tamugrad2013 Posted October 22, 2014 Report Share Posted October 22, 2014 This afternoon I was driving home from work and as I was pulling away from a stop light I had hardly any power and barely got it up to 30 mph. I then pulled over shut the engine off and restarted the engine. It started very hard, but once it started it ran smooth. I still didn't have any power. About 2 or 3 miles down the road the check engine light came on and I decided to stop at O'Reilly's for them to run the code. It gave a low fuel pressure code. Luckily I am still under warranty and plan on seeing if they will tow it in to the dealer tomorrow and I can pick up a loaner car after work. It actually just ticked over to 30,000 miles today on the way home. If y'all have any ideas at issues please let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted October 22, 2014 Report Share Posted October 22, 2014 (edited) Check Engine Light with low FPR code? p0087? Did you also get the Wrench light? Service Advancetrak warning? Could be the fuel pump, fuel filter, or an electronic issue like a ground or resistor. Also saw this TSB, though the DTCs are unrelated.

tamugrad2013 Posted October 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 It was a P0087 code and no I didn't get a wrench or the service Advancetrak warning? It was picked up this morning by a tow truck and taken to the dealer. I will be picking up a loaner car tomorrow afternoon. I'll keep y'all posted.

tamugrad2013 Posted October 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2014 Well heard from the dealership and they said that the fuel pump failed and there is a leak in the coolant system. Coolant system leak isn't related to the no power issue, but I'm glad they caught it. Parts are ordered and should be in Monday Evening or Tuesday Morning and hopefully ready Wednesday or Thursday.

WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted October 26, 2014 Report Share Posted October 26, 2014 Looking forward to a report of success! Did they say where the coolant leak was? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamugrad2013 Posted November 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 So I have picked it up and its back to purring like a kitten and running as smooth as it always has. The coolant leak was apparently a minor leak around a seal which is why it takes a few months for me to notice the reservoir was low. And apparently the fuel pump was just a defective pump. All is well on my Edge now expect its filthy on the outside due to recent rain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 Nice! Good luck! The rain helps me keep the Edge clean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
selecoboost2013 Posted November 23, 2014 Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 I got the wrench light while accelerating to pass on a hill. Then I notice a mild loss of power. My wife took it to the dealer and I don't know what the problem was but it is fine now. Should we be worried about the carbon build up reported on other direct injection engines?

WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted November 23, 2014 Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 From all reports, Ford has had less issues with carbon buildup than their widely publicized German counterparts. The engine would still benefit from a DI cleaning service (upper induction service) or walnut shell blasting every 30,000 miles or so.

selecoboost2013 Posted November 23, 2014 Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 This is something that should be included on the scheduled maintenance. What I found is that 2 things can happen as carbon build up, one there is a gradual loss of power or two there is a sudden loss of power under hard acceleration. The second one is the one that concerns me more because it could be dangerous if you are merging on the freeway and suddenly the vehicle losses power on goes into limo mode.

tamugrad2013 Posted November 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 What would be a good way to get the system cleaned. I have ~30,800 miles on mine and if it is a good idea to get it done I would like to see about good technique or a good place to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 Look up BG's website for sites near you that offer the induction service. Could be a dealer or service shop. If you want walnut shell blasting for the intake valves, I would think BMW or VW sites have more information on recommended servicing locations.

MyWifesEdge Posted January 27, 2017 Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 I have a 2012 edge with 2.0 eco boost engine. The engine light came on last weekend caused by the P0087 code. I took it to the dealer for diagnoses and they determined a bad High Pressure Fuel pump was the cause. The quoted $568+tax to fix which included $300 for 3 hrs of work. I considered doing it myself because that's a lot of money. I got the Chilton's service manual for the car and read thru the procedure which called for the fuel pump and the high pressure fuel line (which runs from the pump to the fuel rail) to be replaced. Nobody - including myself - wants high pressure fuel leak under their hood. I wanted it fixed right, so I decided to let the dealer make the repair. The fix was make and the car runs good, but I found out the dealer only replaced the fuel pump - two bolts and two line connections located on top of the engine. This did not take 3 hrs. My question: Does anyone know if the Ford service manual say to replace this high pressure fuel line? I feel like the dealer cut corners, but charged me for the complete job.

akirby Posted January 27, 2017 Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 I sent this to a couple of Ford techs on other forums. I'll let you know what they say. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted January 27, 2017 Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 From thefoeyouknow (former Ford technician): I've never done one in the field, personally, but in ecoboost school they tell you that, yes, the high pressure fuel pipe(s) are to be replaced any time they are removed. This has to do with the ball flare seal they use and the torque involved it setting the ball in the seat. It's considered to be torque to yield, like a head bolt. They're concerned with the risk of a crack in the flare or ball of the pipe. They're made of a very hard stainless tubing that doesn't prefer to bend at all. Having said that, the risk is very low, and if it was going to leak, it would have immediately. He's not in any danger of a problem arising from the failure to replace the tube. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted January 27, 2017 Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 (edited) Replacing the HPFP itself is not a big deal, but if the manual calls for replacing the pipe, and the dealer is doing things by the book, you should have gotten a new pipe installed for the price you paid. Just my 2 cents. NOTE: To release the fuel pressure in the high-pressure fuel tube, wrap the fuel injection pump flare nut with a shop towel to absorb any residual fuel pressure during the loosening of the fuel injection pump flare nut. NOTE: Make sure that a new high pressure fuel tube is installed. https://www.fordpartsgiant.com/parts/ford-tube-asy_cj5z-9j323-b.html?Make=Ford&Model=Edge&Year=2013&Submodel=&Filter=(30600)&Location=fuel-injectors-and-pipes,,9J285 Edited January 27, 2017 by WWWPerfA_ZN0W 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted January 27, 2017 Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 The book labor on the fuel pump is 2.4 hours so at $125/hr that's pretty close. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
