Welcome to the forum. Please let us see some pics of your new Edge.

That film treatment sounds interesting. It's not something I've heard of before. Does it change the external appearance at all?

My Edge just has this rubber thingy that sits in there:

No idea but on a 20 hour drive my gauge said 32mpg. My receipts and mileage tracking calculated 38mpg. You can think I'm wrong but that's how mine is. Mine is an early model 2019, maybe they fixed it on later ones. Just realized your in Europe/UK also, I'm in Canada totally different market so that's a difference too and more likely to be set appropriately since most made for the North American market head to the US. Made me do a double take with the mileage you showed. That diesel really gets good mileage.

Are the diesel models not available in North America then?

Try tracking your mileage, I bet it comes out closer to US mpg when compared to the gauges. They just don't specify that it is in US on the setting. One day I will correct it.

That's interesting. But if that's the case why would the owner's manual be quoting the fuel consumption figures in Imperial MPG? 

There is a massive difference between Imperial mpg and US mpg.

With ForScan, I recall there is a setting in IPC to use imperial gallons. Also, usually such settings change with the country setting of the IPC, again using ForScan. Things that change with country for example, in US it says "Door Ajar" instead of "Door Open", "Hood Ajar" instead of "Bonnet Open".

I'm pretty certain my Edge's settings are for Imperial gallons. I've not seen anything on the menu to select US gallons, the only other option being litres.

Our window stickers show both since a lot are used to mpg still and you can set either on the gauges. You would just think if they advertise the Canadian mpg that's what the gauges would use, but nope.

And I thought we were the odd ones here in the UK still officially using miles, mph and mpg but selling fuel in litres!

That's ridiculous isn't it.....and doesn't Canada use kilometres rather than miles anyway?

Welcome.

It's always nice to see others from the UK on here.

Where are you and your new Edge....and do you have any pics of it to share with us?

 Is there really any reason to put the cover back on? I know it definitely looks better, but is it bad to keep it off?

Gone are the days when I use to work on my own car!

Thankfully cars are so much more reliable now compared to the 70s and 80s.

Thanks!

 

Can't seem to figure out the easiest way to post pics on here...  Trying to use Flickr and I am not sure I am doing it correctly.  Once I figure it out I will definitely post up some photos.

You should be able to just drag and drop your pics into your message.

Excellent! And welcome to the forum Tony. 

You should post some pics of your new Edge Sport.

A warm welcome to you. Witamy.

What colour is your Edge ST? You should post some photos of it for us. 

Nie ma tu wielu z nas z Europy.

Welcome to the Forum from me too!

Looking forward to reading all things Edge St here!

Welcome Missy P.

Do you have a pic of your Edge you can share with us?

Loads of these wind-deflector sets being sold on eBay.

Here for example. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/To-Fit-2016-Ford-Edge-Smoke-Tinted-Window-Wind-Rain-Deflectors-Adhesive/133010743417?fits=Car+Make%3AFord|Model%3AEdge&epid=24034930992&hash=item1ef80ee079:g:a9gAAOSw1~Nco3ne

You might need to change your settings to international though, as it looks like most are manufactured in Eastern Europe.

It soulds like you have to remove the center consul cover. This video shows how to do it on a 2019.

 

What's the betting it doesn't go back as easy as it looks in this video?

Note they switched from the 6 speed power shift to the 8F tranny with the 2019 refresh in Euro models.

True, but Andrea says he's owned their Edge for three years and his pic is of the pre-facelift version, so would be the 6-speeder.

Hello everyone, my name is Andrea and I am writing to you from Italy.  I bought a Ford edge for 3 years and 12569mi (unfortunately with a diesel engine because fuel costs a lot here in Europe) I must say that the car is exceptionally comfortable, spacious, reliable in safety ... But there is a crucial point that has me  made me think, what gearbox fits my Ford Edge?  What brand is it?  And above all, have you ever had problems with the automatic transmission?  Please help me here do not know American cars

Lotta lov guys

 

 

If it's a standard 2 litre 210PS diesel European spec Edge, the gearbox will be Ford's six-speed Powershift automatic. The Powershift is essentially a manual transmission with two clutches operated by computer, giving much better fuel economy than a traditional automatic gearbox with a torque converter. They do drive differently though, especially when new and take a little getting used to - they can be a bit "snatchy" at times.

Thanks, this model is pre-mixed so no need to add water, here's the product:

 

Part # 88862645

 

https://www.amazon.ae/ACDelco-DEX-COOL-Extended-Anti-Freeze-Pre-Diluted/dp/B07Q23CX84

I can't see anywhere on there that states it is equivalent to either WSS-M97B44-D or WSS-M97B44-D2. 

I wouldn't use it.

2 hours ago, omidsolo said:

Thanks, so does it mean the above ACDelco is compatible?

I would have thought so, if it says it is WSS-M97B44-D. It would just need diluting with distilled water.

Looks like the only difference is that the D2 is pre-diluted.

Welcome. Your car looks great. Liking the all black look. Very sharp.

Where are you? The pics look like you're somewhere in the US?

Having to give up my company Mondeo I wanted to get a large SUV to replace it.

I looked at, and test drove the following vehicles, the largest SUVs available in the UK:

• Jeep Grande Cherokee;
• Range Rover;
• Jaguar F Pace;
• Volvo XC90;
• VW Touareg; and
• Ford Edge.

I chose the Edge because it provided me with what I was looking for at by far the best value. Was one of the best looking too.

I had owned Fords for years (the car's layout, controls and features were all very familiar to me), found them to be very reliable and they had the largest dealer network with a dealership within a few miles.
