Temps must've dropped a LOT in between. Good reminder to check tire pressures with season, at least.

Glad to hear it, best wishes!

This looks like it is headed towards a faulty HVAc module, IMHO. I would definitely try a) having the car battery checked, and pulling the fuse for a little while before reinstalling.

Wow, that looks SWEET!

First thought would the HVAC module (climate control module), or possibly the fuse/wiring. Have you ever changed the cabin filter? If it's clogged, that may be a simple fix.

Battery and/or starter would be my primary guesses. Even though you have push button start, the pathway may be similar to a keyed ignition switch, so wherever electrical contacts exist, those would be suspect.

The F150 2.7 EB is likely not the same as the Edge 2.7 EB engine, if the 3.5 EB variant is any indication. It will be stouter, with bigger turbos to boot.

Randall, you may need to cross some maintenance items off your list to help with better mileage, including spark plugs and electrically heated PCV valve, along with a cleaning of the MAF sensor and throttle body. A tankful or two of Techron concentrate plus wouldn't hurt either.

Welcome to the forum, 1004ron! Glad to see you in Ford's favor for your next vehicle For the longterm, I would still go with the 3.5 as a known quantity, especially if you plan to tow with it. Not that DI engines are bad, but turbo DI complicates the issue just a bit more, and IMHO, make an extended warranty necessary, though can decide on that till towards the end of the B2B warranty. The turbo DI engines do offer more grunt at the lower end if that is important to you. FWD or AWD is up to you, but given your situation, FWD should be fine, and will avoid any headaches associated with PTU/transfer case/differentials. Get a bit more gas mileage out of it as well. AWD is primarily a performance thing and definitely can help in bad weather, but in snow & ice, winter tires still rule. May not want to deal with the headaches of a panoramic roof, but if you do purchase, make sure you service the tracks regularly (clean & lubricate). Also consider purchasing the power liftgate option if you or another driver have a physical disability/frequently have arms full trying to open it. Good luck, keep us updated.

It IS possible to see those numbers if you have a) just filled up the tank and b] drive downslope from the gas station with little to no input on the gas pedal. I had occasion to do this once a couple of years back, and the dash showed 28+ mpg and climbing (driver + pass in vehicle). As to accuracy, I would not believe it, because the level of fuel reported changes depending on whether the vehicle is on level ground or not. Also, the dash mileage may meet hand calculated mileage, or it may be 1 mpg off. You will have to check for yourself, bottom line.

Hooray for cost saving measures! Legos seem to have a better fit these days.

Since a CEL came on, the system has detected a major malfunction. Read or get the code(s) read. Could be a fuel pump issue. Did you have the fuel tank replaced?

Welcome, Randall, post some pics of the "pumpkin". I hope it lasts even longer than one of the most famous ones on here!

Can the memory be upgraded on the non-nav units?

Welcome mschluns, sorry to hear about the PTU issue. How many miles on your Edge? You are out of warranty? Good time to R&R the PTU fluid, and establish a regular fluid change schedule. Check the old fluid first, there should not be anything other than fine metallic shavings from normal wear & tear in there. A lab test would be more definitive. There is no drain plug, so you would drain & fill from the same hole. A couple of people have also added the extended PTU vent, which is a kit available for the Taurus. The vent extends into the engine compartment, giving the fluid more room to expand, but also protecting the PTU from high water situations.

IDK how much a 2015 rear glass costs, but you might want to see if your insurance company covers it. Ford MIGHT if it proves out that it truly broke on its' own.

Has happened to me on occasion, when the forum didn't seem to be responding

2011-14 Edge (Gen 1.5) have wheels with a center bore of 63.4, 2007-2010 are 70.6. People have fitted late model Explorer Sport and Taurus SHO wheels on their Gen 1.5 vehicles.

maybe they would match the online price?

No delay on mine, so I'd say no, not the norm.

Perfectly normal. The owners manual tells you exactly what the system needs to retrain. The tool and/or tire store are fallbacks in case.

Bigger job than it sounds. If you do this, you are basically doing what it takes to do a spark plug/PCV valve change (highly recommended) + fuel system depressurization + pulling off fuel rail/injectors. I would replace all 6, because if 1 is gone, and that too on the cooler bank, the rest will follow in short order. But the work to get to them is not that bad, so you can defer if you really want to. NOTE: 2007 Edge PCV valves are electrically heated, so if you are wondering why the intake manifold isn't coming off easily, there is an electrical plug attached to the underside of the intake (next to the PCV valve) that you can only get to by first disconnecting everything topside from the intake and then lifting it up/tilting it. O Rings come with the new injectors, so no worries there. A dab of the same engine oil you put in the crankcase is fine for the O Rings. You can reuse the O Rings on the old injectors that you are not replacing, just clean them up first before oiling. Very mild torque on the intake manifold bolts. About 5 lb ft / 62 lb in. Def don't want to crack that plastic!

The fix is to replace the halfshaft bearing bracket.
