What to expect at 200,000+ miles
WWWPerfA_ZN0W replied to macbwt's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
I'm sure the OC will be well into the 300's by then -
The power points are ALWAYS ON. The OM for the 2007 & 2011 both state that nothing active should be left plugged in too long when engine is not running, otherwise the battery runs the risk of being discharged.

What to expect at 200,000+ miles

Haven't checked for overlap in labor between the two processes, but if there isn't much, then doing it separately should work fine. If you can determine what seems to be causing the majority of the movement, I'd take care of that first. Maybe your trusted mechanic can help with that determination? -
Pic?

What to expect at 200,000+ miles
WWWPerfA_ZN0W replied to macbwt's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
OEM is relatively expensive, but then, truthfully, I haven't heard much good about Anchor parts. They die easily! That's why I had the original mounts on my '95 rebuilt instead. Don't see that option for the Edge yet. I checked Levittown's site and saw TWO engine mounts listed, the FSM shows only one: No. Part # Part # / Description List Price Price 1 8T4Z-6038-A 8T4Z-6038-A / FRONT MOUNT, RIGHT $175.90 $119.26 2 7A1Z-6038-AA 7A1Z-6038-AA / FRONT MOUNT, LEFT $136.23 $ 92.37 Transmission Mount (build date dependent) but the B part should be fine for all: 9 8T4Z6068A 8T4Z6068A / TRANS MOUNT TO 1/10/08 UNAVAILABLE 9 8T4Z-6068-B 8T4Z-6068-B / TRANS MOUNT $91.53 $62.06 FROM 1/11/08 -

No question some trans mounts at least are in order. That deer hit probably pushed it over the ..... -
Fingers crossed there are no leaks to deal with! Hopefully just underfilled at the factory ...

A little offtopic, but where are you moving to, tamugrad?

If it's the motor mounts, then if you watch the engine when you have it in Park or Neutral and rev it, the engine will move a bit. That's the easiest way to tell. If the subframe bushings are shot, then you will find it "noisy"/clunky especially when accelerating into turns, but hard acceleration for sure. -
For the EcoBoost engines, yes. I think it is still 5W20 for the NA engines.

A. Battery issues - still original, or did you have it changed recently? B. Ignition cylinder issues - would need to be replaced C. Key fob battery issues - unlikely but worth a shot if A & B don't provide a solution.

It's possible the check valve in the booster is going bad. You should be able to get at least one good pump out of the brakes after shutoff. After than, lack of vacuum would create lack of assist i.e. stiff pedal feel. Brake BoosterThe power brake actuation system includes a vacuum assisted brake booster, vacuum check valve, vacuum hose and aspirator. The vacuum hose delivers engine vacuum to the vacuum check valve. The vacuum check valve is a one-way valve that allows engine supplied vacuum to the booster, and closes when engine vacuum is removed. The brake booster utilizes engine vacuum to reduce the amount of effort required at the brake pedal to actuate the foundation brakes.

Answeres for all Audio/Video questions

Sounds like the unit is shorting and needs to be replaced. Still under warranty? -
Happy with their product for my '07 so far

Sounds like a real lemon, mjb, but certainly not characteristic of the entire Edge line or the Ford offerings. Unfortunately this is a 3-part game: Ford, dealership & customer. Any of those parts doesn't play well, and you end up with a bad experience
