What have you done to/with your Edge/MKX today?
PrinzII replied to WWWPerfA_ZN0W's topic in Accessories & Modifications
Looked at brake kits for the Edge and may be going with this: http://www.autoanything.com/brakes/power-stop-oek-ceramic-brake-kits I want to replace all 4 rotors and all pads in the process. This looks like the best bang for the buck. -
In my case, the following gas brands are used: Costco 91 Octane Shell 89 Octane I have never used anything lower than 89 in the Edges I have owned.

As for the Edge, I am looking at the deal on AutoAnything for their brake kit. -

Since the GT500 isn't out yet, ZL1 it is. -
Mine is now throwing that "Low Oil Pressure" warning. However, the circumstances for mine are different. a) The engine still runs It seems to only happen when I am at the end of an exit ramp or on a slight incline I had the dealer check the oil levels and they were fine. They are speculating that the oil pressure sending unit may be going out. ....and, I top off on fuel and run the factory spec 5w20 semi-synthetic oil as well.

Where I am does not have 93 octane. The highest is 91. Considering I run Costco, the sole choices are 87 and 91. I typically run 89 in the Edge but since Costco doesn't have mid-grade, I just run premium since the octane is not much different.

Are you happy with Edge? Would you buy Edge again?
PrinzII replied to t0lkman's topic in Owner Impressions
As for me, I have owned 2 Edges thus far (2008 and my current 2011). Reliability: I can safely say that both of my Edges have been quite reliable. I have had one major repair with the 2011 (a/c compressor grenaded itself on a 115 degree day). However, the 2011 did have its share of niggling issues (e.g. master cylinder, door latch). Comfort: I am not a small dude by any stretch but found both Edges comfortable. The upgrade from my 2008 SE to my 2011 Limited was even moreso. I can haul our bikes in the Edge with the rear seats folded. Will I get another? Well, the Edge ST is intriguing me. However, I like the Edge Sport and MKX. However, the new Lincoln Nautilus, Expedition Platinum, and Navigator all are intriguing to me. Then again, so is the JGC Trackhawk......lol However, a 2011-2014 Sport would be a fun vehicle for me to customize as I see fit. -
How about Jules from Pulp Fiction? (Samuel L. Jackson) Turn left, @#$%!@#$!!

Your story is like mine with Camaro ZL1s. I have driven a 5th Gen and am drooling over the 6th Gen. -
....or a hopped up Nautilus

Thanks for the tip. I will be doing just that. -
In reading this, my take would be the following: Take the 400 hp TT V6 from the Continental (Make it 450+ hp) and couple it with a beefier AWD system Install the 9 speed trans Bang and Olufsen is a good choice. Revel is better. B&W is even better. LED Headlights Full leather interior No rotary dial shifter Offer a Manual transmission option Upgrade the steering for more feel and sharper handling without compromising ride quality See, I am not asking for much.....lol

In IL, Nick's situation would definitely qualify for the Lemon Law. He would have gotten a new one by now. Nick: That is definitely a cluster of the highest order. I hope you find a good resolution. -
Wanted: Halogen Headlight Assemblies for 2011 Edge

Not 100% gone but drastically lessened. As for what's been done recently..... Replaced windshield courtesy of a rock that hit it on the freeway Got oil changed In the cards: Power Steering flush Brake Fluid Flush Shopping for pads and rotors Shopping my lighting options -
They have actually smoothed out and have better bite in the corners.

LED Light Bar Installation
PrinzII replied to Mister-Edge's topic in Glass, Lenses, Lighting, Mirrors, Sunroof (BAMR), Wipers
Not installed yet, Got headlight issues to contend with before installing the bar. But to answer the OP's question, The linked thread was for a member who would travel heavily through the Rockies and needed the light output. He put a single row bar in the top slot of the grille which actually worked for light output because there isn't an opening for airflow. As for me, I deal with highway travel through the mountains of AZ and need the light because of deer/elk. My setup was actually going to be mounted on a license plate bracket which would not interfere with airflow.- 24 replies

Install a Power Liftgate for a 2016 Ford Edge SEL
PrinzII replied to Jay1203's topic in Accessories & Modifications
Not to mention the possible wiring changes....... -
Today, the vibrations were drastically lessened. I would not be surprised if those bushings were worn out. Too bad they don't have polyurethane bushings for the Edge.

You'd be surprised at how many threads leave us hanging on here......lbvs

Looks like I may have to take a trip to Discount today. The (not-so-good) vibrations have returned.

If it is anything like the Explorer, they are going to get rid of the console or modify it because of the radios, shotgun, and lighting switches. The other thing is that they will still have to make sure it has a hi-po alternator because of other things like the video system.
