Purchased my first Edge.  Got a one owner 2015 SEL 3.5 with 23,000 original miles.  Believe it or not it’s had 9 oil changes!

I just purchased a 2015 Ford Edge SEL with 24,000 original miles.  Had all the information I could have asked for except the keyless door code.  After standing on my head trying to find it under the dash, I remembered my Xtools scan tool.  Sure enough, about five minutes later I found the code in the BCM folder.  I really like my Xtools.

"Were you listing to Boss Radio (Rock and Roll) in the 60's?"   WLS out of Chicago & WSM out of Nashville.    Dick Biondi was a crazy DJ on WLS back in the 60's. Screaming, always screaming. Huge audience. Used to call himself the "wild I-tralian." First DJ in the country to introduce the Beatles. Several others as well.    Remember he held a contest, which did the audience think would be the bigger hit, the "Beatles" Please, Please Me, or a song (forget which) by the "Peanut Butter Conspiracy." (Care to guess who won?) That was the first time Americans ever heard the Beatles.  Anyway, I remember that night (for certain other reasons.) That was right after a basketball sectional game, back in 63. (H.S. Basketball - Indiana.)    He got fired after he cracked the joke "guess what new game they're playing in Washington? Its called Jack-in-the-box." (Jackie Kennedy just announced that she was pregnant.) They cut to commercial and when they came back, he was gone.   That was the night the music died. (At least on AM radio ... Dick Biondi was as big a celebrity as we had in the Midwest. And we'd pretty much forgotten Buddy Holly by then.)       .

Hi all,   2020 Edge SEL   My GF purchased this vehicle used a couple of months ago (with a dealer's 3/3000 powertrain warranty good for 3 more weeks).  At that time the engine was in the quieter range of what one would expect from an EB engine...a fluttery typewriter, or perhaps a 'soft' tapping from the high pressure fuel pump (HPFP).  About a month ago a metal rattling noise appeared overnight (most apparent during deceleration), and it had a distinctly louder metallic tone (similar to valve train noise).  After some communication including videos, we took it to the dealer, and ultimately it was identified as a failing HPFP, so that was replaced along with its roller piston.  That quieted down the overall sound level, but there was a persistent 'tapping' noise coming from the back driver's side of the engine where initially I had attempted to steer some focus with the tech who performed the aforementioned HPFP repair.  I think my observation was dismissed.  Subjectively I've felt it is getting louder, so yesterday I decided to put a stethoscope on it.     Intake side is about what i'd expect for a healthy sounding valve train, and it was pretty quiet around and on the HPFP (and for the record, this engine's HPFP is driven off the intake cam...most 2.0L EB videos and pics I see show it running off the exhaust cam...not sure when that changed).  Anyway, the exhaust side was noticeably louder than the intake side starting at cylinder #1, but I attributed that to the presence of the injectors.  Cylinder #2 was slightly louder, but not alarming; however, when I got to cylinder #3 the sound was maybe twice as loud, and cylnder #4, while not as loud as #3, was considerably louder than #1 and #2.  I wish I could say the sound is metallic, but there's so much injector noise (assumed) I can't be 100% certain.   I listened to several other areas on the block, and if I place the stethoscope just right on the upper portion of the intake side of the block, I can hear a very faint high pitch 'ping' that seems to correlate to a single cylinder's timing sequence.  I can't get to the back/exhaust side of the block, so I can't really narrow the ping down.  Turbo, timing cover area, and lower block all sound pretty good.     Question:  Is there anything in the design of this engine that would cause #3 and #4 cylinders to exhibit far louder internal sounds under the exhaust-side valve cover?    Here is a link to the engine running at idle (file size was too large to attach here):  https://drive.google.com/file/d/1QP4IAkaUk_68z3KxZwLQGhBsyfpaeFzx/view?usp=sharing   Thanks for any input.   Edited for clarity

That is some thread!  Thanks.  The design of the hood hinge area on the 2013 is different.  I'm still searching.

IThat's a bad sign. The water pump is leaking and he should NOT DRIVE THE CAR. It will cause damage. Get it serviced immediately.    I'm going to have my 09 MKX  changed at around ~150—175k for preventive maintenance. At that time, will also have everything else that fails replaced as well, ie, timing chain and guides, cam phasers (not a common failure on naturally aspirated 350's, but why chance it), spark plugs, coil boots, PVC, etc.   On the fence over also changing the injectors and coils.    Motorcraft parts only, of course. 

On my car, the shark fin serves two functions (that I'm aware of), one section serves the Siris Radio reception and the other is for GPS. My car has a separate antenna for AM/FM. In driving later year's Edge models (loaners) I dis notice much poorer reception (rural in my area. Only able to listen to three (local) stations. Others were extremely poor. Even on my MKX, reception is still iffy.   But then again, I never listen to AM anyway. Mostly Sirus Radio (probably 95%), CD's and DVD's, talking books recorded to the hard drive, or connected jump drives.   In later models, I believe that it also connects to cell towers for modem service through the internet. (I've also read that it provides Bluetooth service as well.)

I wanted to provide some closure on my whine/roar.   After spraying the center bushing with lubricant and the whine/roar going away, I pulled the trigger and ordered a new center bushing.   I used ramps on the passenger side to have the length of the vehicle up.   I had to drop the exhaust, prior to cat (had to grind off the bolts),  I then jacked up the front driver side to get the wheel enough off the ground so I could turn the driveshaft.  I did put the transmission in Neutral, with the parking brake on and the rear driver wheel chalked.   I removed the bolts holding the shaft on.  The ends were "stuck".  I sprayed with penetration fluid.  I used some force, and mistakenly pulled the dust housing off the rear (very bad move on my part).  I finally had to use a chisel and tap it out.  The front came out with no issues.   No matter the videos I watched. the amount of force I applied or the penetration fluid I applied, the shaft was NOT separating.  After looking more at the rear of the shaft, I realized that by pulling off the dust cover, it was going to be an issue if I was able to get it back together.   I had to order a new driveshaft.  In the meantime, we drove the car for 2 weeks without a drive shaft with zero issues.  No check engine lights nor performance issues that I could tell.   I installed the new driveshaft, with the new center bushing and it's back to normal.  No whine at all.   At the end of the day, l spent a lot of time on my back and learned some lessons, but I think I still made out spending less than going to the dealer.   I hope this helps someone.

I'll call bullshit to a lot of misconceptions on AM radio and reception. I still have the 3/4 inch hole saw to bore the fender of those Fords, to install the antenna on Pre-Delivery Inspection (PDI). After drilling the hole, running the coax and plugging it into the radio, one had to trim or match the antenna to the radio. Length to a degree, was tuned by that adjustment.    The Shark Fin on top is for one's cellphone with a ferrite wrapped part for the Low Band (A/M). It has to be high and in the clear as the bands cellphones are a lot higher sometimes, in the Gigahertz rather than 1 Megahertz and lower. They are primarily line of sight (Cellphone) where the lower bands may be Worldwide!   Internal noise from various electronics in the vehicle causes the problem, not the noise floor! Poor to no filtering and lack of development of the radio is the problem. I have a Yaesu FT-950 (ham radio) that picks up the AM band just fine with a short piece of wire.
