Thanks Wub, just ordered me a quart from Amazon.
-
Would you happen to know of a 2022 St-Line's RDU also takes 75W?
-
Could be the AC system. I used a can of AC system cleaner after my drain tube became clogged. You just shoot it up the drain hose and let it sit for about 20 minutes before letting it drain out.

I've always just done a radiator drain and refill every 3rd oil change. Motorcraft yellow concentrate is pretty cheap and the 3.5's internal water pump bearing issue always frightened me. My 2011 SEL 3.5 just hit 160,000 with no issues.

I recently moved from a 2011 SEL to a 2022 ST-Line. I've only put about 2,000 miles on my 22 but can definitely tell that the 11-14 Edges were built better.

Jack points and jack stand placements?
fishx65 replied to Vortechtral's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
The jack points are marked on the pinch welds. I just throw the spare tire on and only jack up one corner at a time when I rotate the tires. -
Transmission Flush, or simple drain and fill?
fishx65 replied to slides's topic in All Wheel Drive (AWD)
Just did a drain and refill on my 30,000 mile 22 ST-Line 2.0. That little breather hose wasn't too bad but make sure to face the clamp tabs forward when ya put it back on to make it easier next time. I was lazy and just put back in what I drained out which was about 5 1/4 quarts. -
-
I added the hood insulation and it didn't do much to quiet the noisy 2.0. Just picked up the Engine cover which I'll be installing this evening.
-
I ain't no professional mechanic but I don't think a broken sway bar link was causing any of the system issues you were having.
-
Make sure ya don't purchase the factory tray that goes in the center console. The ones on Amazon for around $16.00 are deeper and way nicer.

I think I found an easier solution to this issue. I was able to slide a screw driver under the clip and rotate it a little to lift it up. I then slid a thick piece of felt under the end of the clip and dropped it back down. I purchased a pack of those round stick-on felt pads that go on the bottom of kitchen chair legs from the Dollar Tree. The one I used was the size of a nickel. The very annoying tick is completely gone!!!!:) I had to redo this felt pad solution because it eventually compressed too much and the rattle came back. I ended up using a round piece of plastic about the size and thickness of a nickel with felt stuck to both sides. Just sticking felt to both sides of an actual nickel would also work well.

I haven't looked yet but I'm guessing my 22 ST-Line with tow package is missing this shield. What is the reason to add this piece if it's missing???? I already added the missing hood insulation and ordered the engine cover with hopes of them dampening the noisy 2.0.
-
Picked up a 2022 ST-Line last week and the engine is crazy loud compared to my 2011 3.6. I ordered the hood insulation pad which I'm picking up this morning and thinking about the foam engine cover. Will these do a decent job at masking fuel pump and injector noise????

What have you done to/with your Edge/MKX today?
fishx65 replied to WWWPerfA_ZN0W's topic in Accessories & Modifications
Been on this great forum for a long time but finally decided to sell my 2011 and get something else. Well, that something else turned out to be a 22 ST-Line so I guess I'm not going anywhere:):) -
Kinda sad because I find the Edge the perfect sized SUV for my usage. Probably gonna look at a 4Runner next year.
-
The TPMS sensors on my 2011 finally started dying in December so I decided to go with factory Schraders from Amazon. I paid $30.00 each for the sensors and had Discount tire install them for $20.00 each. There was a 2023 date code on each sensor and I assume they were taken off wrecked vehicles. The originals lasted 13 years so I figured OEM was the way to go.

AC not working after purging AC drain
fishx65 replied to Deejaypenguin's topic in Interior, A.C., Heat, Interior Trim
I just went through this on my 2011. Had about a gallon stuck in there and the blower would shoot water around every time I turned left. I'm assuming all the water would eventually kill the blower motor but I unclogged the drain tube immediately after noticing the issue. The Edge's blower is really easy to access and replace. -
Wow, lucky she was still under warranty:):)
-
I've tried 3 purge valves from Autozone and they all sounded like machine guns.
-
Thanks 1004. Ran codes and it didn't show any for the purge valve but I just swapped in a new one anyway. It did show pending codes for bank 1 & 2 02 sensors (P2198 and P2196). Cleared the codes after installing the new purge valve and all seems fine now:)
