  1. The APIM is the aluminum part that attaches to the back of the 8" screen.

  2. That's the same as the one I bought in March 2017, so the salesman didn't lie, because it is in fact the "updated' version, updated late 2016 early 2017.
  3. Give the forum search a try, I'm sure you'll find a few threads explaining how to do this using Forscan.
  4. Have you tried a forum search?
  5. Where do you suspect the ferrous metal comes from that's collected by the magnet? Would the below review convince you to purchase?
  6. Yes, and the latest version must have come out prior to March 2017 when I bought mine, because its not the same as the one in that video.
  7. Picture link isn't working - cant you load it direct to the forum? Edit: I'd say that you don't have an updated version, because it probably doesn't exist - that is the same as the one I bought early 2017.
  8. If you post picture we may be able confirm.
  9. When you do get a chance to read the multitude of reports here you'll note that most folks don't have an issue with the original plug and continue re-using them. I don't see any benefit of a third party plug when my original plug is still working as good as new after 5 years and 73K miles with oil changes every 5K miles.
  10. Have you read the many reports from those that are still using the original drain plug without an issue after many miles and oil changes ?
  11. 2019 still under warranty, I would not drive it and call Ford to collect it. Reading the codes may shed more light on what's wrong - I got the same indication when I change my PTU oil and forgot to reconnect the temperature sensor, so its the "catch all" notice.
  12. Without the pictures you promised, we'll go with the dealer blowing smoke up your rear end. Maybe there isn't an updated version.
  13. You need to Google how to find a parasitic drain, or take it to an Auto-Elec shop, correct that, then get it to a place like Autozone to do a battery test which also includes a test of the charging system. A lead acid battery will be destroyed by just a single deep discharge event, and that the reason why you've needed two in ten months.
  14. Have you tried a search using the part number in this thread?
  15. Keen to see the pictures, but can confirm that mine bought in 2017 does not attach to the back seat headrests.
  16. There's a few companies that you could use.

  17. Post a pick so that we can see what's "updated". I used mine for a week or two, and its been collecting dust for 5 years since - its a PIA and the dark rear windows make it impossible to see anything stored in the cargo area. I'd sell mine for 25% of the cost and buyer pays shipping - Sold on Craigslist.
  18. I'd say the answer is Yes, seeing as my 2017 Sport dome lights work. What MY is yours? Please add location and MY to your profile signature - Settings - Ford Edge Forum
  19. Maybe the bent wheel trashed the suspension bushes, and its starting fresh in the new location. A few things are puzzling me - I'd know if I had a curb impact severe enough to bend a wheel, and would get it checked ASAP - a bent wheel will most certainly cause vibration, and a rumble which I'd hear, feel, and investigate. Warranty isn't going to cover a bent wheel.
  20. In that case, it was already at its end of life, not having the oil replaced at a reasonable mileage interval.
  21. What's the mileage, and how frequently was the PTU oil changed?
  22. I believe your model doesn't have a PTU drain, so they couldn't have drained it - they would have "extracted" the oil, if they did anything with it. If sludge was found they may attempt to flush it with ATF, but it shouldn't run more than a few miles before filling with the correct oil.
  23. Your owners manual should show that, and if you don't have one do a Google search for a PDF version. It wouldn't take long to damage the PTU with the wrong fluid. Of course they'll respond that its a typo, in which case I'd demand that they prove it to me by extracting the fluid for me to inspect, and then of course show me the fluid going back in. Also, it needs to be recorded on Ford's records linked to your VIN.
  24. Why would they use ATF in the PTU which calls for gear oil 75W140 ?
