You should still have the bumper to bumper 36K mile warranty, and if so, let Ford fix it.

Just stick with the oil you're using, or any other good name brand full synthetic of the correct grade specified in your owners manual. Not sure how long you've been around automotive forums, but "oil threads" are in abundance, and its typically the same as "how long is a piece of string?"

@bhamraS97 I wouldn't take the covers off - it offers protection to things like the brake and fuel lines. I applied the foam washers and new fasteners as per the Tech Bulletin and as I commented in this thread it didn't silence it for long. I recently used zip ties and the buckle of the ties keeps the plastic posts cocked to one side and I believe that's going to keep quiet for longer.

Yes I did - try a forum search for the threads containing that info. https://www.fordedgeforum.com/search/?q=forscan battery size https://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/30280-group-65-battery-in-2nd-gen-possible/?tab=comments#comment-222764

The ones I received in Feb 2021 are Gates, so surprised if they sent something different to you at around the same time. See the photos I posted in this thread.

Mine is odor free and climate change, freezing temps, have had no impact on that. I would have continued use of mine even if it meant living with the odor.

Ford does not have front or rear mudflaps for the Sport, and the Ford front mudflaps I used were not a good fit as can be seen in the above photo. The front and rear set bought on Amazon are a perfect fit. Amazon.com: A-Premium Mud Flaps Splash Guards Compatible with Ford Edge 2017-2020 Front and Rear Only Fit Sport Model 4-PC : Automotive

Yes. 2013 FORD EDGE 3.5L V6 Spark Plug | RockAuto As WWWPerfA_ZN0W mentioned, the life span of the original Iridium plugs is also very good.

I'd have to do more searching, but I recall reading that there's certain restrictions on programming the IPC to prevent manipulation of the odometer, such as only a new IPC can be programmed.

I use these: Ruthenium HX™ Spark Plugs - NGK Spark Plugs

In the five years of ownership I've only had the stability control kick in once when on a sweeping bend that had a patch of ice. It kept me on the road, and took a good few miles for me to catch my breath. The ABS I've had kick in often.

My 2017 has the steering heater icon on the home screen. I'd expect your M/Y would have the same.

Perblue - "it induces a voltage of 150 to 350 volts" - isn't there a zero missing? Edit/correction: that would be the induced voltage on the primary.

Not having DIY skills is nothing to be ashamed of, but you should really consider paying a more reputable independent service shop, or the Ford Dealership. This unqualified places could have cost you a new engine.

What code reader are you using? I ask because I had a generic cheap OBDII device and it showed no codes when I had and evap valve problem, then when I got a more expensive OBDLink MX+ it revealed the code.

Very poor diagnostics taking so long to find a bent wheel - I wouldn't use any of them again. I also found it weird, and still do. Are you the only driver of this vehicle? - any novice drivers that hit a curb? The wheel needs a significant impact to bend.

I cant comment because I haven't seen the images - if you post them direct to the forum I'd take a look.

With your confirmation that its a Cleveland engine makes it more likely your engine has the coolant intrusion. At least now you are well informed prior contacting Ford - use all the info on hand and stress to them that its a Latent defect and you expect an engine replacement at no cost to you. A work associate/friend is the second owner of one of these, and Ford would not commit to any assistance until they'd opened the engine to diagnose, so he didn't want to risk them declining so he bought a new engine from Ford and had an independent shop install. You didn't respond to the previous question if you had an extended warranty - anyway, the extended warranty has first amount payable by you, which you should reject in this case.

With the engine off and cooling down, the coolant which is still under some pressure makes its way into the combustion chambers, and then when its started takes some time to displace that coolant - this theory could explain what you describe, but that is speculation, which is also what the couple of mechanics were doing. Before spending money on spark plugs or coils, I'd follow WWWPerfA_ZN0W advice to check your engines place of manufacture - also pulling all plugs and visually inspecting them will also reveal if there's coolant intrusion.

Wonder if Zamboni got the damage repaired and the insurance covered it?

I suggest that you do a search for an independent service shop in your area that has good online reviews, or take it to a dealership. On start up, in Park, and standing still you say its loud - have someone start it while you listen to the engine with the hood open - post a video clip of the noise and vibration. Is it the engine vibrating, or the whole vehicle?

What mechanic is this, qualified, independent service shop, dealership, ......? Your description isn't clear, so doubt anyone here will be able to diagnose it.
