    Ford delayed the EVs targeted for the Oakville plant until 2027 but said they are unable to continue Ford edge production due to supplier constraints and emission requirements. So this is the last month. Get ‘em while they’re hot!

    Not true at all. It saves about 5% on average and I’ve noticed the difference when mine stops working. They’ve upgraded the battery and the starter to handle the added wear. You may not like it but it’s definitely not a scam.

    When you charge it you have to put the negative cable on the body not on the battery. That way the charging goes through the battery sensor.

    Are you sure it’s engine oil?

    Works fine for me.

    It was hidden so I unhid it. Try again.

    The alternator output is variable and controlled by the PCM so it may not be constant.

    You need to kick straight in and up like you’re touching the shoelaces to the bottom of the bumper 1 foot to either side of center. Don’t wave it back and forth. Mine works 99% of the time.

    Did you reset the battery monitor when you replaced the battery? If it’s really dead then you either have a parasitic draw or you’re not driving it enough to keep it charged.

    I would not assume the clock spring is functioning normally.

    This TSB is only applicable to 2015-2017. It’s not an extended warranty - it’s subject to the normal warranty coverage if you have a leak. There could be a different TSB for the 2019s or they may already have the updated pan.

    Edge replacement

    akirby posted a topic in Lounge

    Someone mentioned this might be a good replacement for both Fusion and Edge buyers. How would you guys feel about it?

    I have the same problem when taking corners briskly, driving more than 5 miles over the limit or speeding up to make it through a yellow light. I thought about getting rid of it but that would cost me half of everything I own. ??

    Sync 4 fixed that on our Nautilus - it’s on the small inset screen.

    Yes it’s normal and yes it can be added if you can find one. At least that used to be the case. They started deleting them a few years ago.

    This is the same bad valve issue (incorrect heat treatment by the supplier) that affected the Broncos. They’re just expanding the scope to other vehicles. The ones that fail do it early so most have already been replaced under warranty.

    Just FYI - it’s not a battery light and it doesn’t mean the battery is bad. It’s a check charging system light and it means the alternator isn’t charging the battery properly. It doesn’t mean anything unless the engine is running so fix that first.

    Exhaust

    akirby replied to potage's topic in 2.7L EcoBoost

    I don’t see why not

    It’s possible the factory mini spare is 17” not 18”. Only one way to find out.
  23. akirby
    According to tirerack.com 18” wheels fit Edge ST AWD with either the standard or upgraded brakes.

    Buy your own digital tester like the Solar BA7 or have it tested at autozone, etc. Make sure they test CCAs.

    A tune is by far the best option. https://www.fordedgeforum.com/forum/86-tuning/
