enigma-2

Based my response on the car "worked fine on the way home". Based on that, I assumed the service tech did the testing to ensure it was fixed. Did they check the throttle body position sensor? Believe that could cause this.

Mac, I believe that the op stated they had changed out the transmission sensors as part of the 4-week repair.

My error. On my Lincoln, I believe that they are separate lights. I've never noticed any shutter. Thanks for the explanation.

He didn't state that the oil pressure light had come on. My guess is the engine had a journal blocked by crud.

Oh now, now, now. I replaced my cabin air filter last month and, I swear, I'm getting 2 miles more per gallon.

09 and 10 model years are both relatively trouble free (taken in context). I have an 09 MKX and love it. Given the choices between the two you are giving, I would go with the 2010. It has small upgrades over the 09 and (more importantly), has navigation. No big deal if you don't use it, but a big deal if you decide you wish you had it better. I'm all for haggling over price, I got them to come down a grand (about what I wxpected), and a "slight" improvement on an extended warranty. Haggle, but see if you can get them to throw in an extended warranty.

Do you know if they adjusted the high beams down, or the low beams up?

Weathertech's in my MKX and that's all I give for Christmas.

Anything here that would help? http://www.dashkitspecialties.com/dash_kits_ford.html

And he his warranty hasn't run out,... yet.Of course it's a gamble. So is buying life insurance. I bought an extended warranty on an Escort years ago, developed problems idling. Ran as it had a race cam in it, loping and very poor performance. Took it in and after a week they called in the area rep. Tried everything and finally figured out that the cam shaft had not been hardened properly, was "shredding" steel and changed to shape of the lobes. Total cost was more than if I would have paid for a new engine, but only cost me $100 plus I had the use of a loaner. All it takes is one problem to use up your initial investment. And on a used vehicle, there's a lot that can fail in a AWD car. Electronics everywhere, sensors on everything, computers controlling every aspect of the car, complicated drivetrains;there's just to much that can go wrong. Personally I would rather have the piece of mind knowing I'm covered for the big stuff.

You bought your Edge new in 2012 and this was the first time you changed the air filter? Ah, that's the problem, you waited too long, your air cleaner housing probably shrunk.

No, they're not, but it's a common enough problem. I think it has more to do with "how" the car was driven, more so than how many miles it's seen. But, anything mechanical will fail eventually. For my 2 cents would urge to buy the Edge that has "all" the bells & whistles. The more goodies, the better. And most importantly, buy the best extended warranty you can afford. (No matter what car/brand/model you buy). A grand up front may just end up covering a serious problem later. So far I've used only about 70% of mine, just on "little" things, broken vacuum hose, stuff like that. Not the parts, it's the service labor.

I like Redbow's solution. (Looks great!) Wood always looks better, especially when it's good quality; a source of pleasure for years to come.

Check Ebay. Seen a new one on there for $250.

There's one currently on ebay for $240 and buy it now. Grab it if you are really serious, will not come up very often. http://m.ebay.com/itm/2015-2016-Ford-Edge-oem-Center-LED-Tail-light-bar-for-Lift-Gate-p-n-FT4B13B433AJ-/161933586343?nav=SEARCH

I've found that its not all that uncommon that the shop doesn't always completely fill the oil. When it takes 5-1/2 qts. I've seen them use only 5 qts. telling me that it's okay. First step, check your oil level.

Is it noisy from the getgo or does it quite a little after the warms up? Bearing noise or more like tappets, etc?

I should have worded it differently. I meant that on "pitch black roads" you would probably be running brights and the fogs are disabled when the brights are on. Didn't mean to imply that they look stupid, just will not contribute any additional, useful light by throwing additional money in making them brighter. They work perfectly as designed, to illuminate the edges of the road right up in front of the car. Adding brighter fog lights serve of good purpose and probably would just throw additional glare towards oncoming drivers.

A 5" locust? Holy sh☆☆! Can you imagine hitting a swarm at 60 mph an a motorcycle?

Is it "only" after you refuel or does it also happen after the car has been sitting overnight? Personally I doubt it has to do with a "vacuum" problem, probably more like the fuel line is not remaining pressurized. Who were you referring to as "they"?

First thing i would suspect is the battery itself. I would have the battery tested with a professional battery tester. Your dealer will probably do this for you free, in expectation of selling you a new battery. Btw, if you do need one, Ford has a coupon on their website for a 84 month battery. As for 33k and have problems, you should expect problems with anything mechanical or electrical, no matter what the age. Things fail. Batteries fail at different times depending on the loads and enviroment they have been exposed to. I've had a Diehard fail in less than one year. Had a Motorcraft go six years. (Shrug).

It's Ford's warranty. I misread the coupon, it's 7 years, 84 months. http://owner.ford.com/maintenance/service-coupons-and-offers.html?couponId=BT010

Pitch black roads, don't you use your brights? Fogs are disabled with brights.

Gotta tell you, I occasionally see people running around with their fogs on on clear nights, and I've never thought to myself that it "looked good".
