Larger wheels should be easy to account for with any tuner.

Welcome to the community, glad to have ya here!

Agreed with above, stand there and watch em do it. No accusations, just get it done And thanks for posting the receipt!

Won't know till I look at the invoice. I like to look at the details before commenting, it cuts down on the guesswork

ok. i installed a Hitachi part also, no problems thus far in a bout a year. MAF wiring/connector would be next on the checklist. As would be the dogbone/trans insulator/mount underneath the vehicle, fairly easy to check.

great quote to remember.

Doesn't take long at all on a lift. I think you have to fill till overflowing on post 2007 PTUs, but I would have to consult the manual to be sure. There was a tsb for replacement PTUs on the 2007 where the fill plug location was changed so the overflow was the right level. But on the original PTU, 1/4 inch below was the correct level. If the corrosion is still there, they prob did not change it. Can you post up a redacted coy of the invoice?

51 minutes to replace spark plugs on a 3.5/3.7 engine. The myth is bigger than the reality Look up the MACTFORDEDGE channel on YT, should be very helpful to you. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJb7karK2nhyA7G1BW6xESg On a 2007-8 especially, replacing plugs, maybe even coils is essential when such errors start to arise. Or be prepared to lose the PCM. and have codes read from the PCM. any major auto parts store - free. Welcome to the forum, btw.

8. Did you have the intake tube installed at the time you did not have the MAF installed? Between air box and throttle body that is. 9. Throttle body is electronically controlled drive by wire, so you do need to have it hooked up. 10. Since the new MAF is also OEM, maybe the wiring or connector is at fault. Is it a true Ford/Motorcraft MAP or something off eBay that claims to be OEM?

all good then!

Do it within a year and you should be good. So about every 4 months or 5,000 miles as you suggested should work fine. Are you using OEM coolant or aftermarket. Might not do any harm to mix aftermarket, but I don't like taking chances. If mixing, I would do it all as soon as possible.

Sad to see this still hanging out. If it is all for the 2007-10 Edge, I can purchase tomorrow. Unless someone jumps on it today

be sure to provide this feedback to your dealer and/or ford customer service also. give them a chance to correct these issues.

Pretty normal. Which is why when you do a DIY "flush", it takes quite a few drains/fills along the way. How many miles on your 2014 now? How many miles do you put on in a year? It will take about 4x of this to finish refreshing the coolant, 1x is done, so 3 more to go.

Not sure if the gen 2 glass has a Carlite or Soundscreen symbol stamped on it. Will be at one of the corners, worth checking.

If I had a setup like that, I would. LOL.

Wouldn't be suprised if the RS is a hybrid powerplant of some sort. Diminishing numbers of pure combustion engines remaining in the top ranks as time marches on.

they should certainly have been paying more attention to the basics. Might be a TSB or even a CSP/recall in the offing if both leaks appear on other STs as well.

typically, the vent is extended into the engine bay, makes it easy. you refill the amount you need to while keeping the cap off the extension tube. then quickly close up the drain plug.

Don't know yet, not enough miles to have an objective evaluation. But a few units here and there have failed early on, I suppose it is bound to happen. BUT they have increased fluid capacities in the Gen 2+ PTUs, so that should help significantly over time. Plus the Gen 2+ PTUs all have drain plugs, silently added by Ford. So maintenance is still required, but should be able to get a lot better life out of them now than ever before.

Yes, but it still sits in between the trans and the right drive axle. It is physically connected. And, as noted in your excerpt, really it is ALWAYS transferring power (except in P/N), it is NOT electronically controlled, purely mechanical. The electronic control is between the driveshaft and the thing people think of as the RDU, aka the ATC. The 4x4 module determines how much to send to the rear axles, and sends the signal to the ATC. The ATC then engages the %age the 4x4 commands.

You can ask Benny in the LevittownFordSuperCenter thread directly, but based on this page, I believe you are looking at part #`12 in the diagram https://parts.levittownfordparts.com/auto-parts/2012/ford/edge/sel-trim/2-0l-l4-gas-engine/body-cat/splash-shields-scat

Welcome to the community!

Just remember you still have the PTU transferring power to the front right axle. Probably less like to fail in a FWD configuration, but no data on that.

A 2011 with orange coolant? Interesting. Probably a late MY 2011, build date of 7/11/2011 or later.
