I don't have any specific ideas why this problem is there, but just looking at the work list, I thought: 1) Are the coils/plugs connected properly and securely? May not be firing on all cylinders consistently. Would be my culprit of choice. 2) Did you replace the PCV valve when doing the plugs? The consensus on this forum is that you pretty much have to mangle the existing PCV valve to do the plug change. 3) If the trans was "flushed" and it had never been flushed before, may want to inspect the fluid to make sure it's clean/smells normal. (Not sure of fluid capacities for the Edge.) 4) Did you reduce the oil used for the oil change by the amount of Seafoam added?

Got the vehicle back today. They replaced the ignition cylinder. Works well so far.

"If I Remember Correctly"

That's one of the niggles I have mine in for. Will find out hopefully by Wed what if anything the dealership did to fix it, and report back.

Welcome to EdgeWorld I didn't even look at the Escape after finding out about the rear drum brakes (!). Hopefully Ford has made the brakes strong on the 2013 edge. They just love to undersize them ...

Glad it's resolved. I have heard this type of noise from failing compressor clutches, the repair usually being to replace the compressor

Could try Plastidip'ing it a la http://www.fordedgeforum.com/index.php?/topic/11010-plasti-dip-my-grille/
