I have ~80K on my Edge. Just changed all 4 rotors and pads (Powerstop with ceramic pads). Did the install myself. Everything was taken apart, cleaned, greased appropriately, and torqued back together. Brakes work really well. Now have about 300 miles on them. The other night I made a hard stop and they performed great, but right before the vehicle came to a complete stop, I heard a grinding (95% it is coming from the front) Tried it a few more times and still hear it. So I took the wheels off and checked everything. No issues I can see. Rotors feel perfectly smooth, etc. I took them out and bedded them with about 30 30-5mph hard stops with 30 seconds in between, then let them cool off (per Powerstop recommendations). Noise is still there right at the very end before complete stop. Any ideas? Thanks!

Thanks. It is boggling as there is nothing wrong with this one compared to the other 3, so no idea why it is loose. Seems to hold onto the wheel itself really well, just wiggles back and forth.

I have a 2016 Edge SEL with the black Ford wheel skins (plastic covers). I noticed one is very loose on the wheel. Took it off and checked all tabs are there and I don't see any apparent issues. Are the tabs just stressed over time and now loose or am I missing something? Is there a way to fix this? Maybe take a heat gun and gently bend the tabs in for more clamping force? Thanks!

Konradoo, I bought the sensor and was prepared to replace it. Then the code went away. I suspect it is the PCM issue and not the sensor, but since the code went away I have not addressed any further.

Thanks for all your help Haz!

I have read about this code and the TSB 18-2212 for PCM reprogramming. Since the reprogramming is $190 at my dealership, I figured I might as well replace the sensor to see if it is the actual issue. Can someone show me where sensor 2 (downstream) is on the 2016 2.0L? Thanks!!!

Welcome, this is a great forum. I joined last year after getting my 2016 SEL. I am also in Bend, so I know exactly what you mean about the cinder! :)

I have a 2016 Edge SEL. Ran codes today and found this one below. I started the car and verified brake lights work, but not the high mounted one. I checked fuses and didn't see anything, which I didn't expect because other brake lights work. What else should I check? Is there a Ford manual on how to replace this light? It is still under my used car warranty, but want to check everything first as our only local dealer is backed up for weeks. Thanks! Code: B1115 - High Mounted Stop Lamp Control, Incorrect Current Consumption, Suspect Incorrect Bulb Fitted Additional Fault Symptom: - Circuit Short to Battery or Open Status: - Previously Set DTC - Not Present at Time of Request - Malfunction Indicator Lamp if Off for this DTC - Test not complete

Thanks Gadgetjq. I will be doing mine as well shortly. Manual says 11.8oz for the PTU. So maybe keep track of how much you are actually adding as well to verify that. ?
-
Thanks guys. I had the dealership flush tranny and coolant before I ever picked it up. I changed the oil myself and added a Fumoto valve. Last thing left is PTU change with Motorcraft fluid. I bought a new jack and jack pad, just need to find a good place to put the jack stands in the front and then find the time. ?

Thought I would provide a pic of my Edge that I finally picked up last Thursday. Sorry for the bad picture but the only one I have now. 2016 Edge SEL Black/Black Leather with Black wheels and grill.

Roger that. Thanks for the info!!!
-
One more question. I looked at the maintenance schedule in the manual and the tranny fluid shows 150K for the first change. Do I really need to change the fluid at 44K miles?
-
Thanks GadgetJQ. Once I get the car I will have to get under it to see the transmission. I will see how much the dealership will charge since they flush it and it is done.

lildisco, thanks for the advice. I think the only fluid I can't change is the tranny, but I should be able to do all the others. For air filters, does everyone use K&N or just standard paper? For the SYNC3 update, we have iPhones. How do I upgrade the USB hub like you are referring to? (I am a techie moron). Thanks.

First post here. Couldn't find anything on this with my limited search. I am purchasing a 2016 Ford Edge SEL (2L ECO, AWD) with 44K miles next week. I have read a little and know I need to change the PTU fluid, which I should be able to do myself since I believe Ford put a drain plug in 2016. Any other standard maintence I should do after purchase? I have already checked the VIN and there are zero recalls from Ford or NHTSA. Appreciate the help!
