Have questions on Rear Diff Clutch replacement NEED HELP!
1004ron replied to sportspice's topic in 2.7L EcoBoost
Yes, it should contain fluid. -
Thanks for that confirmation. What did the cost? Is it good quality with hyperlinks and word search etc.?
-
Give your owner's manual a browse - I find the downloaded PDF to be most useful because it has the word search feature - search for "Scheduled Maintenance".

In that case they did only one drain-fill which isn't worth much - most would do at least 3 drain-fill and even then, its only about 60 - 80% replaced.

2014 Ford Edge - Backup camera working intermittently
1004ron replied to NickCo's topic in Audio, Backup, Navigation & SYNC
Well that "success" was short lived. Had to run an errand and when engaging reverse in my garage it was darker and distorted - a few times after that and when I returned home it worked in my garage. I'd like to go with the much cheaper 3rd party cameras that are abundantly available but would hate to go through all the install work and have issues with the lines and a different viewing angle. .- 19 replies

2014 Ford Edge - Backup camera working intermittently
1004ron replied to NickCo's topic in Audio, Backup, Navigation & SYNC
I did this job today. Its fiddly job getting all the white clips engaged again while trying to manhandle the internal cover - it will be so much more straight forward next time, which I'm hoping isn't required. No sign of contact corrosion - I added dielectric grease to the connectors and reassembled - worked each time following this activity, but not forgetting that it was an intermittent problem. If it misbehaves again I'll try replacing the camera but reluctant to go with 3rd party, but if I find one with good reviews, particularly from folks here, I may consider it.- 19 replies

Has anyone bought a service manual from "Factory-Manuals" ? https://www.factory-manuals.com/shop/2017-ford-edge-repair-manual/

Looking at that new drain plug I see that it allows a more controlled drain flow - you can partially turn it out until there's flow from the port while the threads are still engaged. Getting the small O-ring on the tip of the filter housing I take off the gloves and make sure everything is dry then push it down and over. .

2008 Ford edge crankshaft or anti theft system
1004ron replied to Vance correa's topic in 2008 Edge & MKX
Turning it counter-clock most likely caused it to jump valve timing - does it turn clockwise using a wrench? I expect you'll need to pull the timing covers and re-time the cams. -
Keen to hear how the new style works for you. BTW, I have a new spare which I haven't had the need to use because the original is still working perfectly with 116K on the clock.

2014 Ford Edge - Backup camera working intermittently
1004ron replied to NickCo's topic in Audio, Backup, Navigation & SYNC
Looks like my turn to put the useful posts above to good use. About a week ago my 2017 started having a bad image with fluttering noise when I backed out my garage and then when I arrive at work it would be fine and when leaving work it would be fine - an intermittent issue which usually occurs the first time its used in the mornings. I'm suspecting a bad connection so I'll pull the covers off and inspect connectors and add dielectric grease where needed, and search for moisture ingress - if all that fails I'll look at a replacement camera.- 19 replies

RDU Motor Actuator, failure advice? Part number?
1004ron replied to Gnerffed's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
You may find a few other code readers capable of clearing the codes - Forscan and Forscan Lite will clear the codes.- 13 replies

Welcome. What model and year is your Edge? Whatever you do, don't use a 3rd Party Non-OEM assembly.

My Google search results advise against changing viscosity - I would not experiment with it.

Just checked on Apple Store and it's still showing available for download.

Front end noise "wobbling" when releasing the accelerator
1004ron replied to Virg0220's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
I have something similar which I haven't yet resolved, except mine is the opposite - I get the shake/wobble when accelerating at speeds 55 to 65 mph. When accelerating and decelerating the drive applies forces on the toe - accelerating tends to toe-in and decelerating toe-out. Possible causes are as @enigma-2 stated and inner/outer tie rod ends. -
