Checked for the first time in 3 years and found at 21 psi.

If you've had tires replaced or wheels rotated at a dealership or tire centre, make sure that the emergency lug wrench still fits the lug nuts - most places use impact wrenches and it distorts the two-piece lug nuts such that the 21mm wrench no longer fits.

Welcome. Is there a specific query that you have for the forum?

Good idea to add your vehicle Model Year to your profile. https://www.google.com/search?source=hp&ei=JxlRXtbqJsy7tgW0kLco&q=https+%2F%2Fwww.fordedgeforum.com+transmission+drain+and+fill&oq=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.fordedgeforum.com+transmission+drain+and+&gs_l=psy-ab.1.0.33i160l2j33i299l2.822.9474..12508...0.0..0.242.3157.6j18j1......0....2j1..gws-wiz.......0i13.9_Bw-6Nk_Nk I did multiple drain and fills, .....didn't touch the lines to and from the cooler.

Mud Flaps - Guards for 15-17 Sport trim
1004ron replied to NoDTMF's topic in Accessories & Modifications
Just to be sure, did you get these: https://www.weathertech.com/ford/2016/edge/mudflap-no-drill-digitalfit/edge-sport/yes/ Looks like they now have the Sport version. -
BTW, did you notice the bold statement at the top of this subsection? Might get more responses if you ask a Moderator to move it to the appropriate section.

Low Oil Pressure warning keeps coming on!!!
1004ron replied to vtchopperdude's topic in EcoBoost Mod & Tech
As a process of elimination, I would do an oil change filling it with the spec quantity of oil, note where on the dipstick that is, use an OEM oil filter, then monitor it frequently from there. -

Low Oil Pressure warning keeps coming on!!!
1004ron replied to vtchopperdude's topic in EcoBoost Mod & Tech
Until proven with a pressure gauge, always trust the low oil pressure switch, and the fact that it happens when turning which would cause the oil flow towards the side of the sump possibly allowing the oil pump suction to draw air. If it happens immediately after an oil change where the correct amount of oil was used (not based on dip stick), then definitely get an oil pressure gauge temporarily installed to monitor the pressure, and if it still drops only on corners it would be time to pull the sumpp and inspect. -

Grinding noise only when all wheel drive is working
1004ron replied to Mhuntley73's topic in 2016 Edge & MKX
I also suggest that you take a closer look at the PTU. -
It's an 11mm and couldn't find one in my area, so I used a 7/16" is a very good snug fit. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004W80ESO/?coliid=I313I9IFF7QEMR&colid=7FQZRUTL8DOG&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it

True, absolutely nothing wrong with selecting products like this on personal preference. All I'm doing is drawing attention to the false performance enhancement claims by some of these manufacturers, which have no real technical or engineering basis. A very typical example is some, not all, that install "cold air" intakes which actually draw hot air from the engine compartment directly behind the hot radiator, and placebo has the driver 'feeling" an incredible power gain.
-
You're not really seeing any real world performance effect of an air filter with claims of a higher air flow rate capability because that will only come into play if your engine is drawing in air flow rates exceeding the rating of the stock OEM paper filter, which would only be heavy acceleration at Wide Open Throttle. The throttle response will not differ between filters while the nominal air flow is lower than the point where the filters present a flow restriction.

Just got an alert on the Ford app saying that there's a Sync 3 update for my Sport. Anyone know what this latest update is about? Only thing I see is Waze traffic alert support.
-
Something about that is puzzling me, and maybe you could explain it. With the good mileage numbers you're getting suggests that you never go anywhere near wide open throttle, so the intake air flow must be much lower than the point where the stock or performance filters would present a flow restriction/pressure drop. Is the objective better fuel economy, or to squeeze out a little more power at wide open throttle?

I mistakenly created the impression that I think our Ford Edge's are unique in their depreciation - all in this category are subject to that kind of depreciation. I haven't looked into that in too much detail as I don't plan on selling it for a very long time - it's my daily commute and looks and rides like it did when I bought it new 3 years and 52K miles ago. I'm fortunate to enjoy my ride everyday, .......no garage queen.

"To Keep Miles Down On The ST" - I understand your intentions, but for me I enjoy my long commute to and from work in my Sport and don't consider it viable to preserve a vehicle that is not an exotic that appreciates in value as it gets older. Check the KBB on the Edge models and I'm sure you'll be as shocked, and disappointed to see how rapidly they depreciate.
