Thanks for the reply. I pulled off the Dorman unit and tested it with a 12v battery and it appears to open correctly as well as hold suction. As far as the under vehicle cannister, the only thing I found was forward of the muffler that has some hoses going to it and an electrical connector. It mounts right up against the floorpan just forward of the muffler.

2019 Edge ST with 105k miles Recently the check engine light came on and my scanner revealed the two error codes. Since the purge valve solenoid is right on top of the engine, I thought I would replace this first. Dorman 994-073 Vapor Canister Purge Valve I tried clearing the codes but my cheap scanner won't allow me to do that, so I was hoping the codes would clear themselves, assuming the purge valve is now working. I have also cleaned and inspected the fuel filler area, but it appeared very clean and tight. I would also like to inspect/replace the charcoal canister but I cannot find it's location. If anyone could tell me, I would be most appreciative. Thank You!! RPGR90s

2019 Edge ST with 105k miles. Original owner. I installed a set of GoodYear Assurance A/S tires about 50k miles ago and they have been fine. Normal wear and they're almost due for replacement. About a year ago I noticed the car wanting to pull slightly to the right and they steering wheel being off-center to the left. Tire pressure normal (35psi) at all four corners Alignment checked Then I decided to just swap the two front tires from side to side and the result was that the car now track normally and the steering wheel is centered again. My theory is that the belts on the right front tire were wearing differently and causing the tire to drift to the right. My basis is that my father was an engineer at Uniroyal Tire for 40 years and he often talked about what happens inside a tire, even when the tread appears fine. So I'll be replacing the tires this Friday with a new set. Just wanted to pass this along in case anyone else is having a similar issue. RPGR90s

If I recall, the engine was already at max temperature and I did have the heat set to Max. Thank You!

I have a question. The other day I wanted to do a coolant flush on my 2019 ST. The car was purchased now and currently has 103k miles. It's been a perfectly flawless vehicle. At the 1st coolant service, I had the Ford dealer flush and re-fill. They swapped out the original orange colored coolant for a green colored coolant. Now I see that the latest Ford coolant is yellow colored, so that's what I purchased. I found the drain (boy what a fun job it is getting access to THAT!!) and drained the old coolant. I then added a coolant flush with distilled water and let the car come up to temperature. I ran this for the specified interval (10 minutes) and drained again. The liquid coming out was mostly clear so I filled the tank with the new, yellow colored coolant and brought the engine back up to temperature. I let the car cool down over-nite and in the morning the tank was a bit low, so I topped it off. But what caught my eye was the coolant reverted back to a solid green color. Did I miss a step in my probess and possibly not get all the old coolant out? Thanks for any advice or direction. RPG

My apologies. I forgot that I had posted this same question last fall. RPGR90s

2019 ST with 100,000 miles. The car has been pretty much trouble free until recently when I went to open the sunshade. it sounded like it was ripping itself apart and it stayed open all winter. I took it to the local Ford dealer (Stillwell Ford in Hillsdale, MI) and was quoted over $3,000.00. If anyone knows of a place in southern MI or even metro Detroit (not a dealer) that could repair this, I would sure appreciate it. Thanks in advance, RPGR90s

I am the original owner of my 2019 Edge ST and it just turned 100,000 miles today. I know I'm due for spark plugs, but wanted to ask about the serpentine belt(s) and pulleys. Is there one main serpentine belt for everything, or are there two, with one belt just spinning the AC Compressor? The motor is currently very, very quiet, but I'm thinking about replacing the belt tensioner pulley and idler pulley. I assume there are just two pulleys with one being the tensioner? If there are two belts, is there a separate belt tensioner for the AC serpentine belt? Is there anything else that I'm missing at the 100k interval? This car has been absolutely trouble-free with only one return to the dealer to replace a USB port that stopped working. No leaks, no oil burning, everything still works (well, except the sunroof shade broke last summer ). Probably the best vehicle I've owned. Thanks very much for your assistance. Regards, Rick

Just recently, I went to open the shade for my sunroof (2019 Edge ST) and near the end of travel, it sounded like gears stripping, etc. I just took it in to the local Ford dealer (Stillwell Ford in Hillsdale, MI) and they gave me an estimate of $1800 (OUCH!) I declined obviously, so I wanted to ask if that is a known issue and maybe get pointed to some repair it yourself videos. I am capable, having been a mechanic/engineer for over fifty years. Thanks very much. (Love the car, lament that I got the panaorama roof) RPG

Thank You all very much. I changed the old fluid (93k) and it came out nasty black. I'm embarrassed that I did not investigate further. I bought the car new and asked the service manager about the transmission, and he said, "its filled for life". My fault for not researching. BUT, it definitely shifts better now. Maybe a placebo effect, but I feel better having done it.

I have a 2019 ST with 93k miles. I thought the auto trans had a dipstick so I removed the air box. All I see is a rubber sort of clamp that I would expect to be where the dipstick is. I removed it and it definitely gives access to the inside of the tranny. So I grabbed a very long thin screwdriver, inserted it, but didn't see any evidence of fluid. I know it has fluid as it runs and shifts fine, so I have a couple of questions. Is there a way to check the fluid level? Is there a fluid change interval? Is there a drain plug? What is the quantity after a fluid change? What is the recommended fluid and amount? Thanks very much!!!!

Original owner of my 2019 ST with the Panoramic Roof. 93k. Yesterday I went to open the shade and it sounded like glass was breaking. It moved about 1/2 way open until I pressed the button to stop it. It appears the shade ripped in the corner and became detached from whatever mechanism that drives it. Is this repair beyond a regular mechanic like myself? Are there any online videos that might help? Or should I just make an appt. with the local dealer? Thanks so much!

I have a '19 Edge ST and I recently pulled out the two body plugs (on the rocker panels when you open the rear door) to an inspection. They broke/split when I removed them so I'm looking for replacements and I can't seem to locate a diagram or the correct part. Any help would be appreciated.

I have a 2019 Edge ST AWD with 86k. Original owner. I am starting to notice an unusual noise from the right rear (as best as I can estimate) when making right hand turns from a dead stop. It's very subtle but noticeable, like a loose shock or something. I replaced both rear shocks with Bilstein's but the problem was happening before the shock replacement. And it only happens when starting off in a right hand turn. Like at an intersection where you stop and then turn right. I'm just trying to figure out what it might be so I can tackle it before it's a huge issue. Thanks so much.

Sorry for the late reply. The noise makes sense now. Everything else is fine, no pulsing or other issues, so I'll just live with it.
