  1. i always get coolant changed at my local shop, never at the dealer, so i never face these issues lol. they put in what i bring to them.
  2. Excuses, Excuses! So you are asking us to hurry up and wait! OMG that is just not cool! ? ? ?
  3. welcome, and good luck! hopefully nothing major. keep engine oil and transmission fluid changed at frequent intervals. both engine and transmission gulp them down like there is no tomorrow. change all other fluids asap. we are seeing more abs unit failures than ever. flushing the system and bleeding the abs is important.
  4. Ford Canada does not have a good reputation May be better off contacting Lincoln Canada instead if Ford is not agreeable.
  5. too bad you can't pin it inside this post so it appears on top whenever/wherever a member enters the thread.
  6. the OEMassive branded ones seem to work well based on owner feedback http://oemassive.com/headlights/
  7. should be ok, but i think you will get better results with the Valvoline MV FS ATF fluid. Priced the same as SuperTech apparently.
  8. when did you last change the PS fluid? suggest flushing with Valvoline MV FS ATF (red bottle/jug).
  9. fully charged SLA batteries will hover around 12.6V, AGM around 12.8V.
  10. you would have to mod an oulet to always on OR add one that is always on. would be handy with a solar trickle charger.
  11. Welcome! This manual may help with some of the information you require https://www.fordservicecontent.com/Ford_Content/vdirsnet/OwnerManual/Home/Index?Variantid=6316&languageCode=EN&countryCode=USA&marketCode=US&bookcode=O41702&VIN=&userMarket=GBR&div=f Diesel Edges have completely different powertrains from gasoline based Edges. https://www.carfolio.com/ford-edge-2.0-ecoblue-st-line-618937 ^^^ not sure how accurate this link is Brochure https://www.ford.co.uk/content/dam/guxeu/uk/documents/brochures/cars/BRO-Edge.pdf UK Edge Brochure.pdf
  12. yes you can use it in the Edge. but you must flush the existing coolant in the process. regardless of how close the formulations are, we don't want to roll the dice by mixing them.
  13. Dex-cool (the current version) is theoretically compatible with Motorcraft/Ford Orange. Do you have the back label of this jug as well? To see the specifications this coolant is compatible with. Much preferred if you can get Peak, Prestone, Zerex branded universal extended life coolants instead. What do you have available in your country? Full flush recommended regardless of what coolant you go with.
  14. when did you first hear this sound? before or after (any specific) maintenance?
  15. if you wait the 8+ hours, then technically, no, you do not need to have ignition in ON mode. yes, ON would the be the last step before starting the vehicle. I believe if you do not push the brake pedal, the ignition will only go to ON mode, not START/RUN. I believe the point you use is a grounding point. if it is bare metal to bare metal and your charger works, you are good. yes your charger has sufficient capability to charge this battery. is it a CTek charger?
  16. @Xtra i hope all is well with your health, and of course, your loved ones'!
  17. An internet search will easily turn up numerous references: http://www.motorcycleoctaneboost.com/coolant.html
  18. not normal for oil to be sucked into the intake. do you have a 2011-2013 MY vehicle? check into replacing the front valve cover.
  19. i thought i had seen a ptu fluid temp indicator, at least using torque pro, not sure about forscan. it was on the SHO platform a few years back. should be available for the Edge/MKX as well i would think.

  20. Battery Charging or Jump Starting To charge or jump start the vehicle, connect the positive cable to the battery positive post. It is preferred to connect the negative cable to a vehicle ground and not the battery negative post. Connecting directly to the negative battery post can have an adverse effect on the Electrical Energy Management system. For a good connection point, follow the cable from the battery negative post to the vehicle body connection (typically on the shock tower sheet metal) and connect there. If the battery is jump started or charged, the BCM must recalibrate the battery state of charge. Engine off load shedding may occur if the vehicle is operated before the BCM calibrates the new battery state of charge. NOTICE: DO NOT reset the battery monitoring system using the diagnostic scan tool. This reset is reserved for new battery installation. Resetting the battery monitoring system will clear the learned battery data, the battery time in service, and will affect the aging algorithm parameters, which have been learned since the installation of the battery. some of the caveats noted Battery State of Charge The BCM uses the battery current sensor to keep track of the battery state of charge. During a drive cycle the Electrical Energy Management software adjusts the battery state of charge up during charging, and down during discharge. During rest periods with the key off, and the vehicle enters sleep mode, the BCM automatically recalibrates the Battery State of Charge. It takes 8 hours in sleep mode, with the vehicle undisturbed, no doors opened or keyless entry buttons pressed, and the total vehicle current draw less than 300mA, to calibrate the battery state of charge to a high accuracy. If the system draw has not allowed the battery state of charge to calibrate over the previous 7 days, the state of charge quality factor changes to identify this and some Electrical Energy Management system functions may be temporarily turned off until a calibration takes place.
  21. Yeah, good point. I have never measured the amp draw in this condition, tho it may be reduced if you can lock the doors with the ignition on.
  22. well, thank goodness for duct tape. oil feed lines are known to develop spring leaks across multiple model lines. anyhoo, hope the ST is properly fixed up now.
