  1. You are going to need a resistor to match the ohms of a regular incandescent bulb to alleviate that.
  2. You also have to consider the extreme heat where I am is also a factor. The day it croaked, it was 115 degrees out.
  3. I did avoid a 4 cylinder altogether. Mine has a 3.5L V6. It's also Burgundy Velvet. This makes the 2nd car in the burgundy family I have owned. The first was a Caprice.
  4. I am exploring the Gianelle Verdis for the new Edge Considering I already have black SEL wheels, I am going to put the Gloss Black version on this Edge. On my white one, I wanted the black chrome version.
  5. It fits my everyday needs. Not too big. Not too small. Just right. Now, if we can convince Ford not to kill it off.............
  6. This just sunk in: I literally have owned three different trim levels of Edge and two generations (2008 SE, 2011 Limited, 2018 SEL).
  7. Update: It's a wrap with my 2011. Turns out there are more issues than previously listed. I am in the process of getting a 2018 SEL that is fully loaded (Price could not be beat).....Stay tuned.
  8. Update: I found a compressor from an MKX for $72 (31k miles on it). I am also shopping for the belts to replace them while I am at it.
  9. What would be "fun" is if Ford offered a similar package to COPO back in the day (Which was how the original ZL1 was developed and how the Yenkos were done). Then, developed "Stages 1-5" like the Skylark GSX.
  10. .....the A/C compressor goes out AGAIN. This time there is a burning smell which means the clutch has gone south. I am open to suggestions to a decently priced new compressor or a junkyard that may have a 2011-2014 Edge with the 3.5L V6.
  11. I heard they cancelled the Edge overseas.
  12. My camera works but is now showing an upside down image and the quality seems a little off. My guess is that it's probably due for updates.
  13. Got word from Roush that they will not be coming out with anything for the Edge ST. Steeda? Saleen? If Alfa Romeo can extract 505 hp from a TT 2.9L V6 and AWD, why can't we get more goodies for this car because the potential is there. Side note: I asked about more hp for the Nitemare F150 and got the same thing from Roush. Sometimes 650 hp isn't enough.
  14. Now, even more wierd, is that the bluetooth wasn't working properly for a minute. I could not hear my calls.
  15. This may sound a bit extreme. However, I'd also recommend claying the windshield, windows, and the BAMR glass. If you think your paint's contaminated, guaranteed your glass is worse.
  16. My concern with the summer tires would be how well they handle rain and cold road surfaces. Plus, parts of AZ do get snow which is no Bueno for summer tires.
  17. a) I am a HUGE 303 fan. Been using that protectant since 2001. b) I still researching my options (Replacing the assemblies is not out of the question as well due to one of them being nailed with a stone) c) I am still considering the VLEDs Micro Extreme Headlight Kit (Higher output is necessary for me due to some of the areas in AZ that are literally pitch black) d) The Off-Road Bar for the front license plate is still on the list.
  18. This what I also find illogical..... a) One of Ford's best selling vehicles doesn't have any performance options through Ford Performance? I am sure you will find pages upon pages of Mustang, Focus ST/RS, Fiesta ST goodies. Even goodies for the F-150 exist. Why not the Edge? b) I truly wonder if Roush will step to the plate with performance enhancements. We can keep the factory warranty with Roush, at least. c) I have owned two other vehicles with more sparse performance support . Much like the Edge, Maximas have had to rely on different forum members for additional performance goodies. d) Why can't they send the CD4 Edge out with a bang using the Continental's 3.0 L TT V6 and tweak that to 450 hp? Then tweak the new 9 speed to handle the added torque.
