Welcome. Your Edge is very similar to mine in being a 2016 Sport model purchased new in 2018 and has nearly 70k KM now. Only mine is in Kona Blue color.

If you're not getting OEM, I'd suggest Bilstein. I don't recall anyone here having tried BC on an Edge. Also, if the dealer is quoting you high prices, buy them online from the US and have them shipped over. Edit: Reading your introductory post, doesn't your Edge have an extended warranty? ESP? I was under the impression all GCC Ford vehicles from those years had them. If so, the shocks should be covered for 5 years or 100k KM.

In the cooling component location for the 2.7L, hot market AWD, item#31 (named transmission cooler) looks similar to the Transmission fluid "warmer". Wonder if it's the same item but called different. Engine Cooling - Component Location 27l.pdf

Some more photos: Bonus photo of the Trans cooler added for Hot Market AWD 2016 Edges (at least on my Edge):

Update2. Dealer replaced the evaporator. It is heartful to see the dash fully removed and knowing it probably won't return to the way it was. Got a few pictures. The drain location is right in the middle, seems to drain over the insulation that is above the PTU/Exhaust. Old Evaporator:

Inspired by OP's post, I got this sunshade from Amazon that has several reviews from Edge owners. I can confirm it fits very well. Can't get better covering than this. Material is a bit thicker than usual sunshade covers, feels close to the type of material used in swimming inflatables.

To me it looks like normal water moisture that has dried up on a dirty/dusty engine.

Do you have HID lights? If yes, could be the balasts. Better check for codes using ForScan to get the BCM codes, might give a better indication.

That TSB is for the older generation Edge. There is a newer one for 2015+ models (TSB 18-2057 - link). To test if this is really you issue, run the A/C in outside air mode (recirculate off).

So, had the issue happen again a few days ago. This time I was remote starting while I was looking at the vehicle, the hazards flashed once (for the lock button press) then nothing. The keypad entry worked, same as before. So I tryed tapping on the relays/fuse boxes in the Engine compartment and under the dash, nothing happened. Also, tried to connect using ForScan. the strange thing is that it connected to the "PCM", but not to the Body Control Module. Normally, with the ignition off it is the other way around. So now I am thinking it is from the Body Control module. Screenshots attached. Will see how this goes. Of course, as usual, quick disconnect/reconnect of the battery and the car started up fine.

Replaced the Key Fobs battery. Got a "Key Battery Low" message. Battery lasted just over 3 years. This is for the 2019 style keyfob I added to my 2016 Edge (link).

Update. Cooling performance was reduced, so dealer eventually diagnosed it as a leaking evaporator. Currently at the dealer of replacement. So the smell was probably of the leaking A/C gas. Once they remove the evaporator, and before re-assembly, I plan to take a look where the drain hole is.

When the issue happens, try to disconnect the vehicle's battery for a few seconds and re-connect it. See if this helps reset the electronice.

I know this is an old thread, but read a similar finding on the Fusion Sport forums (2.7 EcoBoost - link) and they refer to it as a dyno plug, unplugging it shuts the traction and stability control off.

As per the service manual for the 2015 model, first year for Gen2, there are differences in the cooling systems for vehicles equipped with the tow package. So better cooling is part of the reason why the factory tow package allows for more towing capacity.

I would use epoxy/glue. Just trying as much as possible to keep the glue on all the broken plastic screw areas. It has to be permanent as it was not supposed to be detached that way.

I would use the General model specific (Gen I or Gen II) or Engine (2.0, 2.7, 3.5 or 3.7) since transmission issues are usually grouped that way. But a specific sub category as suggested would be useful. In any case, I personally use the "unread" view, so I would see new posts from all forums regardless of sub categories.

Congratulations on your new ride and welcome to the forums.

For the 3.5 & 2.7 V6 Engines, the dipstick is under/part of the fill cap.

US model Edges up to 2015 used SD Cards for Navigation data. Those had MyFord Touch systems (Sync 2).

Do you mean when put in Sport mode without using the paddles (if equipped)? If yes, then that is supposedly normal as the highest ratio is not used in "Sport" mode. However, if you have paddle shifters, try to upshift while in "7" and it should manually upshift. The issue of Ford eliminating one gear is related to the ST model with the V6 Ecoboost 2.7L. That transmission is completely different than the one used in other models. On another note, this is the first time someone mentions that Sport mode now shows the current gear shift. It has long been requested, but was not implemented. Previously, on the Edge it would only show the current gear if in manual shift mode.

If I were you, I'd try to read the error codes while the problem is still present, before turning off the vehicle. More specifically, using ForScan. I remember before in some older models where the throttle body would fail and caused issues including getting into limp mode, but trouble codes would get erased once the vehicle is turned off and restarted.

Yes.

A picture will help better identify what it is.
