Replaced the purge valve.

Doesn’t always cause issues. Mine was just the code.

. Turn off what? It tells you when you read lamps are on. No need to turn it off.

Every auto parts store has coolant testers. $3 and up. https://www.autozone.com/heating-and-cooling/antifreeze-coolant-tester?filterByKeyWord=antifreeze&fromString=search&isIgnoreVehicle=false

I wouldn’t recommend it. Most ports do power off at some point. Should be just as easy to connect directly to the battery

Test it. If it’s diluted too much it will show up.

I agree, I was just adding clarification for others.

Note they switched from the 6 speed power shift to the 8F tranny with the 2019 refresh in Euro models.

. Get a Solar BA-7 or newer one to test it.

If it sits for more than a week get a battery tender. Otherwise get a ctek charger/conditioner and throw it on there a couple times a month.

Nope. North America only. Anything over 2.0L in Europe gets taxed heavily.

In the states the Sport comes with a 2.7L twin turbo engine and sport suspension. ST-Line is only the appearance package.

It has a sensor because that's how it knows to shut down the AWD when it overheats. But it doesn't show you the temp or tell you that the fluid needs to be changed. If they know how long it needs to stay over temp or at what temp the fluid breaks down then they could easily notify the driver that it needs to be changed.

when they turned the 3.5L sideways there wasn’t enough room for the water pump externally in smaller vehicles like the edge without major super expensive modifications to multiple vehicles. They didn’t just forget that it could be a problem. At the time, water pump failures were pretty rare. In hindsight it looks like a terrible decision but like most things it made sense at the time. As for the PTU fluid - it is lifetime provided it doesn’t get overheated. Once it gets overheated it starts to fail. It appears they didn’t anticipate whatever causes the overheating. It is fair to blame them for not making corrections fast enough. However, simply adding a fluid change recommendation of 50k miles wouldn’t necessarily help. If the fluid overheats at 51K it will probably fail before 100K. The fluid doesn’t wear out unless it overheats. What they should have done is extend the warranty on both the PTUs and water pump to 100K miles. But of course that costs money so it becomes a business decision.

Several cases but still a small percentage of vehicles and some have gone 150k or longer with no problems. I heard they suspected a build up of tolerances within the gears that caused more heat than expected in some units and operating scenarios. I have yet to see an engine failure caused by a motorcraft filter or oil.

Just let it sit 8-10 hours.

Your mini spare has a 21” wheel? That would certainly solve the caliper clearance issue.

There is no mini spare with the performance brake package. My guess is it won’t clear the rotors.

Does the passenger lock button work? If so it’s probably the switch. If not How old is your battery? Batteries only last 3-4 years typically and a weak battery can seem to work fine but cause strange problems. If it’s not the battery then try disconnecting the negative battery terminal for a few minutes.

Should be under vehicle settings -> remote start on the left hand menu.

Dates are the same for edge and nautilus. Job 1 1/25/2021.

How do you know it’s not the battery? How old is it?

The dealer has to turn it off or you might be able to do it with Forscan.

This was already answered for you on blueovalforums and I’m pretty sure the 2021 production dates are also posted here. Job 1 for the 2021 edge and nautilus are 1/25. Nobody has said anything about it being cancelled for 2021 or 2022.
