  1. Update. Had the tranny fixed. :). 4400$ and it was rebuild with a new torque converter. Runs good again. Also experimented with Blue Devil Head Gasket Sealant. It actually worked and still working. Been 2 weeks since I followed the instructions on the bottle and CEL cleared and isn't loosing water. I know it's your miles will vary with these products. But did read somewhere a guy used it for his ecoboost and lasted 9 months. Crossing my fingers. This car deserves another shot!
  2. No. Torque converter and highly recommended to rebuild it. There's a slight noise coming from the inside. 2 shops already looked at it and both said absolutely rebuild it. 4400$ to do it from a independant shop. One of the shop was the dealer. They quoted me for all the job of Tranny and Long block. 21k . Hahahahahhaha! Found it hilarious. Loved driving these cars since 2013. But I must part now.
  3. LOL. My transmission just gave out. Ok........ I'm done. Nice interacting with you guys through out the years. Good luck all!
  4. Yep. Same boat. Bought American to support our country. Had a Saturn SUV. Torque converter gave up with a rattle inside tranny. Put a torque and traded for a 2011 edge. Loved it. But coolant inside oil on the 3.5 l engine made me trade it in asap for a 2015 edge. Now hit with another coolant issue. Coolant on cylinder 1,3 and 4. Drinks water. Last week added blue devil as a last resort since dealer said 7k for long block. So far its holding but i think my water pump paid the price. Hearing it whine a little and water level dropping slightly again. Will have to keep a eye on it. Called Ford Corporate, they said nothing tgey can do but to notify NTH place... forget the name. The National Highway Transportation place. And said to reported so it gets linked to my vin and hopefully it gets a recall. So... pretty much told to pound sand. Lol. So here i am debating if i should give Ford another shot. Nawww..... I'm done. Currently looking at the new 2022 Rav4 Hybrids... they look so much like the edges. Really want one of those now! Check them out if you want a similar body styling. I think the interior is CRAP compared to the Edges... but I'm DONE with these coolant issues. P.S. Are the water pumps easy to do on the 2.0L engine? Anyone know?
  5. Ohhh! Wow.. very similar. Ok. So what did they do to fix it? Replace something or reprogram?
  6. What were your symptoms? And what was replaced? Mines is doing something weird lately. If I open it and close it and immediately open it again then close it, it stays closed and have the dash light that's open. Nothing opens it u less half a day passes by and then fixes itself.
  7. In talk with one atm. Let's see what happens. Hey, does this car have a drop in thermostat? Or part of the housing? I'm going to add blue devil to try to see if I get more miles. One guy had luck and got about a year more with no bad aide effects.
  8. Terrible design imo. For the people that don't have a garage and park at random spots around their living quaters... you will never notice a leak if you develop one.
  9. Just got quoted 6978.00$ to replace to a long block. hating this car with all the issues. For those that did it, did you go to dealer or independant shop? And how much? I've seen people say 5200$ to 8000$. Just depends where you are. So maybe post location and cost. I'm facing this atm. Thinking of doing it since it's far cheaper than getting another car loan.
  10. Too much info to get a quote. But thanks. If anyone has had the turbo replaced by a shop... post how much you got charged.
  11. Thanks for the reply. Good information! And yeah... 156k miles will probably not be in my favor but knowing these engines are almost all failing... might still help someone us with higher mileage. I ended up driving the car to the dealer since a rough IDLE came today around mid day. Would not go away like when at start up with the coolant in it. Even tried changing #3 plug in which my scanner pointed as misfiring. But it didn't fix it... rough idle. So just stopped there and took it to the dealer for them to diagnose it. Well ... let's see what happens now.
  12. I'm in the same boat. Coolant intrusion. Not sure how to handle this since trading it in is just impossible. CeL light is on permanently and eats cooland rather quick. Top it off every 4 days or so. My question for you is... did you have any kind of warranty on it? Or were you 100% out of any warranty? I'm asking since the "latent defect" phrase made Ford pay for some of the cost. Thinking of doing the same but I'm 100% in the no extended warranty boat and think it would be hard to get them to help me out. 7 to 8k is just not doable and feel as this should be treated like the 1.6 liter motor settlement everyone got due to the very same nature of the problem. Any advice would be appreciated. I like this car alot. Oh btw, I have 156k miles.
  13. Anyone know what's the cost at the dealer to replace the Turbo? 2015 2.0L model.
  14. Definitely make sure it don't have the internal coolant leak we are ALL getting. And yes... it can be hidden with coolant head gasket seal temporarily.
  15. I live In a major city in CA. And it's a very hilly type city. I can make the car give me 12 mph easily just driving local. Luckily I don't... hit the freeway more than anything. I can get 30mpg there.
  16. Lol! I'm doing the same. Will add water until the engines falls off. I'll probably try kseal. I heard good stuff about blue devil. Just scared to ruin my heater core with all those products!
  17. You need a new engine 100%. The person who sold it to you most likely knew. My 2015 is doing the same. Rough idle at start up. Now a CEL light of cyl 3 misfire. And waterfall noise. Been told it needs a new engine by a shop. So I'm driving it and topping it off until lord knows what's going to happen. Seems like the 2.0l Cleveland engine is faulty from the factory. There's a class action lawsuit going on but haven't heard anything of it sadly. Crossing my fingers ford does the right thing . Im done with ford if not. Next car will be a Japanese suv or full electric.
  18. Have any of you guys just topped off the cooland when needed? How much worse can it get besides the initial rough idle at start up? Does it eventually poor coolant inside the cylinder ? Or just trickles inside forever?
  19. Sorry.. I'm a total noob to this. When you said everything but the manifold and intake manifolds.... you mean the turbo also gets replaced? I want to be clear on the turbo since lots of people say that it goes bad and it's expensive to replace.
  20. I hear good stuff on blue devil. Scared to try it! Business at 150k and started to show all the symptoms. So I know I need a new engine. And doing the same... just add the water that it looses and crossing my fingers it lasts longer.
  21. Quick question. If rhe 2.0L get the long block replacement, what exactly gets replaced? Do you essentially get a brand new engine? Like the top end head gets replaced aswell with a new head and valves? What gets reused? Like does the turbo also get replaced with a new one or do they reinstall your old turbo? Debating if the 8k is worth dropping for it or just move one from the car.
  22. If anyone can clarify this question, would help a lot. So i purchase the right one.
  23. Do you have the titanium version with dual climate control? If so...the driver side like you stated is what you change right? The Amazon link to the door man has reviews with people saying to change both sides. I thought there's only 1 side [driver side]
  24. Hi guys. But confused which to buy. I'm aware I need the mode version. But reading on the Amazon Doorman one. People are saying that you need to replace both. Driver and passenger side. I thought theres only 1 module on the driver side. I have the titanium build with the dual climate control. Can someone clarify... and so you all know...... mines is stick at the front vents and no buttons on the touch screen do anything.
  25. Thanks for clarification. To understand it fully, there are 2 modules or does the trim model dictate the module you have to buy?
