Hello all!    Recently bought a 2022 Edge SEL AWD for my wife. 35k on the odometer. We now have 3 Fords in our "stable".... a 2019 Ranger XLT 4x4 (my daily) and my toy, a 2016 Mustang GT. Pics to come later, when I'm not so busy!

Hi..  I have a P0706, P0707 and P1702 error code pointing to a faulty transmission range sensor on my Ford edge 2013 2.0 Ecoboost.. The technician insists that the TRS sensor is internal and they have to open a part of the gear.. But I checked on Chatgpt and it stated emphatically that the TRS sensor is external and I should not let the technician open the gear..  Please experience people in the house, kindly advise urgently where the TRS sensor is in the Ford edge 2013 2.0 ecoboost.. I don't want the technician opening up the gear if the sensor is external.  Kindly help..

That press release looks to me like they planned to relabel they BG44K in the Ford branded package.   I can vouch for the 44K stuff in the 2.7.  Having used it, the stuff is legit.

Also Valvoline Protect and Restore the oil.

Following a Google search it seems it was not a rumor, but an actual agreement.  BG's press release announcement here.  Attached is a Motorcraft leaflet.  Parts can be found online, examples: PM-44-A here.  PM-30-K here.  Chemical_Product_Flyers.pdf

The update turned off a couple features and changed color on display, very minor.

Thanks Enigma.   I was able to fix my parasitic draw issue, or at least it's gone for now.   I remembered I was having problems with my ignition key switch a while back where the key was sticking and wouldn't turn easily. I decided to spray electronics cleaner into the key switch and worked the key in and out cleaning debris with a cloth.  The parasitic draw stopped immediately.   Similar to the tailgate connector corrosion causing the PCM to not go into sleep mode, the ignition key switch was doing the same.   I'm symptom free for 5 days.

Makes perfect sense. If they can charge you a ridiculous amount of money to do it at the dealership, as opposed to a 10 dollar bottle you can do yourself. I run a bottle of Chevron Complete fuel system cleaner with a full tank of gas about every 3-4 thousand miles.   

There were online rumors last yr that Ford and BG had ageed to market a Motorcraft branded fuel additive. i called the parts guy today at the dealer and he said the stuff had been for sale and then withdrawn and then pitched me to get a fuel system cleanup at the dealership.

Oops I replied thinking this was a different post.  Ill keep an eye out and look more into this.  Thx.
