    I'm looking for this as well. I looked at 'snmjim' posts but it appears to be about parts, not the procedure. I don't mind digging in, but I'd prefer to know what I'm getting into first.

     

    Is there a more detailed explanation or video on changing these spark plugs on a '17 Edge 2.7? I have found many videos on line, but none (yet) on this particular engine and model.

     

    Thanks

     

    If you need more information than what can be found in the post linked (six above your post), then it might be best to explain what part of the process you need more info on.

    I don't want to overfill it bc I'm afraid of aeration.

     

    I only was able to get about 10oz out of my daughters `19 Titanium 2.0L. I put about 14oz of Amsoil 75W-90 Extreme back in but I'm thinking of adding an additional 8ozs. (she purchased new and the PTU oil has never been changes)

     

    Can't overfill if its trickling out the fill hole.

     

    Is that a typo? - shouldn't it be 75w140 or does the 2019 use 75W90?

    I got the 12.8ounces off the Amsoil website. My owners manual says 11.8 fl. oz. (2016 Edge Sport 2.7L)

    I put in the same amount that came out.

    How much did you put in?

     

    Safest is to fill until it trickles out the fill hole.

     

    There's numerous reports of errors in the listed quantity.

    Yep, better to overfill PTU, than underfill; that gearoil gets cooked so the more you can fit into that gearbox the better.

    After drilling\tapping & installing a Fumoto DrainValve in the PTU bottom & a fill hose on the PTU top vent barb with a fill can under the hood,

    now change the 75w140 AmsOil  every 6mths along with routine engine oil changes. Hopefully makes it last as long as the rest of the car.

     

    Not easy to overfill if the if the fill hole is open.

  5. RyanA97  what's the service history?

     

    No, it's not normal.

     

    Could be poor maintenance resulting in sludge which causes issues with the hydraulic lifters.

    That is how I raised and leveled the seats in my wife's Mustang, and expect it should  work for the Edge.

     

    Edit: keep in mind that you need two holes - one for the bolt and another for the dowel pin, so you'll need to drill a hole in the ones above in the Amazon link.

  7. On my 2017 Sport the original P-Zero's lasted 50K miles, and after that the Atturo lasted 31K miles.

     

    As the Atturo approached the wear bars, they were very bad on wet roads.

     

    My third set of tires just recently installed are Bridgestone Alenza AS Ultra 265 /40 R21 105V XL BSW  and so far very happy with them - quiet and superb grip in the wet, and expect they'll be good in the snow.
