We need a little bit more information. Why is the turbo requiring to be replaced? What codes are getting thrown in the vehicle? How long have you been driving it after the codes have popped up? I swallowed this very large pill about two weeks ago with 77,000 miles did not have anything to do with the turbo they will charge you for an AC system discharge and recharge, and an alignment on top of the long block replacement labor just due to the nature of the task.

Has anyone had any assistance from Ford on the long block replacement out of warranty. I have already had issue confirmed by another shop, but Ford wants me to bring it to a FORD dealer before they will even talk about it. Spoke with the dealer and they said 7300 for a the service. I just dont want to pay them an additional 200 for the Diag and get told it will be 7300 bucks for a new engine.

For those of us that have had this issue outside of warranty, how long can/have you pushed it. Called the dealer yesterday and was quoted 7300 for a long block. Got some quotes from a couple Indy shops of about 4500 used engine low miles. can I put a 2020 edge engine in a 2017? When I go to verify fit on eBay it reads doesn’t fit my car. There are plenty of totaled Edges out here with low miles and later model years where this issue seems to be resolved. Did a crazy amount of research before I purchased this car in Sept 2020 (TSB was just making it way from ford then) Trade in value is IMHO crap even with no issues, know everything with this vehicle and well let’s face it stuff isn’t made like it used to be. if I do go though with the engine replacement as long as they are in there what else should I have them do. There is the flex plate issue new plate is like 45 bucks from ford. Seems like a no brainer to just have that done for the piece of mind. Any thoughts or constructive advise appreciated.

Have a 2017 edge with a 2.0 eco-boost 78K miles. looking like I’m getting the beginning of the coolant intrusion issue of noticed coolant low in my tank white exhaust was just kind of curious as to what everybody’s doing about this. I’m obviously out of warranty. I’ve heard people have contacted. Ford and Ford is done a courtesy program for him wondering how, I’ve gotten a couple estimates for engine replacement but just kind of looking for some advice as what to do right now.
