Ah, AWD! Makes one think immediately of the PTU as a culprit ... Do you have any warranty coverage on the MKX? If not, I would immediately look into changing out the PTU fluid, because it might have metal shavings in there, but looks like very early stages, so might get lucky there. Check the transmission fluid level & condition also, it should be a healthy pinkish color and free of dirt/grit. The driveshaft may be binding at certain times, do you feel any vibration when the "grinding" occurs? Noise at the wheel can be from brakes or hubs. Does the noise sound more present when turning the wheel left or right? It could be perfectly normal due to sensed wheel slippage. But since you notice it at the same wheel, if there IS something wrong, a wheel speed sensor is failing or the ABS tone ring has cracked. For the hard left turn issue: could be a PCM calibration update is needed, or a valve body or orifice cup servicing is required.

Ugh, that sucks, Jim. Do you know if they adjusted the shift lever at the same time they replaced the shifter? I am sure that since you are very mildly out of warranty, you can have success working with the dealer, or if necessary, FordService to get this resolved for you.

You've got a really good shop going there, Joe, sales AND service!

good luck

Awesome! Back to the limo-quiet ride

Someone had posted that there are a few small holes around the gas filler neck. Blowing compressed air into these holes should blow out the vent tube. If it doesn't seem to be a lasting solution, you could get underneath the vehicle, disconnect the coupler and blow it out from there. Info below is for a 2007 Edge, hopefully the 2011 is similar: Item Part Number Description 1 — Evaporative emission (EVAP) outlet tube-to-purge valve quick connect coupling (part of 9S284) 2 9D661A EVAP emission purge valve output tube 3 — Fresh air tube-to-vent tube quick connect coupling (part of 9S284) 4 9F931 Bundle retainer clip 5 9S284 Fuel supply tube 6 9F931 Bundle retainer clip 7 W707137 Bundle retainer clip nut 8 9S284 Fresh air tube 9 9F931 Bundle retainer clip 10 9F931 Bundle retainer clip 11 9F931 Bundle retainer clip 12 W707137 Bundle retainer clip nut 13 — Fuel vapor tube assembly-to-EVAP canister quick connect coupling (part of 9S284) 14 — EVAP purge valve outlet-to-EVAP canister quick connect coupling (part of 9S284) 15 — Fuel tank supply tube-to-fuel supply tube quick connect coupling (part of 9324) 16 9324 Fuel tank supply tube 17 9F931 Bundle retainer clip 18 9S284 Fuel vapor tube assembly 19 — Fuel tank supply tube-to-fuel pump module quick connect coupling (part of 9324) 20 9F931 Bundle retainer clip 21 — Fuel vapor tube assembly-to-fuel tank quick connect coupling (part of 9S284) 22 9F931 Bundle retainer clip 23 9G611 Fuel tank pressure transducer (FTPT) (part of 9S284) Disconnect the fresh air tube-to-vent hose quick connect coupling.

There's a real risk that the PTU is done for You could try having it changed once more, hopefully with better results. No idea on how many bearings there are, though I faintly recall the_natrix investigating and listing some part numbers ...

Yeah, it's full. So limited!!! K, i'll go empty it now

Congrats, and welcome to Edge ownership! As they say, Happy Trails!

Do you typically run FI cleaner through the fuel system, Prinzll? Sounds like a spark plug change as well as PCV valve change (plus air filter for all your AZ folks ) is in order!

Hope the Continentals do the trick! It is rather annoying not to be able to narrow down the cause of prominent NVH.

If it's the tires, on rotation, the noise should > in the front and < in the rear. If it's wheel bearings (and the rear WBs do go out more often), then the rotation will have little to no effect on the noise. Have the wheel bearings checked for free rotation while on the lift and emergency brake off.

Look over the reviews at Tirerack. Seems the tires do well initially but once the miles pile on (20K or more usually), the ratings really drop. Could be they were never rotated or checked for pressure etc. but in the absence of that knowledge: http://www.tirerack.com/survey/SurveyComments.jsp?&category=tire&additionalComments=y&commentStatus=P&tireMake=Sumitomo&tireModel=HTR+Sport+H%2FP&fromTireDetail=true&tirePageLocQty= Maybe you should try to find a local reputable tire shop that will allow you to test drive new tires to see if that is what you need (a 30 day guarantee or something). I have had that option available to me before. With that many miles on the tires, if there ARE problems, the tires cannot be "corrected". And you are sure that it IS road noise? Does it go up when you turn the wheel to the left vs the right (thinking wheel bearings)? Fordparts.com is the reference site for all things Ford, but when in doubt, you can always ask Benny at LevittownFordSuperCenter.com. He has a thread on here where you can post any parts questions you have, and is VERY helpful. http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/10937-employee-pricing-on-all-parts-accessories/page-10

How much mileage on it when you picked it up? Sitting on the lot for a long time will do bad things to the brakes unless everything is serviced before being put into daily use.

Is the Edge used on a daily basis? The brakes need to be exercised regularly to keep the pistons and slide pins from binding. 14K is not much over 3 years! At least the slide pins should be greased regularly, once a year or more, since you live in the salt/rust belt.

Congrats, Mrinal and welcome to the forum! Miles of smiles, may they accompany you.

Black would offset the silver rotors nicely.

Does the Edge track straight while driving at speeds 60 or above, i.e., if you let go of the wheel briefly, would it continue in a straight line with the steering wheel pointed straight ahead?

Welcome to the community, Burke, congrats on the '15 Edge! AWD? Color? Pics? Planning to leave it stock?

Yup! This is a link to his profile: http://www.fordedgeforum.com/user/11522-richy/

You can PM richy (he's a topnotch detailer, also in Canada), and he will know what to do 4 sure!

Probably a failed/shorting control module (located underneath the seat, IIRC).

It's the customer service you deserve for your patience during these "hostage" negotiations.

Welcome to the forum! Struts up front, shocks in the rear. Normally only need to replace the components (in pairs) on the axle with the issues. Not all 4 at the same time. Which Pirellis are you running? The Scorpion Zero's did have some issues early on. Did you notice the noise moving around when the tires were rotated? Sometime the 22" wheels crack or suffer from bead seal failure also.

A bilge pump WOULD come in handy as the waters rise due to global warming ...
