Update: My backrest cooling no longer works on my 2017 Sport.

Took a look at my seats today, and it looks like I already have the intake sock installed, so wonder what the dealership would do if I took it in for a warranty repair. The picture shows the sock protruding from the bottom of the backrest. I recall clearly that the seat and backs cooled very efficiently when I first bought the Sport, and now only the seats work. @tmarsh were you able to restore the upholstery to look as new without baggy or loose sections?

Question: To assess whether the JLT catch can will work on your vehicle, pull the short hose off and inspect it internally, visually and with a Q-Tip, and if it is bone dry would that be a sign that your driving style does not require a catch can in this location?

Thanks for all your info - I'm just finding it hard to spend $100+ to correct a problem on my vehicle that's still under warranty.

I believe its another casualty of the recent forum update/upgrade, as reported here: https://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/24544-since-the-forum-updateupgrade-the-recent-topics-is-not-updating/

You know what they say about assumptions,....... Where are you getting you information from to guide/steer your assumptions? I'm keen to hear what the difference is on the AWD vehicles.

Each time you should completely fill it to the normal level (the fill plug hole), and the number of short succession refills at about 100 miles would depend on the state of the oil that you drain.

Old thread revival in the hopes that he'll see the request for details on making the rear mudflaps fit, or maybe someone else has a solution for the rear.

That's correct, there's no Sport mudflaps. I have the Ford ones on the front, and they fit OK, but if you look closely you can see that they're not designed for the trim profile. http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/22129-mud-flap-splash-guard-oem-or-3rd-party/?hl=%2Bmud+%2Bflaps

There's extensive roadworks that was completed around the time I bought my Sport in March 2017, and would not be surprised if these roads aren't on the latest maps, but when I went to check for updates I got the bellow message - is that normal that you need to get these from your local dealership?

I'm sorry, you're right, I must have speed read the OP - I have the same understanding of "knockoffs" as you.

OK, I see it.

That doesn't look like a Continental Tire logo.

I'd like much brighter front turn signal lamps and would really appreciate some advice on using these LED's The front turn signals go from dim to blinking - will these work the same, just brighter? If not, what modifications are needed to use these turn signal LED's ?

A non-contact thermometer is not suitable for this. Get one of these cheap digital thermometers at Walgreens and fix it with tape, or whatever method you decide, at the outlet of one of the vents and record the temperature at low fan speed and high speed. A meat thermometer would also work. https://www.walgreens.com/store/c/procheck-30-second-flexible-dishwasher-safe-digital-thermometer-model%3a-mt1p21-pro/ID=prod6175073-product It sounds like an AC gas issue.

I believe the OP was quite clear that he wanted OEM, not knock-off or third party aftermarket, and the two eBay links in this thread and the OP's Craigslist find are OEM, typically new "Take-Off's". The OP was looking for OEM, and that's not what you'll find at Summit Racing.

I can't find OEM wheels on Summit Racing - could you post a direct link?

Bet that's it, because I've heard that Ford Corp's rate they get for warranty work is very low compared to what they get from client paid services. How does the OP know that Ford Corp was actually called - might have been a bluff - I'd first try another dealer, and if that wasn't satisfactory I'd call Ford Corp. I wouldn't mention who's been doing the lube services.

Those specs would be quite adequate for basic use, such as web browsing, MS Office etc., but if you intended using image software such as Photoshop, or video editing software, then I'd go for something with a larger SSD drive and more RAM. If you're a Costco member, take a look at theirs - usually best prices and unbeatable warranty.

This is where I'd buy them: https://www.ebay.com/itm/20-FORD-EDGE-SPORT-PVD-CHROME-WHEELS-RIMS-FACTORY-OEM-2018-SET-4-10047-EXCHANGE/201572058122?fits=Make%3AFord%7CModel%3AEdge%7CSubmodel%3ASEL&epid=819232295&hash=item2eeea1840a%3Ag%3AlosAAOSwyGZaIZVO&_sacat=0&_nkw=ford+edge+sel+wheels&_from=R40&rt=nc&LH_TitleDesc=0

Thanks, looks like we have exposed another defect with the recent forum "upgrade", I responded to the post with that question based on his post count showing "1 posts", whereas he does have additional posts.

What was your fix?

Same here, but not unexpected seeing as the gas tank is such an irregular shape makes it virtually impossible to get a perfectly accurate and linear level measurement. Its a rough guide only.

https://www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.php?id=11031 It could be something as simple as the gas used for your return trip being very different - I get different gas near my home (reformulated) to gas stations near work, 40 miles out of town (not reformulated). You may think that you see benefit in resetting the ECU based on unregulated test environment, but without any engineering explanation based on controlled testing I'd personally not do this.
