My 2017 Sport has a slight whine but haven't identified the source and my PTU and RDU fluids look good. I haven't heard of widespread failures of the RDU but Cerberus below report is one.

A very common misconception "Sensor Code = Sensor Failed" - the sensor code is only a starting point in the diagnostic process, and in this case its indicating that the camshaft positions do not correlate with the crankshaft position which is commonly due to the Variable Valve Timing control valve problems. Most often occurs due to poor oil change intervals causing fouling of the VVT control valves - some got lucky and had success cleaning the fine mesh screens on these valves. What's the mileage? What's the oil change interval? What oil do you use? What oil filter do you use? Do you get oil changes done at quick lube places?

I see the trend with tire fitment shops offering bumper to bumper service, and just like quick lube places, I would steer well clear of them - they know only enough about the other parts of a car to be dangerous. From what you described of the current symptoms I'd be very surprised if there's no stored fault codes and suspect the code scanner is not capable - I personally only use Forscan after learning the deficiencies of other scanners.

What shop is that? I ask because your comments here suggest it's highly incompetent and add to that ineptitude, they obviously didn't even do a test drive. You're going to need a shop that has the required diagnostic tools and skills - it could be a multitude of things like faulty wheel speed sensor, ........... If its mobile you could take it to Autozone and have them scan it for fault codes, but a professional would be the best option.

At a 170K miles and never had the PTU fluid changed, I'd be leaning towards that being the source of the noise. It's probably not recoverable but would do a fluid change on it first - the fluid, if there's any left, will give you a good indication of the PTU's condition. I expect yours doesn't have a drain plug so will need an oil extractor - when you replace it be sure to add a drain plug - a search of the forum will provide details on how that's done.

With that said, have you been changing fluids on the PTU? - if so, what interval and what oil?

I'm surprised that the Auto Stop Start can't be disabled with Forscan - soon after we bought a BMW X5 for my wife I used Bimmercode ($50 app) to code the ASS default to OFF. Edit: If it can be done on the F150 it should be possible on the Edge.

I use a pinch weld protector on my floor jack that I made from an ice hockey puck just rearward of the front jacking point, positioned so that it will lift that side up evenly, then place two jack stands with their pinch weld protectors at the two jacking points, move to the other side and do the same.

Welcome. Have you tried the suggestion @enigma-2 posted directly above yours?

There's a few scanners available that can do the ABS bleed function - a bi-directional tool will cost around $300 to $600, but you could see about loaning one from Autozone. Here's one example: https://www.amazon.com/TOPDON-ArtiDiag-Bidirectional-OE-Level-Diagnostic/dp/B0BNKHCXVC/ref=sr_1_3?crid=2PHKOECMCCH78&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.wtD8hkhY1zyiBdGmJRbfWjEjCH4q7MHceyOEiO56rGJApl1bFBaxsz79fm2I9IUISsTGw6mPmb6Jveb7pOE5Pi3GP7zq6-tR1NLpx0HfU_Y8HjHJvGtzyBz0nDe4ISsR3hzI0V9wum3DYDKcmf_B28DYBGslfkBOz4f3PDAPwMGiFcCv3yg1gZ5EPhoRdYB0Ftv3bCB6fANxdauykrNO-GIi-VeUXy0BjXznP7qRYB59ECPszBtM0wADmi7QWA0UYvEok4F9GXf3O6QvyaGaTVjPWLvJVyiACQWQE6gt6SA.OvtyCSlRA92qhehXImnwpw5g52bhqjwreXHN0b9drtM&dib_tag=se&keywords=topdon+topscan+pro&qid=1720746051&sprefix=topdon+%2Caps%2C156&sr=8-3 https://www.topdon.com/products/ArtiDiag-Pro

I don't think that's practical for expelling air from the system.

Welcome. The only thing that I can see that you didn't do was the bleed procedure that includes activation of the ABS pump/system.

I'm sure @Haz will be able to confirm what service manual is available from Ford for your UK Model/Year. The Ford service manuals are very good, but pricey - @Haz frequently posts excerpts from these manuals.

Welcome. Many reports on this forum of the unreliability of the remanufactured alternators, leaving the owners with no option but a new OEM replacement. If you can get the car to Autozone have them test the alternator and battery - they don't charge for this.

This is the one that I have: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07Z67MMGC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 There's always the option to get it tested free of charge at Autozone - either way, it's way better than guessing.
