Surprising Interior noise fix
enigma-2 replied to johnmarkp's topic in Interior, A.C., Heat, Interior Trim
Did that once with a half bottle of Bacardi. Your right, weird noises. Lol. -
It was not meant to be a jab at you or anyone else. When you change performance (faster acceleration), you directly alter the mileage. More acceleration requires more gasoline. I was mearly asking was a simple question, how many miles per gallon loss to gain better acceleration? If it was possible to achieve a simple fix to gain better acceleration WITHOUT a hit in mileage, Ford would have incorporated it in production years ago. After all, they spend millions in research for just this purpose.

Don't know this stuff, you would want a lubricant that doesn't attract dirt and doesn't get gummy with water or cold. Anything "like" silicone would probably be ok, I would guess.

Question about DRL's
enigma-2 replied to ALLEN007's topic in Glass, Lenses, Lighting, Mirrors, Sunroof (BAMR), Wipers
Integrated Diagnostic Software. Had to look it up. https://www.motorcraftservice.com/Diagnostic/Diagnostic -

Former Marine Airwing, Avionics CH-46. Also flew as a door gunner in Nam. Whenever I travel I sometimes have to walk on the tarmac to reach the aircraft. The sounds and smells of avgas burning takes me right back to those days.

2015+ common area - a place to say anything (feel free to pin)
enigma-2 replied to 037's topic in 2015 Edge & MKX
Referencing the owners manual, page 126. Make certain your climate control is turned on (button H). Make certain the A/C button is off (button G). Set the temperature to lower than the outside temperature. (Down to 60° to keep the outside air continously flowing, otherwise the air will slow or stop when the cabin temp matches the outside temp). Or take it off automatic by manually setting the fan speed. -
I wish. My 09 has soft, squishy brakes. Ah .... NO! No, no, no. My 09 seals the cabin area tightly. That is NOT normal. Your car has a leak around the rear doors. I would start by checking the rubber weather seals. Try using a dollar bill, shut it in the car door and wiggle it around the door seal. It should not move easily. If it does, the seal has gaps and is letting in air and water.

Outside air inlet clogged?
enigma-2 replied to edgemaster's topic in Interior, A.C., Heat, Interior Trim
FWIW, I check my cabin filter to see if dirty (this was last year), and found piles and piles of shredded foam rubber laying on the filter. Have no idea as to where it came from (suspect the asst. service mgr. did it - guy didn't last and he always seemed to by hustling repairs not needed). Anyway, it IS possible that there is a blockage in this area -

Outside air inlet clogged?
enigma-2 replied to edgemaster's topic in Interior, A.C., Heat, Interior Trim
Ok. By chance, did you switch to recirculate to see if the air flow improved? If it doesn't I would suspect something in the core causing the blockage. (Or one of the doors not actuating properly.) Another way to isolate is to remove the cabin filter and leave the filter door open. If it improves, it's allowing air to bypass the engine intake and, yes, I would then suspect it. If not however, it's still being blocked lower in the system. -
You can color your existing bulbs by using several coats of Dupli-Color Metalcast Yellow. There's an excellent discussion on fog lamps at http://www.danielsternlighting.com/tech/lights/light_color/light_color.html

I would think that synthetic grease would last the longest. The service manual recommends silicone spray. I use a super silicone, a mix of silicone and Teflon (think that's what it is, haven't used it in a while).

You talk about your, like my friend talks about his; with TLC. (Smile). His doesn't have an automatic control however, he uses a thermometer and manually opens and closes the vents to regulate heat. Is that a feature on the newer grills?
