Spoke with Dan this weekend and will be placing my order for the new puddle lamps Thursday Changing Fuse #17......again because left HID is out (Next week, ordering Morimoto 2 Stroke LED headlights (Along with Morimoto switchbacks) and moving HIDs to wifey's 300) Resume hunting for new headlight assemblies Oil Change Still getting vibration from Kumhos after Road Force Balancing. May have subframe looked at while oil is being changed

Sounds like your dealer took the path of least resistance and fixed a totally unrelated problem. Updating Sync (infotainment system) has ZERO to do with what you are experiencing with your climate control system. Did they check the refrigerant levels? That can also be a sign of a leak in the system. Did they check the condenser? Did they check all of the lines? Worst case: Replace compressor or condenser

The choices for tire I had were this and the Falken. Neither of them had the low rolling resistance. However, when I was peeping these rims in 20", I could get the Yokohama Geolandar G055 which has the low rolling resistance in the same size that would fit a Trailblazer SS..

Are the bulbs still D3S like the 2011-2014 HID equipped Edges?

Now that the vibration has been dispatched, I can give you some feedback on these tires. The Kumho Crugen KL33 is a tire designed strictly for crossovers like ours. Typically, Edge owners wind up with an H-rated tire but this was the only tire sold at Discount in the 245/60/18 size with a V speed rating and had a pretty decent price of $129/tire. The outer tread block is something that takes getting used to. It almost reminds you of an all-terrain tire but the inner tread design is more suited for crossover duty So far, these tires are pretty smooth. They are as quiet as the Yokohamas and the Michelins. However, if you are looking for the low rolling resistance/fuel saving......fogeddaboutit. .

My 2011 had the door latch issue that was prevalent in Gen 1.5. Dealer replaced under warranty both times.

Color? Is it White Platinum? if so, expect increased costs as that is a 3 stage paint job (basecoat, pearl, clear coat) What year? Part of the cost will be how many gallons of paint will be required. I would roughly say 3-4. Will this be a show quality paint job or an Earl Scheib/Maaco Special?

That will come after the Road Force Balance.

One thing I noticed with these tires is that outer tread block is fairly aggressive but is actually quiet. Every time I look at them, I think I have an all-terrain tire. Save for the vibration, the ride is fairly smooth. I haven't put them through their paces yet.

This time, it's not as bad as the Pirellis was. I am still going to get that Road Force balance, though.

Thus far, I am getting a vibration and will need to have them Road Force Balanced. I hope this is not Pirelli Part II.

I will have some feedback tomorrow.

Been changing it at the dealer since my 2008 Edge and don't plan on changing the trend. Wife's 300 is the same and goes to the Ford dealer since we got it there. New Edge Sport or MKX? Still dealership but synthetic from day one.

For me, it would be these: https://www.wheelpros.com/american-racing-vintage-boss-tt Foose Nitrous and The AR Torq Thrust are up there.

Those even work on the G2 Edges quite well.

These on an Edge.....yes! http://giovannawheels.com/wheels/all/gianelle/gianelle-verdi/ Not these (as much as I LOVE these on hot rods).... https://centerlinewheels.com/wheel/005-auto-drag-2-0/?cat=145

Switchbacks are on the list of lighting upgrades. I found the ones by Morimoto that may just fill the bill.

There was a post some time ago with a member who mounted a light bar to the grille and it really illuminated the roadway.

Thursday is the appointment to mount these.

Could be the switch or blend door.

I spoke with my agent and the only way they are getting covered is if they are cracked or broken.

No, we have enough in AZ. The fewer, the better.

Enigma: That is part of the process. The real fun is going to be deciding the right polish to use in order to take care of the swirls on it.

Seeing that I prefer more oomph, I was leaning more toward the GT's 500 hp and maybe the Focus RS's AWD system as well as a limited slip differential. That would effectively frustrate a stock GC SRT8.
