    • I have a 2014 Edge Sport AWD 3.7 with 130k miles and just had the RDU's ATC replaced by a local stealership a couple months back after hearing sudden bad popping from the rear end when rolling. They said the ATC was bad and installed a new unit but never reported back on the condition of the RDU or the fluid condition even though I had replaced the fluid approx. 30k earlier. Now I hear mild whining from the rear end when driving after replacing the fluid again recently, and found some minor metal on the drain plug in the process. Now I think we need to look into replacing the whole RDU, and everywhere I look I can't seem to find a new replacement or a reasonable remanufactured one.   Does anyone have an idea where I can find a new unit to replace this one with, or a quality rebuilt one?.....I really don't want to go with any bone-yard replacement as I don't want to go through all the work to replace it with someone else's lack of maintenance.
    • I’m having exactly the same problem. I replaced the OEM oil pan with an aluminum one, and the issue cropped up on the highway at 170 km/h—or at around 145 km/h in "S" mode. In city and country driving, the car runs perfectly normally—just as zippy and agile as ever. It just doesn't like high speeds anymore. I’ve ordered an oil pressure sensor and a new oil filter. If that doesn't work, would I have to switch back to the plastic pan? Edge 170kmh.mp4
    • He is good for a laugh, but yes - I run synthetic filters (amsoil) and top quality engine oil in all of my engines.  Good quality fluids are cheap insurance in the long run.  He has another video on air filters that is also an interesting watch.  I mostly get some amusement out of his props.
    • He's not that smart. Great video though. It's nothing more than common sense. Run good quality products for maximum life. You can't go wrong with OEM for sure.  If anyone out there wants to be a dummy and go cheap, go ahead. Walmart oil? Cmon. There is a reason the good stuff cost more. Sure, some of it might be the name. But there is a reason. They are called influencers for a reason. They influence us in to doing stupid things.
    • I’ve definitely thought about a widebody 👀 It would look crazy on the Edge, especially with the lower aero already on it. The only thing holding me back is that this is still my daily, so I can’t really have it down for weeks doing custom bodywork. Maybe one day though  
    • What's up everyone. Figured I'd finally share my 2012 Ford Edge Limited build, WRAITH//EDGE. I wanted to do something different with the first-gen Edge and take it in more of an American VIP/stance direction rather than the typical SUV build. Current setup includes H&R lowering springs, chrome wheels, custom lower aero, smoked tails, rear spoiler, large exhaust tips, resonator delete and Flowmaster Super 40. A lot of the exterior work has been DIY/custom because there isn't much aftermarket support for this generation. Still refining some details, but this is where it sits now. Curious what other Edge owners think—and I'd especially like to see any other modified 2007–2014 Edges still around.
    • Welcome.   The only suggestion I have is to use an auto-switching type of adapter instead of the elm327 manual switch adaptor.   I recommend this: OBDLink MX+ OBD2 Bluetooth Scanner
    • Welcome.   What's the mileage on your Edge and what type of issues have you encountered?
    • You should get plenty of clues before it will leave you stranded.   As an extension of this thread, I noticed that when locking and unlocking my vehicle many times without starting it (I was helping someone move, from a distant parking spot, with a lot of people around) that eventually only the drivers door would lock/unlock with the proximity sensors. When you stop the engine running and remain in the car in delay exit mode, and the radio starts shutting down to save the battery. When FordPass says that it is disabling remote access (this can happen after a few months of it sitting, but if you drive it regularly and get it, then it is getting close).   As mentioned, a good test (meaning they also charge it first) that shows SoC, CCA, resistance, SoH, and voltage will help determine that.   I pushed an AGM battery down to 200 CCA (a 760 CCA rated battery) and used it for 6 months, because I had a jump box, I was the only driver (no wife or kids), it was around town. Once the wife took it back over, and we went on vacation, I replaced it. It started the vehicle fine, but auto start/stop was always disabled, couldn't listen to the radio with the engine off, and every 2 weeks remote access was disabled.
    • Well, you made it your own, can't fault you there.   Most people complain about the poor headlight output, can't imagine them with what looks like tint.   A widebody Edge kit I would love to see, and no wheel well gap.
