btowns07 Posted September 22, 2007 Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 I have an 07 SEL with 1000 miles. It seems on the morning cold start up there is a "noise" that is hard to describe. I can hear the fuel injectors but this noise sounds like rocker arm clatter or pulley clatter. After driving it a while it's harder to hear. I replaced my 03 Ranger edge with the 07 Edge at it seems the ranger V6 was quiter on startup and a idle. Maybe it's just me but I wanted to check the board for comments.

btowns07 Posted October 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2007 I took my EDGE into the Dealership early this week for the noise. They told me everything was with in normal limits......however if I wanted to meet with the service manager to point out the noise I could. I met with the service manager and pointed out the noise. He told me that he would have a Ford Engineer (I think he said engineer) listen to the noise. I was told the Ford Engineer wants the motor to be sent back for further inspection. It is pure spectulation on what is "wrong". They are shiping a replacement new motor from the factory line on Monday. I should get my EDGE back in 4-5 working days. btowns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This should not happen with a new car and I am concerned about poor quality control. They have already performed the TSB for the "pulling to right" problem but as I have not driven it yet I am not sure whether that problem has been fixed.

btowns07 Posted October 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 I picked up my EDGE 2 days ago. So far so good. The replacement engine runs a lot better than the original (very smooth). The service dept told me to return it at a round 3k. They want to check out the install to insure every thing stays tight and no leaks. btowns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
