This is my maintenance schedule: • Oil - Full Synthetic (5k) • Brake Fluid (40K) • Transmission Flush (30K) • Coolant Flush (45K) • Spark Plug replacement/Tune Up (45K) • PTU (30K) • RDU (30K - same time as PTU) • I have a catch can on mine: https://www.jlosc.com/jl-3-0-oil-separator-passenger-side-2015-2020-edge-sport-st-lincoln-mkx-2-7l-ecoboost/ • I'll still have the dealer do a The Works Plus Package that includes a treatment of BG 44K once every 3 oil changes

That sounds like it’s from the Workshop Manual or something. I don’t own that but, if so, that does make logical sense. It’s still curious to me that the parts website seems to list the same part for the 2.0 and 2.7 but it could very well be inaccurate.

I’m not sure there’s actually any real difference between the PTU that the 2.0L trims have and the 2.7L. Maybe there is and I haven’t seen it but they seem to share the same part numbers on the assemblies. Here is one without the hot weather group (without cooler): https://ford.oempartsonline.com/oem-parts/ford-transfer-case-k2gz7251m Here is one with the hot weather group (with cooler): https://ford.oempartsonline.com/oem-parts/ford-transfer-case-k2gz7251e As you may notice, both of these fit the 2.0L and 2.7L. There are differences in the differentials though. 2.0 Diff: https://ford.oempartsonline.com/oem-parts/ford-differential-assembly-k2gz4000u?c=Zz1zdXNwZW5zaW9uJnM9YXhsZS1hbmQtZGlmZmVyZW50aWFsJmw9MSZuPVNlYXJjaCBSZXN1bHRzJmE9Zm9yZCZvPWVkZ2UmeT0yMDIyJnQ9dGl0YW5pdW0mZT0yLTBsLWw0LWdhcw%3D%3D 2.7 Diff: https://ford.oempartsonline.com/oem-parts/ford-differential-assembly-k2gz4000r?c=Zz1zdXNwZW5zaW9uJnM9YXhsZS1hbmQtZGlmZmVyZW50aWFsJmw9MSZuPVNlYXJjaCBSZXN1bHRzJmE9Zm9yZCZvPWVkZ2UmeT0yMDIyJnQ9c3QmZT0yLTdsLXY2LWdhcw%3D%3D

Correct

I did go ahead and flush the transmission fluid on mine at 30K, as that also services the front differential, but probably not as big of a concern as the PTU. I always do the transmission fluid every 30K on all of my vehicles I actually care about though.

For what it’s worth, I have a 2022 Edge ST and the documentation the Ford techs use when servicing the PTU and RDU. Inside of it, you will see all of the parts required as well as the OEM fluids. It could be a little dependent on year and perhaps even packages selected on the build (400a vs 401a) but mine has a cooler attached to the PTU. 2022 Edge ST Rear Differential Fluid Change.pdf 2022 Edge ST PTU Fluid Change.pdf

I did manage to track down a VIN from a Vignale trim in Italy. Looking at it, there are loads of differences. I'll play around with it a bit more and see if I can get it.

@garycrist good information and I completely agree with @lildisco regarding the maintenance schedule for these transmissions. I changed the PTU and RDU fluid as well before 30K. For reference, here are the instructions that the shop uses when changing the transmission fluid. 2022 Edge ST Transmission Fluid Drain and Refill.pdf 2022 Edge ST Air Cleaner Outlet Pipe.pdf 2022 Edge ST Air Cleaner.pdf

Done - thank you.

That's actually the tool I've been using to download the ab files so I can compare them, post JSON formatting, in WinMerge. Pretty useful link.

@Wubster100 those changes didn't seem to work. For full context, I am comparing a Canadian 2022 Edge ST 401a to my US 2022 Edge ST 401a. The changes you notated were some of the differences between the Canadian ST I was looking at and mine. I also tried using the identical values to the Canadian ST in the IPMA and IPC modules (SCCM and HCM were already the same) and the only thing either did successfully was remove the DRL option in the instrument cluster. I ended up reverting back but it's making me wonder if the Canadian Edge even supports the Glare Free option or if that's an EU/UK only thing. Unfortunately, it seems like getting a VIN in the UK/EU is nearly impossible since it's considered PII.

Yes, I do have the dual projector headlights.

Thanks, @Wubster100. I'll try these tonight or tomorrow and let you know how this works. The HCM module from mine looks identical to the Canadian Edge.

Thanks, @Haz and @sc00by. I did experiment with the IPC module by using the same settings as a Canadian Ford Edge 401a. I did not see the Lighting > Auto Highbeam option change to "Glare Free Highbeam" so figured it wasn't working. It sounds like it still says "Auto Highbeam" in the menus even when Glare Free Lighting is being used though if I'm understanding what the UK Owners Manual says though.
