  1. I have heard nothing but good about Redline. Normally I stick with the manufacturer's product. I am going to do my PTU/RDU fluid changes at 15K on my 2024 ST. PTU Redline full synthetic 75W85 GL-5 gear oil RDU Redline full synthetic MT-LV 70W/75W GL-4 gear oil. Fords PTU/RDU are ticking timebombs, unless you stay up the fluid changes. Seems like frequency is the key.
  2. It is the exhaust resonator. Same thing happened to me on my 2021 ST about 11K. Warranty knows this is an issue. I doubt there are any TSBs as Ford probably wishes this is another nightmare they don't need.
  3. Do not do anything aftermarket. Order the replacement tweeter from a ford dealer.
  4. My 2024 has rain sensing wipers. To be honest I don't really notice much of a difference. I actually went back to using the Wiper Delay and adjust as needed.
  5. Cheap gas is not worth the risk. Remember this post originated from buying cheap gas and a check engine light. That should be a red flag for all of us. Thank you for the post. It just enforces my belief that good top tier high octane fuel is beneficial. Maybe not such a big deal for a non-turbocharged engine???
  6. Unfortunately in California we only have 91 octane. I have been running it since new. I think for the ST premium is the only fuel anybody should use. My owner's manual says the vehicle is designed to run on 10 percent ethanol max. Mine is a 2024 so I cannot imagine any Edges made before mine are designed to exceed that limit.
  7. Samurai Edge, you said it. I could not agree with you more. Do not risk putting cheaper gas in your vehicle. Especially when it is a turbo charged engine. Remember the regulation on this stuff is minimal. It could be 20% and you would never know. Do not risk saving 2-3 bucks on a tank of gas. It will cost you down the road.
  8. I don't know but are you sure your vehicle is ok with 15% ethanol? My 2024 Edge ST is designed to run on 10% max. Ethanol is not good stuff. That's why it is cheap. Hope your vehicle is ok as a lot of long-term damage can occur to the rubber and plastic components in the fuel system if they are only designed to handle up to 10% and you are running an unapproved fuel.
  9. Remember the good old days when you used your eyeballs to look at your tires and if one looked low, you added air? And it was free!
  10. l too got the same update, even though I never had an issue. Hopefully it fixed the glitch that other people were having
  11. johnmarkp. What year is your ST and how many miles do you have on it? I have a 2024 with about 12 thousand miles and have encountered a few rattle and shake noises myself. My recent one was a panoramic moonroof issue which I believe I have solved. Last year I made a post about a rattle/squeaking sound coming from the same area you are dealing with. It only occurred at higher speeds. I ended up tightening all the screws that hold that same splash shield and the noise went away. All the fender well splash shields are attached so poorly, I could see that being your issue. When Ford introduced the ST they stiffened up the suspension, and the end result was more rattles! Very irritating to say the least. Keep us posted.
  12. Interesting for all of us for sure. Mine came with the 21-inch Pirelli Pzeros. Awesome tires!! Definitely better with the 21s. Dealers pull a lot of switch and bait crap for sure! At the dealership, sitting side by side, mine looked so much better than the one without the package. I felt since I was buying an ST, I wanted it to look like an ST. The package made a big difference in overall performance of the vehicle. Ford tells you everything that is included in the upgrade. No need to compare. Well worth the money.
  13. Samurai Edge. So, you are saying that you have no documentation that your 2020 ST has the brake package???? So, you really don't know what a difference the upgrade would have made to your ST....... Yes, the tires help. With tires, bigger is better. But I would let you know that the brakes also made a major difference. I drove both. The salesman was nice enough to let me have a little fun to feel the difference. The stopping power was much more aggressive, the handling was better, most likely to the larger stabilizer bars and sticky tires. Far from apples to apples. To wear the ST badge, this package should have been standard. The performance brake and tire package was one of the most important upgrades Ford offered to the ST.
  14. All I can say is I drove 2 different ST's before I bought mine. The first one did not have the performance brake and tire package. The second one did. In addition, it had the panoramic sunroof. Night and day on the braking. Could not believe the difference. Only when you have driven an ST with or without the package can you appreciate it. And of course, the one thing we can probably all agree on, sad to see the Edge go away. They finally got it to point where it was an amazing performance SUV. Then they stopped production. 😔
