Sergepaul Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 I bought a Ford Edge 2015, Platinum edition. Lately, when I put in reverse, it's making an awful grinding noise and the car starts shaking. When I put it back in drive, it stops. Has anyone experienced this lately? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 (edited) Welcome Sergepaul! Do you mean the Titanium? AWD or FWD? Sounds very much like a transmission (clutch) or PTU problem. I would have said possibly brakes if the symptoms appeared even in Drive mode. When you put it in reverse, are you on flat ground, or on a slope (uphill/downhill)? Does this happen even after the car has been driven for a while or only right after when you first start it up for the day? EDIT: If it's trans related, could be as simple as a shift linkage adjustment. Any difference if switching from Neutral to Reverse versus Park to Reverse (all while the Edge is motionless of course) then moving?

Sergepaul Posted November 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 Yes it's the Titanium AWD. I am on flat ground when in reverse and the noise is there even after I have driven it for awhile. Hopefully, it will be a small ajustement in the shift linkage. No difference in the noise from drive to reverse or park to reverse. I will be getting it checked at the beginning of next week. Thank you for your comments. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ganczha Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 I just started having the exact same grinding sound anytime I put my 2012 Titanium in reverse. Must get it checked for same. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kat3cats Posted November 25, 2019 Report Share Posted November 25, 2019 (edited) Did anybody find out anything about this issue? I am having the same exact problem right now, and my Edge is in the shop. They don't know what's wrong with it and can't replicate the issue. It's intermittent. Mine is a 2011 Limited AWD.
