, just days after purchasing there vehicle. They mentioned they went back to the dealership and the dealership accepted the coupon, even after leaving with their vehicle. It's worth a shot.

Never had this problem personally but I had a buddy one time that did. It was a combination of a lot of things really.. Things we would never think of happening, but it was a build up of wax, rain x, other cleaners and bug grime and what not, even possibly some SAP, over time. What he did to fix the solution was paint thinner.. He took some paint thinner and put on a cloth, wiped the entire window down very good, let it dry and then wiped the window down with "alcohol" 2-3 times.. After this, the window was damn near brand new and he never had the problem again.

H&R is the only spring out there. Eibach had a spring for a while but they have since pulled it off the market. Steeda reps H&R and they are a very good brand. Many of forum members on here have used the H&R and swear by them. As for the shocks, there aren't any companies who make an aftermarket shock for the Edge. Not enough demand for them. Just use your stock shocks, they work fine and won't bottom out or give you any problems. Some members have even spoken that they don't need the alignment after doing, so you may be fine.

The cup holders are generally mastered and test fit for "fast food" restaurants and generic cup sizes, that you would house in your home.. They don't take into effect, customer sizes such as Vitamin water, etc. etc.

Same here, haha!

Price if hefty... This would be ideal on a lifted F-150... Front camera and rear camera. I would use it for backing my boat into the water, or getting my tow hitch in line.. As for the video while moving, my wife would enjoy that but not me, since i'd be driving. The aux features are pretty cool.. But again for the price, damn!

I assume these can be installed on the new 2013 Ford Fusion? The Sync with MFT in those models is the same?

Is this to prevent them from slinging shit all down the side of your car? I am not even kidding.. I get it everywhere. The shit is on my front bumper, the hood, the windows.. Every damn were. And I put the lightest coating on too.. Even my wife says I am skimping on the Gel! HAHA..

NVM, I couldn't get on the Pioneer website but was now able too. It seems that AVIC models are navigation and AVH models aren't. Seems the AVIC would be the better choice? Even though that x8500 looks sweet and seems to perform ok.

What is the difference in the Pioneer AVH and AVIC models? I hear the Avic-Z130BT was a beast machine but they don't make it anymore. The Z140BH was replacing it but I hear it sucks to the Z130

Agreed!

You can't always jump to conclusions sir.. You don't know how I drive so please don't insinuate.. I know that you are a wealth of knowledge, but treating others as if they don't know shit isn't fair at times. I read your negative tone inflection on a daily basis.. Stop and go has everything to do with it.. I can get 33MPG as well for about 5 minutes and then the numbers start to fall at the first sight of an off ramp.. In the city with stop and go, I get about 18mpg. Your conditions are different than mine, obviously but I am still just stating what I see. Just like the other members on the Fusion Forum. I am not alone here, so don't treat me like I am. The fuel tank capacity was just a jab at the fact that something is wrong yet again in the category of "fuel".. I have a 16.5 gallon tank but have never been able to put more than 11 gallons in the damn car, even when going 30 miles past 0.. Give me a break.. Damn! I edited this because I too at times, can input negative tone inflection into my comments. I try not too so after walking away and retyping some of this.. I feel that the above should be mentioned.. I have sat back and watched it for far too long!

To do all of that, i'd just water cool the system and be done with it..
