Please enlighten me on where to find anything about the PTU, diffs, transmission. https://www.fordservicecontent.com/Ford_Content/vdirsnet/OwnerManual/Home/Content?variantid=7056&languageCode=en&countryCode=USA&Uid=G2063585&ProcUid=G2063586&userMarket=USA&div=f&vCode=2FMPK4AP1LBB55974&vFilteringEnabled=True&buildtype=web

Greetings, I am looking for something which indicates when fluids need to be changed. For example, when would I need to change fluid in any of the systems? I am looking at the owners manual and am not seeing anything about the differentials, PTU or other systems outside of oil. Does someone have a chart of intervals for maintenance needed on the edge? Thanks!

This thumbdrive worked. It was also the largest capacity drive I tried so I wonder if there is a min size requirement?

I bought one of these, we'll see. I have been using 8, 32, and 64gb drives. I was thinking about trying itunes to load the songs onto my iphone.

I am having a challenge finding a usb thumb drive which works with Sync 3. I've tried several thumb drives in different sizes and file systems but I continue to encounter "unsupported USB device, please remove." Am curious for anyone using a thumb drive, what is the make and model? I have a plethora of MP3 files I'd like to play from the drive. Almost was going to burn a CD but there is no optical drive in my car🤣

Attempted to install a CVF intercooler. Attempted. They didn't put threads on the end tank for the map sensor...😮

Disabling the ANC disables fake engine sounds per forscan posts. I also needed to disable ANC to accommodate an aftermarket sub.

What ford suggests for the ecoboost motors: Engine Oil - SAE 5W-30 - Synthetic Blend Motor Oil XO-5W30-Q1SP I am honestly shocked they suggest a blended oil, for sure though it would be full syn.

The card has no annual fee and cash back is basically free money for using the card. You would have spent the money either way but get a perk in the form of cash back. Slap a rebate on top and bam.

I also use Pennzoil...my hack for free oil is wait for a rebate and buy with cash back points so I essentially get free oil. Check Pennzoil's site for a rebate form, it will list which retailers you can claim the rebate for. https://www.pennzoil.com/en_us/promotions/do-it-yourself-oil-change/pennzoil-platinum-rewards-national-promotion.html

Except to a point you need all of this BS because of how much BS has been cooked in. I was in awe the first time I connected to forscan with this car. Oh my modules...coming from older Fords it has be stepping with care. I have a text document of all changes made, when, and why so if something goes sideways we can back track. There simply is not a lot of "must have" forscan changes for the Edge. I've seen many change the number of blinks the blinker makes when tapping it and just hold mine down while I do a pass/turn. I wouldn't mind some more IPC stuff but it's working as it should so why mess with it? Normally I am a "void the warranty" kind of guy but maybe I am getting old.

If it was me, I would document the original setting and try it. The one thing I think I read about disabling the start/stop is that the battery management is disabled which I personally would not do. Maybe I am wrong.

There's a TON of grounds on the Edge and they are all painted over with a bolt going through them. I can only imagine if this thing was 20 years old trying to chase electrical gremlins. I installed the amp.sub today. Since I don't have enough power to really drive it, it is fused at 150a. The wires are extra long intentionally as this is temporary. Longer term the amp and LOC will go under the carpet but that's a project for another day. Initial impression: That's a lot of bass. Might be a little heavy for the factory speakers to keep up but Pink Floyd and Fear Factory are just about right.

My car did not come with a manual (should it have?) and I ended up buying a used one off ebay. IDK if the ST trim got it's own manual or addendums, I just got an "edge" manual and have read a good portion of it. Something I do with all the vehicles I buy. You can see manuals online here(I think there was a PDF version if you wanted to print it): https://www.ford.com/support/owner-manuals/ Despite being an 80's baby I still enjoy flipping paper and the feel of a #2 pencil on paper😉
