The malfunction seems to be more infrequent, but good that I haven't bought a replacement camera yet because a second recall notice just showed up on my CarFax. Got two recalls now, the rear brake hoses and the backup camera.

I've got 4 new seals in their original packaging and a good used plug from my wife's Mustang which we no longer have - free to a good home if you pay the USPS. Also a good deal on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000CGMPX2?creative=9325&camp=1789&linkCode=ur2&ie=UTF8&tag=slickdeals09-20&ascsubtag=f7a9e07c910011f08c5a9683d2ab67590INT&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1#averageCustomerReviewsAnchor

I would go with the H6 AGM Everstart Platinum from Walmart. Be sure to reset your battery monitoring and select a new battery code if you change size and type.

What's behind your thoughts of changing the timing chain around 100K? I've got 117,000 miles on my 2016 2.7L and don't have plans to change the timing chain, but might reconsider that depending on what I hear back from you.

A little research confirms that the 2019 ST and onwards use the belt driven oil pump. https://ford.oempartsonline.com/oem-parts/ford-engine-timing-belt-jt4z6b651a?c=Zz1lbmdpbmUmcz1vaWwtcHVtcCZsPTgzJm49QXNzZW1ibGllcyBQYWdlJmE9Zm9yZCZvPWVkZ2UmeT0yMDE5JnQ9c3QmZT0yLTdsLXY2LWdhcw%3D%3D Do we have any idea on how these are holding up? - haven't heard of any reports on this forum, but that could be that there would be very few at 100K miles or more.

What Model/Year do you have? - Please add that to your profile signature - https://www.fordedgeforum.com/settings/signature/ Can you confirm that the 2.7L V6 in the Ford Edge has a belt driven oil pump.

@GoshenTop as can be seen, it's valuable to have your Model/Year in your profile signature - Settings - Ford Edge Forum @Cerberus no need to beat yourself up over this - I only learnt about this AWD setup on the later models just the other day. MACT's videos are actually quite good, just need to fast forward past the intro which can be a little drawn-out on some of his videos.

Welcome. That would depend on your Model/Year. Please add your Model/Year to your profile signature - Settings - Ford Edge Forum

This recall is now showing on my CarFax.

Yes, it should contain fluid.

I replaced my front ones under recall, now need to keep a look out for the notice on the rears.

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.

Welcome. I don't have any suggestions on what's likely the cause, but would scan for codes with Forscan or Forscan Lite.

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. .

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.

That's why we promote diagnostics, to avoid replacing parts that aren't needed. What prompted you to replace the VVT124's ?

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. .

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.
