  1. @ClemsonEE welcome and appreciate the feedback - one of the best 1st posts I've seen.
  2. I'm not familiar with your model so cant help locate the drain, but are you referring to the air conditioner evaporator drain? - just puzzled by the title "coolant" ......
  3. What do you mean by that ? - a wheel bearing going bad you might feel when rotating it, but can't understand how you moved it up and down. A wheel bearing would need to be very bad for it to cause a dropout of signal from the ABS sensor. It the shocks are bad and the wheel not well balanced it could be skipping and the sensor missing a beat.
  4. What model / engine? - please add that to your signature - Settings - Ford Edge Forum
  5. The typical method is to fill it, record the odometer, ride a reasonable distance fill it again recording the mileage and amount of gas it took to fill - come on, I'm sure you know how that's done.
  6. Is it a gauge accuracy issue, or have you checked the actual mpg?
  7. If you're out of warranty you could buy the valve on its own for $16 and use a heat gun to install it on the existing pipe. https://www.ebay.com/itm/224023795357
  8. @Cerberus Just checked mine and it has the same part number. If I suck on the valve with no power on it seems like its shut pretty tight, but the problem could be that it's not opening correctly.
  9. What video? I tried that, and still get the stutter at idle with a full tank. I've not cleared the code, and will only do that after my Dealership has scanned it as part of the warranty check. I'll soon have a warranty replacement from my Dealership and will report back once its installed. Not sure why the sales sites are reporting that the part number is for a 3.0L
  10. This is the latest version part number: Part Number: GL3Z9B325B https://parts.lakelandford.com/p/75109745/GL3Z9B325B.html Non-OEM https://www.amazon.com/Support-Bracket-Purge-Valve-2015-2017/dp/B08PDD9TNW/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=GL3Z9B325B&qid=1633295220&s=grocery&sr=1-1
  11. Not sure if they're suited for tuned models, but the ones I installed about a year ago haven't given any issues, but neither did the stock original plugs, and I haven't pulled one to take a look.

  12. A quick lube shop? Many "budget" oil change places are notorious for using the wrong oil filter and/or the wrong oil.
  13. Do a forum search. If its the Cleveland engine with those symptoms the solution is not simply a gasket replacement, but an engine replacement.
  14. Where did you get the oil changed? Not wise to drive with it with the low oil pressure light on. What model and year? - please add that to your profile signature - https://www.fordedgeforum.com/settings/signature/ What mileage?
  15. Most dealerships won't allow any more than that amount on a credit card. I highly recommend the below card - its 2% cash back on everything all the time, not like others that offer the cash back on certain purchases for a limited period - I use it for a statement credit. https://www.citi.com/credit-cards/citi-double-cash-credit-card
  16. I completed the brake hose recall and a brake fluid flush today. The rubber glove on the fluid filler defeats the caps breather and limited the amount of fluid mess - with the old hose removed there was no dripping of fluid. For the flush I use a home made pressure bleeder and my oil extractor vacuum - the vacuum isn't really needed, but it makes for a no hassle, no mess.
  17. Correct, and some diagnostics should be able to identify it. Running a fuel system cleaner in a couple of tanks costs very little and can do no harm, and could clear a fouled injector. Seeing that one foreign incorrect spark plug makes me cringe, and conjurers up an image of a drunk redneck shade tree "mechanic" working on it - a clear sign that its been abused. 17Ville2.0 what's the mileage? Do you have the service record? Did you research its history on places like CarFax?
  18. Why? I have 71K miles on my Sport, and expect my ignition coils to last more than twice that - if the time comes, I'll only replace a component like that if testing confirms its failed.
  19. No, just awkward, especially if you have big hands and fat fingers like mine.
  20. Thanks @clegg78 I plan to fill the reservoir leaving very little air then put the cap on with a mechanics rubber glove to stop the caps breather from allowing air in - that should significantly reduce the fluid loss/mess. See attached picture of the goods I picked up from the dealership.
  21. Any pointers for this job? I plan on sealing the master cylinder reservoir cap while I remove the hoses to limit fluid loss introducing air into the system. Want to avoid air in the ABS unit. With the new hoses installed I plan on a fluid flush which I've been holding off until the hoses are replaced.
  22. I contacted my dealership and they have a limited number of the parts. I'll be collecting the parts this afternoon and return the old parts for the dealership to claim from Ford NA. If you're on the waiting list, best call the dealership because they're unlikely to call you.
