  1. Dabangsta, Thank you for the info. I wondered if there were changes. These later model vehicles have to have something changed every year or two. So it's impossible to swap any components like the drivetrain easily. I'm ready to go back to a 1979 Camaro or something! Too much money for these newer cookie cutters. The longblock price for the Edge I can deal with. $2500.00 bucks. It's the labor nowadays. I've been a mechanic/electrician for 40+ year's. Recently swapped out a subframe on a '95 Chevy Astro van that was rotted out. I could swap out the engine on the Edge, but what issues would be next?? Programming?
  2. Hello, I have a 2016 Ford Edge SE 2.0L ecoboost fwd that just suffered coolant intrusion on cylinder #3. Was wondering if it's possible to do an engine swap from a 2020 & up Edge with the same setup? Has anyone out there done this yet? Any info appreciated. I took it to our local auto repair shop & they want $6K to swap it out with a reman motor from Jasper. Unfortunately, Ford has the engines on hold?? Just wondering if a 2020 & up would swap out easily into a 2016?
  3. Hello, I have a 2016 Ford Edge SE 2.0 ecoboost that has an issue with the start/stop function. Shortly after starting the vehicle, the switch on the console lights up, start/stop will not work. Pushing the switch to turn it back on will not work? It stays locked off or the engine will not ever shut off at a stop. This started after I had the flex plate replaced back in April of this year. The vehicle has 178K on the engine. The transmission shop wants to charge me $150/hr. to diagnose it now, after they were the ones that did the repair?? Also, after their repair, we started getting a check engine fault code. P0303 cylinder #3 misfire? I swapped coil packs and spark plugs between cylinders to see if problem would move to cylinder #2? Fault code is still cylinder #3? The engine has issues like it starving for fuel possibly. RPM's fluctuate between 500 and 800 RPM randomly, not all the time? I haven't changed the fuel pump out yet, but I'm planning to with the mileage on it. Anyone have any ideas or had these issues?
