  1. Battery is def a good starting point (retrain the Battery Management System afterwards for proper charging; dealer can do it). Also have them look into shifter replacement if the symptoms with SHIFT TO PARK continue. Have all the grounds checked/cleaned. If the battery is leaking, check any wiring nearby.
  2. 34 mpg? with AWD? Wow, I want THAT!!! The reason I suggested looking at the engine first/resetting the PCM was because I too thought the trans was a culprit for similar symptoms on my Edge. But that was not the case. There are/were no codes set either.
  3. Trans flush is a good idea (or at least a 3x drain & fill). Next thing is to make sure you are running the appropriate weight motor oil (5W20 or 0W20, synblend or full synthetic). Motorcraft oil filter works fine (FL400s), no need for expensive aftermarket filters. Good fuel from a high turnover station helps too. Run Techron or BG 44K through the fuel tank. Next on my list would be spark plug & PCV valve change. Sensorwise, sure, the OSS/TSS sensors or the TR sensor could be acting up. Again, a fluid xchange might help the trans clear out any unwanted particles interfering with the sensor operation. Try unhooking the neg battery cable for 30 min, then reconnecting, and going through the PCM relearn process. There are TSBs for 5th gear starts from stop, for example, but nothing IIRC specifically for 3rd-4th shift & the like.
  4. That's a pretty bad one, Nick, they should have escalated the issue with Ford if they didn't have a local solution handy.
  5. Look up this thread: http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/8724-sparkplug-replacement-job-info-with-photos/ My post has a couple of pics of the rear bank area: http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/8724-sparkplug-replacement-job-info-with-photos/page-3?do=findComment&comment=130235
  6. You can check Redline Tuning to see if they have an application for your 2013 Edge. A few people on this forum have installed their products, and love 'em. http://www.redlinetuning.com/SearchResults.asp?Search=Ford+Edge+2013

  8. The 3.5 NA (naturally aspirated) motor (the Edge does not have the 3.5EB motor), correct. The 2.7EB is not involved.

    BCM

    The BCM will be programmed to the specific PCM it is connected to. Not sure exactly what all is involved though. It may drive off the PCM strategy code, or some other internal identifier. IDK.
  10. Just confirming that it was indeed #24 that was pulled.
  11. Hope the diag menu turns up a lead Don't be "fooled" by the MYs listed on the TSB, that is just a guide, and where Ford feels the issue has been "certifiably" proven & fixed.
  12. Did this only happen with 3.8? Any other electrical or mechanical snafus? A dying battery can raise all sorts of symptoms. You can try disconnecting the neg cable for 30 minutes, reconnecting, and letting the PCM relearn. May be enough to fix the GPS/navigation issue. Is the latest software installed? http://www.revbase.c...adPdf?id=180484 Also, there is a TSB 14-0037 for this particular issue. GLOBAL POSITIONING SATELLITE MODULE (GPSM) NAVIGATION DISPLAY OFFSET OR INCORRECT POSITION BUILT ON OR BEFORE 1/6/2014 Image of TSB here There are diagnostic menus you can access: http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/17205-navigation-is-not-even-close-to-correct/?do=findComment&comment=125429
  13. Good luck, msawdust. At this point, Ford should issue a voluntary recall on the 3.5's and update the PCM calibration.
  14. If it really is a gas smell, there could be multiple reasons, including those supposedly addressed by the dealer (a Ford dealer I presume?). Not done yet is exhaust system checks to see if there are any leaks. How has the MPG been? Should be decent, accounting for 10% drop with winter fuel. Definitely go to another dealer and verify that the work was actually done. Unrelated, but is your Edge AWD or FWD? AWD's tend to have PTU sickness, which can cause PTU fluid to spew and make evil smells. Also check to see if your cabin air filter (glove compartment) is clean & functional.
  15. Sounds like the camshaft position sensor (CPS/CMP) might be AWOL. Pull codes to check, there should be something set, and quite likely check engine lights as well. Codes will be P03xx. Any major auto chain store can pull the codes for free. BTW, did the SPEEDO stop working or the TACHOMETER?
  16. If the horn does not work with the fuse pulled, the horn is likely defective and needs replacement. But any of these can be the culprit: Fuse Circuitry Horn Clockspring Steering wheel switch harness Horn switches (part of the steering wheel) Smart junction box (SJB) Horn Item Part Number Description 1 W706805 Front fender splash shield screws (RH) (5 required) 2 — Horn electrical connector (part of 14290) 3 W605784 Horn bolt 4 13832 Horn Removal and Installation With the vehicle in NEUTRAL, position it on a hoist. For additional information, refer to Section 100-02 .Remove the 5 RH front fender splash shield screws. Pull the RH front fender splash shield downward to access the horn. Disconnect the electrical connector.Remove the bolt and the horn. To install, tighten to 10 Nm (89 lb-in). To install, reverse the removal procedure.

    BCM

    If it works like SJB replacement, an appropriate scan tool (VCM/IDS compatible) is needed to upload the BCM configuration from the old unit and download into the new BCM. EDIT: If you don't download the config, you will need to get the AS-BUILT DATA from Ford's data center and download into the new module. Programmable Module Installation (PMI) Using the Integrated Diagnostic System (IDS) When the Original Module is NOT Available NOTE: Following module installation, some modules require a separate learning procedure be carried out. For adaptive learning and calibration instructions, refer to the specific module removal and installation procedures. Install the new module.Connect the IDS and identify the vehicle as normal.From the Toolbox icon, select Module Programming and press the check mark.Select Programmable Module Installation.Select the module that was replaced.Follow the on-screen instructions, turn the ignition key to the OFF position, and press the check mark.Follow the on-screen instructions, turn the ignition key to the ON position, and press the check mark.If the data is not available, the IDS displays a screen stating to contact the As-Built Data Center. Retrieve the data from the technician service publication website at this time and press the check mark.Enter the module data and press the check mark.The IDS downloads the data into the new module and displays Module Configuration Complete.Test module for correct operation.

  20. The 6F55 trans can easily handle 500-550 lb.ft of torque (crank) in a daily driver. Plenty of vehicles around as proof. Now, the 6F50 trans used with the non-Ecoboost 3.5 is definitely not as strong, but what the limit is there is hard to say (insufficient data).
  21. Compare the vLEDs product (in this case, the 9005):
  22. Assuming similar test conditions, probably PCM programming to provide a "smoother" experience, making the MKX a tad slower as a byproduct.
