Never used a torque wrench for a drain plug or an oil filter.

 

Crush washers are reusable.

I do it like my dad taught me...tighten it till it strips. Then back it off a quarter turn.

Ive got a 2020 2.0 titanium edition.. My work is 2 miles away..im in delaware..all stores are 5 to 10 away..i have 5400 miles on mine my average for the whole time is 17.1mpg...i went on vacation for 3 weeks..let my 71 year old mother drive us to the airport and use my edge the whole time..she put 390miles on it and now it says 16.9mpg.

Edge is a heavy vehicle for a 2.0 eco boost..you milage is right

I have 5400 miles on mine...never reset the mpg readout...mine shows 17.1mpg...in the instant I can hit 32mpg flat road with cruise.

But my 17.1 is right after filling up and doing the math with gallons and miles drove... My 1998 Svt mustang cobra averages 16mpg and I never baby it driving..with a 32valve 4.6 liter. And 20 year older fuel injection...where is the eco inthe eco boost??

Hi,

 

I've been driving 2020 SEL FWD for 3 months now and I've got problem with extremely low fuel mileage.

 

The car was bought with damaged exhuast system (the whole system was torn out) and it has been replaced with substitute, not OEM part. Apart from lots of exhaust steam in the morning, the system seems to work fine - no strange noises, no strange smells. So far, I've driven around 1.000 miles and my city best is 15 mpg (usually around 13) and higway best is 22 mpg. I use 95 octane (Europe), drive slow with not rapid accelerations. Official statistics say the it should be 21/28. 

 

Please help me solve the problem! The car is gorgeous but I can't afford keeping it this way.

I have a 2020 I bought new. I have 5400 miles on it...Covid kept me in..plus I have a mustang.

Ive never reset my MPG counter...mine shows 17.1mpg...im never on the highway..live 2.1 miles from my work..and live in delaware..nothing is far away..on the highway I get 32mpg instant gauge..

Ive wondered the same..now that gas is $4.86 a gallon now..my 1998 svt cobra I get 16mpg average with a 32v 4 cam v8.. I bought the edge for winter and to save gas.. Ive complained to the dealer on services... Ive drove like a grandma for a few tanks..unless your on the highway..gas mileage sucka

Greetings,

I have just picked up a clean 2016 with 54K on the clock. This would be my second Edge and always enjoyed them.

So after 1 week ownership the 2016 went back into the shop for a couple items to be fixed by the selling dealer and they loaned me a used 2019 off the lot.

The engines appear to be the same essentially, but the difference in performance and smoothness are blowing me away.

For those with experience, is the 2019 8 speed that much more improved over the 2016 6 speed transmission, or is something wrong with my 2016 ?  LOL

To me the difference is significant, and to date I have little experience with the overall 2.0 set-up from Ford.

Thanks ! 

I had a 2013 edge... My 2020 has a 8spd. In a 2.0 titanium edition

My edge takes off in 2nd gear.. Putting it in sport mode at a stop the tech and gear indicator comes on.. Dropping it into 1st manually. Its a rocket up till shift time...looking it up it has a 4.69:1 1st gear.. Nothing can see me off the line till 20mph..haha. Wife bitched at the 52k 2.7l ST price...i paid 44k for mine..all options..ive got a 98 turbod svt cobra..for 20 years so I did.push it.

Its not worth buying a new car iver it or swapping trannies.. I done many gear swaps..8.8s are easy.. Maybe up your gears

Welcome to the forums.....What a bold way to introduce ones self! I love the audaciousness of it!  What makes you say you have the fastest edge in the world?  What proof do you have to quantify that statement!  There are quite a few members who would love to see proof of that......

Could be possible out of a 2.0..no way bolt on parts...custom built turbo..rods..pistons..it would have to be a gen2 just to handle the fuel needs with 8 injectors total...i have a friend that bought from the dealership a turbo upgraded 2.3 ecoboost mustang 520hp turbo and tuning upgrade if u search Google...some deakera will install it.

Now if he is talking the 2.7l. Motor..no problem.  Bit he is getting at least and extra 50hp from that painted engine cover!!

Ive got a 98svt cobra with a single turbo..dyno tuning at my tuner after install I'm getting 492hp rear wheel out of a 4.6 and 9lbs of boost. Need better gas for more.

Anyway I'm checking this forum out for 2.0 mods..mine is a 2020 edge titanium 2.0.  $44k new. I have 5200miles on it in a little over 2 years

.my work is 2 miles from my house..i drive my cobra more than edge.

There is nothing really as far as bolt ons with it for the 2.0...they really shoulda put the 2.3 in the edge. Or IL really shoulda got the 2.7.

Question.. I never hit the highway..and even driving like a grandma..i only get 17mpg anyone else's mpg really suck
