Did you grease the caliper slide pins also? If they are not moving freely, that can cause this problem. Also, as mentioned above, the pads may need to seat properly. Some pads are noisier than others. What are you using?

No, unfortunately. The site is set up for 1 album per member.

Can't miss the difference!

Welcome, HOTLANTA Edge owner Details on your ride? Pix too please Many a merry mile may you post on it!

Welcome, welcome, welcome Post up some pics of both your rides, would love to see them! I think there is some info regarding DRL plugs for SE models in Daytimebritelight-related threads. Dan (kc300c) also has videos on YouTube on installing his DRL products.

Welcome, nice present you gave yourself Like the shot of the grill, outstanding. 2014? AWD?

Welcome to the forum, RJS, and congrats on your outstanding new ride! Keep us updated on how you fare with it

Ok, here's where you can find the warranty guide: http://www.fordservicecontent.com/Ford_Content/catalog/owner_guides/11frdwa6e.pdf Top of Pg 11 is what you need I think. 2011 Ford Edge Warranty guide.pdf

Pretty sure it's not unless you have at least ExtraCare level ESP from Ford (or maybe WarrantyDirect?). It is specifically listed under ExtraCare (and PremiumCare) coverage as (Bearings - Front & Rear Wheel Drive Axle Hubs). But worth asking about.

I'm glad at least the A/C etc problems have been fixed. The mechanic should be able to tell if there were obvious signs of abuse that led to their early demise. Anyhoo ... I am guessing you will have to take the noise issue to your trusted mechanic, sadly. The only good thing about paying for it at a Ford dealership is you will get a 2 year warranty out of it. Hopefully you'd never need to use it!

Welcome, great looking Edge, RJS! Put an intro for yourself in a new topic here: http://www.fordedgeforum.com/forum/10-welcome-forum/ We'd love to hear more about how you came to choose the Edge, what you plan to do to it, as well as your experiences over time

Welcome to the community, and congrats on your ride! Time to check whether all the scheduled maintenance has been done to this Edge. Hopefully, it just needs new spark plugs and PCV valve! The clunk could be a stabilizer bar bushing, control arm bushing, tie rod, strut mount, etc.

You can switch back, no problem, as it is OEM requirement anyway. Why did you put in synthetic and why do you want to switchback, just curious.

Wow, nice!

Could be a malfunctioning blend door, linkage, or a bad EATC unit. You can check to see if there are on-demand codes or continuous codes set in the EATC. As far as airflow, closing the louvers does not close off any part of the ductwork, so the air is being recirculated back into the system, and ends up on the passenger side. Apparently this recirculation is too much for the auto temp to overcome. This procedure is for a 2007, hopefully still applies to a 2012: EATC Module On-Demand Self Test The EATC Module On-Demand Self Test will retrieve on-demand (hard fault) DTCs only, it will not retrieve continuous DTCs. Continuous DTCs can be cleared when exiting the EATC Module On-Demand Self Test. Make sure to retrieve continuous DTCs by carrying out the Electronic Automatic Temperature Control Module — Retrieve Continuous DTCs procedure before clearing any continuous DTCs. The EATC Module On-Demand Self Test will not detect concerns associated with data link messages like engine coolant temperature or vehicle speed signals. A scan tool must be used to retrieve these concerns. The EATC Module On-Demand Self Test will detect concerns in the system control functions and will display on-demand (hard fault) DTCs for concerns that are present during the self-test. The vehicle interior temperature should be between 4°C-38°C (40°F-100°F) when carrying out the self-test. If the temperatures are not within the specified ranges, false DTCs may be displayed. The self-test can be initiated after cycling the ignition switch from OFF to ON. Normal operation of the climate control system stops when the self-test is activated. To enter the self-test, press the OFF and DEFROST buttons simultaneously and release, then press the AUTO button within 2 seconds. The display will show a flashing "----" for a maximum of 20 seconds, after which "8888" will be displayed if there are no on-demand DTCs present. If DTCs are present, the EATC module will display the on-demand DTCs. Record all DTCs displayed. If any DTCs appear during the self-test, carry out the diagnostic procedure. Refer to the Electronic Automatic Temperature Control (EATC) Module DTC Chart and follow the ACTION for each DTC given. If a condition exists, but no DTCs appear during the self-test, GO to Symptom Chart condition: The EATC System is Inoperative, Intermittent or Incorrect Operation. Always exit the self-test before powering the system down (system turned OFF). Continuous DTCs will be deleted after 80 ignition switch ON cycles after the intermittent fault occurs. EATC Module — Retrieve Continuous DTCs The EATC module will retrieve only continuous (intermittent) DTCs when carrying out this procedure. Retrieval of continuous DTCs can be initiated after cycling the ignition switch from OFF to ON. Normal operation of the climate control system stops when retrieving continuous DTCs. To retrieve continuous DTCs, press the OFF and DEFROST buttons simultaneously and release, then press the RECIRC button within 2 seconds. The display will show a flashing "----" for a maximum of 20 seconds, after which "8888" will be displayed if there are no continuous DTCs present. If DTCs are present, the EATC module will display the continuous DTCs present. Record all DTCs displayed. If any DTCs appear, carry out the diagnostic procedure. Refer to the Electronic Automatic Temperature Control (EATC) Module DTC Chart and follow the ACTION for each DTC given. If a condition exists but no DTCs appear, GO to Symptom Chart condition: The EATC System is Inoperative, Intermittent or Incorrect Operation. To exit and retain all continuous DTCs, press any button except DEFROST. The EATC module will exit the retrieved continuous DTCs mode and retain all continuous DTCs. To exit and clear all continuous DTCs, press the DEFROST button. The EATC module will exit the retrieve continuous DTCs mode and all continuous DTCs will be cleared. Always exit the procedure before powering the system down (system turned OFF). Continuous DTCs will be deleted after 80 ignition switch ON cycles after the intermittent fault occurs.

Good luck

More details please

Power steering belt is affecting ... the A/C?

I still have the "stock" setup, so I don't know directly about the Edge. But the basics remain the same. Keep the wheel/tire combo height the same to retain speedometer/odometer accuracy (and OEM navigation, if you have it). Lighter wheels will mean less rolling resistance, and better mileage/acceleration, but also possibly less "shock" absorption, unless the wheel is smaller and you put on a tire with more sidewall. Don't go smaller than the smallest OEM wheel size, so you retain brake clearance. Have you narrowed down your choices for new wheels? Are these going to be full-time, year round, or are you considering a winter set/non-winter set?

Nerve wracking to me, can't imagine for you!

Welcome, & good luck!

Here's what the manual says about the procedure, hope someone with actual experience will chime in: Parking Brake Cable Adjustment NOTE: Cable tension is adjusted in 2 locations, the first location is at the parking brake control, the second location is at the parking brake cable equalizer. The tension must be adjusted equally at both locations. With the vehicle in NEUTRAL, position it on a hoist. For additional information, refer to Section 100-02 . NOTE: The dimension will vary depending on the amount of cable stretch. New cables require cycling the parking brake control 5-10 times to remove the cable slack. Adjust the parking brake control adjustment nut as shown. Adjust the parking brake cable equalizer adjustment nut as shown. Fully apply the parking brake pedal 3 times to verify correct operation of the parking brake system. With the parking brake cable in the fully released position, brake drag should not be present.
