I need to correct my estimated remaining life on the Alenza's. Was at Discount Tire to get a free balancing done and they reported 5/32" remaining tread depth and offered $888 off on a new set of tires based on the fact that these would not make the 80K mile guarantee. 26,630 miles with 5/32" remaining. I declined because I'd rather have my next set of tires installed at Costco but need to check the numbers to see if its best to take the $888 at Discount Tire. Now to decide on what tires too use next or just stick with the Alenza's - the original Pirelli's lasted longer.

Pramirez49 what system did you install?

All the best with the Explorer - everyone that I know that has one is very happy with them. You'll be lucky if the Explorer forum has a @Haz

Has anyone modified their 2015 - 2019 infotainment system? I saw the below ad and it perked my interest,......just a little. Ford Edge (2015 – 2019) 13.6″ IPS HD Touch-Screen Android Navigation System | Android 11 | GPS | BT | Wifi | CAMERA | CarPlay

You can disable the hyperflash with Forscan and change them to Turn Signal Only, not Park & Turn Signal. The ForScan changes were: 726-29-02 xxx* xxxx xxxx 0=Turn Only 1=Turn & Parking/Position

Thanks omar302 That rubber flap on mine is also not compressed, and no oil leaks to be seen - I'm guessing the mount is still good. Today I got it on four jack stands and checked everything out on the underside, drive shafts, all engine and transmission mounts, prop-shaft as best I could see and feel. I did an engine oil change and PTU change while I had it elevated - only been 3K miles since I last changed both. First pulled the PTU fill plug and nothing dripped - was concerned that trans fluid was leaking by the seals, but that's a non-issue now. The only thing done different was I rotated the wheels - all four tire wear is even, fronts same wear as rears. I then took it on the interstate and could not invoke the shimmy again, so I'm suspecting one of the wheels that was on the front needs balancing - will be going back to Discount Tires for all four balancing.

Have you tried any of the suggestions above?

I don't see any LED replacements for that bulb type. Signal Lamp Bulb - Ford (DS7Z-13466-A)

Compared to the height of a new mount, mine looks compressed.

My wife's BMW X5 has two of these hydraulic engine mounts, and I have replaced one of them - it leaked oil and was compressed. The Edge Sport has only one of them on the right side and mine looks compressed/collapsed - see below photo - hows this compare to yours? If I get off work early enough tomorrow I'll get it up on four jack stands and inspect everything underneath - I always inspect the drive-shaft rubber boots when I do oil changes and they're all in good condition with no lubricant leakage.

Welcome. Looks like you've done your homework and already know about the internal coolant pump, and yes change it ASAP if there's no record. Personally, I'd look at something that doesn't have this coolant pump issue. Also do transmission, PTU and RDU fluid changes.

My 2017 Sport is very well maintained with 107K miles on the clock. It runs very smooth but has a slight drive-line gear whine when above 50 mph and still sending power to the rear, but I can live with that. More concerning is when on the interstate cruising at speeds above +- 50 mph and accelerate fairly hard, I can feel a shimmy shake which feels like an out of balance wheel, but subsides as soon as I let off the accelerator. Next weekend I'll be doing a lube service including the PTU, and wanted to hear from you folks what I should inspect to identify the cause of the shimmy shake. I'll also get the wheels balanced, but doubting that this is what I'm feeling.

And ForscanLite mobile app ($free) just for reading fault codes.

Welcome. I doubt that its financially viable to spend $5800 on a 2007 model, and that wouldn't be an engine overhaul. The head gasket sealer is hit and miss, but you've got nothing to lose, go for it.

If the engine quits the low oil pressure light will of course come on.

Anything else you haven't mentioned? Clear the codes and scan it with Forscan. Best you find a qualified reputable real mechanic.

Welcome. Sounds like you've got a few acquaintances that like guessing at your expense, ..... don't listen to them. You could stop by a place like AutoZone and have them scan it for stored fault codes, or more reliable get a ODBII adapter and Forscan app (free) and scan it.

You could do a compression and leakdown test - if that's in spec then yes it could be the PCV system. A catch-can won't eliminate the oil consumption if you have a piston blow-by issue, but it would be beneficial not having the oil going into the intake and then the combustion chamber.

What Edge, SEL, Sport or ST ?

Have you considered that?
