    I put it in my Profile not sure why it doesn't show.

     

    2015 Ford Edge Titanium 

    Its been an issue with this forum for a few years with the owners showing no interest in correcting it, and that's why it was requested that you add that detail to your signature - https://www.fordedgeforum.com/settings/signature/

     

     

  2. When I changed spark plugs on my wife's 3.7L Mustang I found oil in the intake - I replaced the PCV valve and installed a catch-can and no longer get oil in the intake.

     

    I doubt that the engine braking would cause this.

    Probably not. I had a windshield leak     after replacment, glass company applied extra sealant where needed. Five minute job.

     

    Did you have to pay for the windshield? Can you share the price? (Curious about what a modern windshield costs now).

    I stopped in at their shop on Friday and the identified an error made by the installation tech - they confirmed that the windshield will be removed and didn't do so on Friday because they didn't have stock of mine - the senior tech says that they usually install a complete new one because during removal it often breaks and the time to clean the sealant off the old one also makes it cost effective to use a new one.

  4. I'm not an expert on this but believe that it is possible to add NAV but it would need a new APIM and GPS antenna - this is what I did on my wife's 2015 Mustang.

     

    I can PM you the contact for the person that sold me all the Ford hardware needed, all configured.

     

    On my 2017 Edge Sport I no longer use the in dash NAV after getting a wireless Carplay device - Waze is all I use for navigation.

  5. I would start by reading the stored error codes using Forscan or other device that's know to have the capabilities with Ford.

     

    After that I'd use the scanner monitor the O2 sensors paying particular attention to when the engine is warmed and the A/F ratio switches from Open Loop to Closed Loop.

  6. See what I was getting at with regards the scanner?

     

    I would start by checking out the transmission selector and linkages, and the connector to the transmission range switch - if that all checks out good then get a wiring diagram and confirm the range switch is giving the correct output at its connector when selecting each gear position.

     

    My model had a recall due to issues with the synthetic bush connecting the cable to the transmission range lever - wonder if that's good on yours.

     

    Maybe @Haz  could help with the wiring diagram.

  7. Safelite replaced my windshield today and did a great job.

     

    The only trim removed was the plastic cover at the bottom edge of the windshield.

     

    The spec label on the lower right corner is exactly the same as the original windshield.

     

    They took it for a 10 minute drive with their calibration device - I never use the lane guidance but tried it on the drive home and it works as it always has.

    Or maybe a BlueDriver huh…so says Scotty Kilmer and Chris Fix!

    I wouldn't be taking any advice from that Scotty fool.

     

    The BlueDriver is a good OBD2 adapter, so that adapter with ForescanLite  (Free) will reliably read the codes, which will most certainly be there based on the symptoms you describe.

  9. I doubt that kerosene would do much for the sludge build-up on the oil pump suction strainer and the screens on the VVT control valves if the engine isn't run.

     

    Most folks are very wary of using an engine flushing product, but I think when an engine has been allowed to sludge up like this it may be the only option - if you do this plan to do a good few short interval oil & filter changes.

  10. PTU drain plug drill and tap - Page 10 - All Wheel Drive (AWD) - Ford Edge Forum

     

    Any quality fluid that meets or exceeds the specs in your owners manual is suitable for your Engine, Transmission, RDU (Diff) and PTU.

     

    I use Ford fluid for the Trans, Mobil 1 for the Engine, and Amsoil for the PTU and RDU.
