Not sure if its different on your model/year but if its the 3.5L with internal coolant pump then search the forum for the coolant change recommendations - later M/Y's may have addressed the issue?.

Heated and Cooled Seats
1004ron replied to Wedgeamatic's topic in Interior, A.C., Heat, Interior Trim
I'm not sure how they arrived at that recommendation, but my OBDLink MX+ BT works flawlessly with Windows FORScan and FORScanLite. I use the same adapter for my wife's BMW X5 and my BMW K1600. This adapter has very good reviews on a number of sites. OBDLink MX+ OBD2 Bluetooth Scanner for iPhone, Android, and Windows -

Fuel Gauge seems to go down quickly after fill up
1004ron replied to Camhr82's topic in 2017-2018 Edge & MKX
No that's not empty. The gauge and remaining miles should only be considered a rough estimate. -

1004ron replied to Camhr82's topic in 2017-2018 Edge & MKX
Did you run it empty before adding the 60L ? For the heated and cooled seats try a forum search. -
Welcome. You may have to take it to a reputable mechanic that actually diagnoses it and tells you what's wrong and explains why it needs a new engine, IF that what's needed. If its mobile you could get it scanned for fault codes at a place like AutoZone, or get yourself an OBDII dongle and the free app Forscan to read the codes. "or can anybody tell me why this is happening?" - with the limited information you've provided there's no way someone could tell you what's happening.

That is standard practice for all manufacturers - they won't touch a "grey import".

What happened to adaptive steering?
1004ron replied to Wubster100's topic in 2019-Current Edge & Nautilius
Thanks @omar302 Yes, I have the Adaptive Steering - I definitely like the feel / function but also something I could live without. -

Can't remember if my 2017 Sport has this - will check when I get home. -
If I relied on the oil life monitor I'd be changing the oil at around 10K miles, which is twice the mileage I change it at using good brand full synthetic. If I were you I'd change the oil when the oil life monitor is around 50%. Water under the bride but I take the attached photos at each oil change to keep with my Xcel spreadsheet. I don't know, but doubt that Forscan would have that history.

What scanner are you using?

@doubleg2582 What sensors did you buy?
-
Buying these sensors from Amazon or eBay is hit and miss - sometimes you get lucky. Never heard of multiple ways to set it to learn mode - could you describe the method you used with the hazard button.
-
I also prefer to trigger them with the car set to relearn rather than wait for them to auto-relearn. Ford TPMS Reset Tool Tire Pressure Sensor Training Activation Transmitter
-
Welcome. What sensors did you buy and from who/where? If the sensors are good the car will auto relearn the new sensor ID's. There is a procedure to put the vehicle inn relearn mode and use a cheap trigger devices to activate each sensor as needed.

At 114K miles I've changed plugs twice without changing coils - if one coil fails I'll look at changing them all.

Jack points and jack stand placements?
1004ron replied to Vortechtral's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
I use a puck style pinch weld protector on my floor jack positioning it about a foot rearward of the side mirror and lift until both wheels have sufficient clearance and then put the jack stands at the marked jacking points and lower the floor jack. I also have protectors on my jack stands. If I'm working on something like brakes I'll leave the jack in place for backup. -
It changed on the later models - not sure at what year they moved to the PTU.
-
FORscan. I doubt that this will resolve your reported intermittent issue - what you describe sounds like a bad connection. Scan for codes with FORScan.

Changing my belt at 100K, what else should I replace?
1004ron replied to TXHoss's topic in 2.0L EcoBoost
At around that mileage I did my serpentine belt, tensioner assy and idler. The friction damper in the tensioner wears and so does the bearing in both the tensioner and idler. -
Welcome. I haven't seen any reports on here with the problem you describe - hopefully someone else has and can offer advice.

Small Plastic Shield near front right fender liner - part number?
1004ron replied to 1004ron's topic in Exterior & Body
New part installed. The new part is a little stronger in the area that the old one broke. The repair to the old part held up well - very solid. New part is Made in Canada.
