New to me Edge owner

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone. I am a new owner of a 2007 Edge SEL AWD, it has some issues which I will address in the appropriate forum. We bought it to replace our 2002 Explorer that had major engine problems. We also currently own a 2005 Chevy Avalanche. Other than the '02 Explorer we have had a 2006 F150 XLT SuperCrew 4x4, and a '92 Explorer. All of them with over 350 Thousand K. The Avy is close to 4 hundred. I do almost all the work on the vehicles myself and find forums such as this to be of major value.

Welcome to the Herd!

Best to be aware of the NotoriousFailureItems in your V6~3.5L~DOHC powered 2007 Edge AWD:

* PTU: suction out & renew GearOil now & at least every 33kMiles\4Yrs; personal preference is every 8Kmiles\1Yr; best to Drilll+Tap a Drain

* InternalChainDriven WaterPump; no real fix for this, if inner seal or bearing fails it will put Coolant into OilPan & destroy engine

* Radiator Fan Control Module on upper left of FanCowling, fails & causes overheat; replace with MotorCraft only, not aftermarket.
