When reviewing Ford's website awhile back, I realized they updated the Edge and are now calling the Sport model, the Edge ST. What's the difference between a Sport and a ST? I know ST stands for Sport Technology. I thought maybe the Sport packages on Ford's were just a bigger engine and visually sportier inside and out and the ST were the same but had sportier tuned suspension and better brakes but the Explorer Sport has a different tuned suspension. I'm talking about across the board of Ford vehicles, not just the Edge.

Just seeing an ST logo in this forum gets me a little giddy. I know it's just for talk and speculation, but how cool would be it to see Ford offer a Fusion ST? Would you pull the trigger for a Ford ST and if so, what would you expect for performance and what would you expect to pay?

Loud Clunk/Popping Noise After Coilover Install
tim08 posted a topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
Hello, A few months ago, I had ST coilovers (part #90321) installed on my 2012 Fusion at a local shop. The install went well at first and the car handled great. However, after a few weeks the car developed a loud clunk/popping noise in the rear left. I took it back to the original shop and they thought it was likely a bad endlink. So I ended up replacing the endlink to no avail, the noise was still there after. Next, I took the car to another local shop and they had an idea that it was the spring isolator. I emailed ST and they said there should be no isolator installed, just the spring perch included in the original kit. So I sent them a picture of both sides and they said both sides looked ok. They thought that one side was probably a little higher than the other and sure enough they were right - the left side was about half an inch off so I raised it. Still no luck, the car is a little less harsh now but the annoying clunk is still there. I'm wondering if it's possibly a bushing - such as one in the Upper Control Arm making this noise and the shops are missing it. It's been driving me crazy and I'm not sure what the next option is short of reverting to stock. Thanks for reading! Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated. -
In case you missed the introduction of the KIA K900, it's 5.0L DOHC, all aluminum, direct injection 420 horsepower engine mated an an eight speed transmission. It sits on a 119.9" wheelbase, offering wheel rear drive performance. Not to mention that it looks pretty nice too. I'd love to see a Fusion ST do battle against something like this: Give me an AWD Fusion EcoBoost, please!
