  1. Have you had the most recent transmission software installed? Sometimes that helps. Personally, I would do drain and fill only. There are other things that can cause shifting issues, so a good diagnostic might also be useful. The ecm relies on a number of engine and drivetrain sensors to determine shift points, harshness etc.
  2. HA! It sure is a fun machine. I still have a bit of runway yet, so by the time I check out, it may have an aluminum 6.0 LS, coil overs and whatever other goodies I can dream up.
  3. I hear ya. Well, your post has me convinced that it as something to do with EGR too. Maybe even MAP or TPS. It is definitely some sensor contributing to engine management at low part throttle. I dont know much about newer systems, but I was doing my apprenticeship when GM started with efi, and EGR only came into play once the engine was at operating temp and in closed loop. I like the vehicle too. Mine is over 160,000 kms now and no torque convertor issues. At this point, if it goes, I will replace the whole trans myself rather than lose money trading it in for something with similar problems. I'm done throwing money at Ford Credit. My kids will get this car in my will!
  4. Good call on the hose clamp. I did the full procedure heating up to operating temp and using the level plug. A dealership did the last drain and fill and I didn't entirely trust how they did the fill.
  5. So far so good. If it does come back, it could be a weak battery issue.
  6. Thanks very much Omar! I will try it today and update later.
  7. I have not used Forscan yet, but one thing I've found with mine is that the "tugging" only occurs on a damp, cool day, on a cold start. Once everything is up to operating temp, the condition quits. It was far worse before replacing the dpfe. I have not tried to replace the egr itself yet, but I may do that next.
  8. My 2019 Titanium has 2 distinctly different seatbelt alarms. One is a gentle, tolerable chime that does the job. The other is a sharper, more urgent ding that is less tolerable. I've tried to figure out if there are specific triggers, but it just seems to be random as to which alarm I will get. Thanks for any insight.
  9. Nice to see people doing these kinds of mods and upgrades to new vehicles.
  10. It's actually very cool. I went from driving disposal used 80's and 90's 500 dollar bombs as personal vehicles for most of my life to this 2019 edge and I cant say enough good about it. Comfy, handles great, roomy, runs like a champ and all the gadgets and conveniences work well. Turns out to be easy to work on as well. You will like the adaptive cruise lane centering. As someone who was happy with crank windows and manual steering, I cant believe how well integrated and intuitive all the features are.
  11. Ah yes..,turn signal stalk. Thanks. I 100% agree, I love the lane centering with the adaptive cruise. Works very well. I'm sure I will draw fire from the safety zealots, but I found out by mistake that if I hang my metal hand gripper off one spoke of the steering wheel, it is enough weight to simulate driver input and will happily steer itself along for hours. (I drive alot for work).
  12. Good work, let us know. I have a 2019 and I was confused as to why I had lane keep as part of the cruise control and also an option for it as a button on the end of the wiper stalk, Still dont know why, but I like the vehicle.
  13. If the RDU fluid is the same as my 2019, you may want to sit down before you see the price. Thankfully it doesn't take much. It was different than the PTU fluid for my 2019.
