Congrats & welcome!

Sorry to hear about your continuing issues with the Edge! I'd take it back to the trans specialist to see if they can spot the leak causing the issue. Sadly, it is possible that the PTU is overheating and overflowing through the vent. I'd recommend at least a flush & fill of the PTU to see if this corrects the problem. There should be no shavings in the old fluid in the PTU. If the flakes are noticeably present, the PTU may be getting ready to go. Hopefully the trans specialist does not have a closed-door policy on PTU fluid servicing. You can try your luck with a BG driveline service, lookup a center that does that. http://www.bgfindashop.com/locator/results_list.php?zip=24011&zipsearch=Go&showsurrounding=1&radius=25

Also check the cabin air filter/screen for restriction. A dirty air filter can cause coil freezeover.

Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD) The hydraulic control unit (HCU) is used as an electronic proportioning valve for electronic brake distribution (EBD). The HCU controls the brake fluid pressure to the rear brakes to help prevent them from applying before the front brakes. If the ABS is disabled due to DTCs being present in the module, the EBD will continue to function unless there is a complete failure of the HCU. When EBD is disabled, the ABS warning indicator also illuminates. A demo: I don't know if it is setup for diagonal control (on the Edge), which in older vehicles, ensures you still have braking stability should the valve fail. Usually the wheels with less traction (less weight on them) will have the fluid directed to them first, then when the braking overcomes the suspension on those wheels, the loaded wheels will get in on the action.

MPG conscious, probably ...

Rather fun watching the whole thing! Around here, we'd have to speed up the video just to get to a "normal" pace :P

Good luck, hope you weren't stranded too long.

Whoa! Never seen or heard of anything like this before. Most likely a manufacturing defect in the pad, I think. Too even to have been caused by anything else. And that's some pretty HARD material to have caused rotor damage like that. I would think Advance Auto would replace at least the pads if not the rotors as well once you show them the pics. Motorcraft rotors are fine, I'd get aftermarket pads though, like Hawk or EBC or Porterfield etc.

Yeah, but tires are in constant contact with the road. The parts mentioned are not. Nor are they asked to constantly flex/deform. From what I see, driving skills have been on a slippery slope to oblivion. As more and more safety features and automatic controls are put in, there is less & less need for the so-called "driver" to engage with the vehicle, generating a cloak of "invincibility". So even though the information is there in owner's manuals and state driving guides and interwebz Oracular sites, said information is not as readily at hand when the need arises. The VEHICLE has to do the heavy lifting most of the time. Now, as Tachyon pointed out, if the vehicle is driven conservatively, then there is a good chance the patch will take and "do no harm". Since these tires don't look directional, maybe this one can be flipped to the inside so it has less chance of curb encounters and such?

Welcome to the forum, congrats on your '08 SEL! From the owner's manual: Daytime running lamps (DRL) (if equipped) Turns the headlamps on at reduced intensity output. To activate: • the ignition must be in the ON position and • the headlamp control must be in the OFF or Parking lamps position. This would imply that the ignition switch or headlamp control switch are the most likely culprits. The Edge's electrical system CAN be finicky, so if the light bulbs are not halogen, and instead HID or LED, the lower power draw can cause some issues with the BCM.

Is it the oil change reminder light on by any chance? That needs to be reset every time the oil is changed. What you are referring to would be this: Engine oil pressure (RTT): Illuminates when the oil pressure falls below the normal range, refer to Engine oil in the Maintenance and Specifications chapter.

Do it, Jared, do it!!!

Hope this PCM connector diagram helps: 3-5L 4V Edge-MKX 140 pin PCM Harness Connector.PDF

Tumbleweed city ... Sounds like the cooling system in your Edge has an obstruction (squeeze the hoses when ambient and note how they feel), or a lack of flow due to water pump failure or failed sensors, among other possibilities. This is what the FSM lists as possibilities: Low coolant level External engine coolant leak Airlock in system Pressure relief cap installation Restricted airflow through the A/C condenser/radiator Internal engine coolant leak Coolant condition/concentration Accessory drive components Non-OEM engine enhancement components Electric cooling fan (if equipped) Mechanical cooling fan (if equipped) Mechanical cooling fan clutch (if equipped) Radiator Thermostat Engine coolant temperature indicator system (gauge) Engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor (if equipped) Cylinder head temperature (CHT) sensor (if equipped) Heater core Coolant pump Coolant flow restriction

Welcome to the community, Smitty, congrats on your '12 SEL! AWD/FWD? Color? Pix to share?

congrats on the nab! At one point, this was Steeda's level of interest in the Edge: http://www.steeda.com/blog/2008/11/steeda-announces-new-ford-edge-program/

Ford should include foam kits with their products so their customers can fix the rattles DIY

Unfortunately, the 2007 Edge does not have a fuel pressure monitoring system, so you can't read it through the OBD port. The fuel rail Schraeder valve is all you have to go by. At best, you could hook up a gauge to the valve and see what the readings are at different engine RPMs, but that may not be a true test for the misfire/sputter. Ideally, the fuel pump should also be tested not only for fuel pressure, but fuel volume. That level of detail can be extracted by any competent service shop. Take some pics of the spark plugs (factory platinum) when you change them out please. Since the spark plugs are on the frontlines of the combustion process, they can help with the diagnostics.

Try EBay or FordPartsGiant lookup to get full part numbers. I believe the LevittownFordSuperCenter site also has full part numbers now.

On the tire shoulder. According to tirerack, not repairable. http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tiretech/techpage.jsp?techid=77 http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tiretech/techpage.jsp?techid=187

Principles of Operation The tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) monitors the air pressure of all 4 road tires. The wheel-mounted tire pressure sensors transmit via radio frequency (RF) signals, to the smart junction box (SJB). TPMS functionality is integral to the SJB. These transmissions are sent approximately every 60 seconds when the vehicle speed exceeds 32 km/h (20 mph). The TPMS function compares each tire pressure sensor transmission against a low-pressure limit. If it has been determined that the tire pressure has fallen below this limit, the SJB communicates this on the vehicle communication bus to the instrument cluster. The instrument cluster then illuminates the TPMS indicator and displays the appropriate message(s) in the message center (if equipped). The system is not affected by wheel and tire rotation. =========== A. Buy a TPMS training tool and see if it will train the sensors properly B. Have a tire center do A. for you C. Pull codes from the OBD port to see if any Bxxxx or Uxxxx codes are present D. Diagnose and/or replace SJB. This has to be done via IDS, at a Ford dealer, or service shop with access to IDS software/tools.

Most likely the head unit has to be replaced as the CD player is going byebye. If you don't, you may one day come back to find the battery drained & dead.

If you live in Italy, pizza is in your blood? IDK ...

Sadly, this is one well-documented case of "a moment of pleasure, a lifetime of pain", akirby! Maybe you can turn it to your advantage by becoming a food critic

Well, you disproved the most obvious reason: injector fault. So on to the wiring. http://www.obd-codes.com/p0203 Have you had the intake manifold off before? Could be pinched wiring. Ideally you would check the wiring for continuity/resistance between the PCM connector and the FI connector (all 6 of them for comparison).
