  1. For the specific viscosity/weight of the oil in each part consult your owner's manual, then select a reputable brand such as AMSOIL, Redline, ....... Please add your Model & Year to your profile signature - Settings - Ford Edge Forum
  2. The camshaft position sensors are very rudimentary/robust instruments with extremely low failure rate, so I doubt that they had anything to do with the operating issues you describe. The codes you listed are related to the Catalytic Converters and that should be the starting point for diagnostics. The CAT's can last very long unless there's factors such as oil burning or excess fuel. If the CAT's are getting blocked they'll be restricting exhaust gas flow and the symptoms will be worse when going up a hill etc. As a test you could pull the upstream O2 sensors and assess the exhaust pressure at that point with the engine running and see if any of the symptoms clear. Best not to use that person for diagnostic advice going forward.
  3. Why are you wanting to change the camshaft position sensors?
  4. @Larry Bacon other locations on the internet suggest its a fairly common issue. https://www.fordescape.org/threads/got-an-error-message-awd-fault-service-required-on-my-2020-ford-escape.122366/page-2?nested_view=1
  5. Follow the directions to the post in this thread.
  6. Like all insurance, it's a gamble. If it was for the SEL with the internal coolant pump, it might be worth that insurance. Is it a service plan or an extended warranty plan? If I was considering this type of thing I'd stay well clear of the 3rd party ones and stick with Ford plans.
  7. I don't fully understand what the issue is. If the USB wasn't formatted to FAT the content/update would not have loaded in the vehicle. You could copy the content to a folder on your computer, correctly format the USB and return the files to the USB and then use it to update the vehicle.
  8. Welcome, I don't recall seeing any typical coolant loss issues with the 2.7L I would pull the spark plugs and look for signs like a very clean one. Also, Autozone rent out the equipment to sniff for combustion gases in the coolant reservoir with the engine running, and if none of that reveals anything then a compression and leak-down test.
  9. What oil change interval have you been using? What specific oil and oil filter do you use? Another potential cause for oil loss is the PCV valve. What Model do you have? - please add your Model and Year to your profile signature - https://www.fordedgeforum.com/settings/signature/
