    Glad to hear the miscreant injector was found & addressed! Did you take pics of the old plugs by any chance? Try returning the TPS and TB?

    There is a classifieds listing for wheels, if you are interested in that. Chrome clad covers CAN be removed http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/13714-chrome-clad-covers-can-be-removed/ if you think you like the "after" look, you can go that route. You could also fit 2010+ Taurus SHO or MKS or Explorer 20" wheels on your Edge. Make sure the center bore on the wheels is the same. There are many reputable vendors in the "truck" wheel business, KMC is a popular one. TSW wheels are also great choices. If you search on "new wheels" on this site you will see what people have chosen as aftermarket replacements. You can gaze at endless wonder here: http://www.carid.com/2013-ford-edge-limited-wheels/ I like to sort by highest ratings/lowest price etc. But I am partial to Foose Outkast because they look kinda like the 2013+ Taurus SHO wheels

    I assume you are in Canada, Shannon, since it says 23 degrees Seriously though, does it say 23 Celsius or 23 Farenheit? Do you know what all they tried to do to fix the issue? Has the Edge been in any front end incidents lately? The sensor is usually in the engine compartment, behind the front bumper cover. It could be that the sensor, APIM or the CCM is involved and has to be replaced, but it might help to pull fuses (#37 in the passenger compartment fuse panel for instance) first. Believe it or not, a weak/bad battery can also do funky things. So have that checked (by modern testers). Try resetting everything with a pull of the negative battery cable for about 30 minutes.

    Being kept in the dark can be awfully frustrating! I don't know if this is a reflection of the frustration Ford itself feels or what. Considering the setbacks they have had with the new MY Edge, there must be something big going on to merit such a blackout. I don't know if they could open communications simply by signing their customers to an NDA of some sort. xbillmh, I hope they get you a vehicle produced as close to actual delivery as possible, so it has not been sitting on the lot for a prolonged period. That'd be only right. They should recognize your patience and "reward" you accordingly.

    Well, can't say they didn't try!

    There might be some Dremel-tool-based appicators out there, and that would definitely help the correction be more even. But for tight spaces, usually the best route is to take a good microfiber cloth (or glove) and some finishing polish like Meguiar's 205 (since the haze/swirls are not bad yet), add elbow grease. No idea on the Mother's Powerball for this app. There are a few user reviews, mostly good. Not quite for paint, but these tools do exist: http://www.amazon.com/Anytime-Tools-MANIFOLD-ALUMINUM-Stainless/dp/B000HW9G6K/

    Just what the Dr ordered, thanks to Charles-Eric! http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/11753-upgrade-the-headlights-to-auto-light/ I know it's for a 2011, but maybe the 2010 is similar.

    I used Stoner's Invisible Glass, works pretty well.

    Failing headlamp switch?

    Can you believe that the SHO/MKS actually have an electronic noisemaker in lieu of a BOV???

    LOL ... Yeah, the tech constantly gets better, and usually to our benefit. The only problem I have is that because a lot of these systems do their work quietly in the background, when a trouble spot does arise, it can leave you high & dry because you have NO idea what to do. That's one of the reasons I get extended warranties, just easier to plan that way for me

    It is if you want them to last. I suppose you could skip it if you are quite sure the alignment is spot-on, or if you drive on glass-smooth roadways. But those are a distant memory now, even with new roads or resurfaced roads ...

    Best of luck, Weltyed!

    The 2011+ have adaptive tunes from the factory, so they can take advantage of different grades of gasoline. But if the engine has a problem, you might be running on tables for 89 or 91 gasoline when you have actually 93 in the tank. But if the engine is running well, then definitely, more powah, more mpg, hooray!

    Making progress ... I hope ... at least they are working with you and there are no hits to the pocket!

    If you have AWD, always replace all 4 tires, as a rule. If you have FWD, 2 at a time is fine. If only replacing 2 tires, new tires should go on the back in a FWD vehicle, to give them time to break in properly. At the next scheduled rotation, the new tires will be ready to serve as the driven tires. Alignment whenever you get tires is a must.

    Great pic of the Edge btw, Machan Why do you think the fuel economy is worse in the GCC, omar? Is it the constant high heat/dust in the air/etc?

    I am sure Lulubelle will thrive under your care, mac Nice to know blueberry was well taken care of.

    Is that really you, Todd? Nice to see you on here!

    Do drain & fills at short intervals initially. As it thins out with each fill, should be easier to pump out more. Measure how much you are putting back in each time, if you can get the stated capacity out, that'd be perfect! You do have to use a flexible hose to get to the bottom. Like these kits: http://amzn.com/B000CMDPBM http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_x_22973737-P_x_x http://www.amazon.com/dp/B006AZKBO4

    Definitely check out the PTU fluid then. It uses 75w140 gear lube (specs in owner's manual). More useful info regarding the PTU in this thread: http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/10914-ptu-leak-failures/

    Replace the brake booster? That'd be my first thought.
