w102acd Posted June 16 Report Share Posted June 16 We recently bought a 2019 Ford Edge ST from my in laws. I was expecting it to have the 8F35 tranny, but it has the 8F57. It was having shifting issues (maybe 4-5 with some "flaring"). My in laws weren't sure when the tranny fluid was changed so did that (and it didn't look too bad). I also reset the adaptive tables in FORScan and this made a huge difference! My question: In TSB 20-2190, it says "Reprogram the PCM using the latest software...". Is this different than resetting the adaptive tables? If it is different, is there a way for me to see if this has been done? I have a laptop, cable, and FORScan extended license. If it hasn't been done, is this something I can do with FORScan? Since it's good after the adaptive table reset, should I bother with this TSB? Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you will need a paid license, a very good wired adapter, and to know which Firmware versions are required. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the battery voltage drops too low, the firmware update can fail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STBEAST Posted Wednesday at 08:06 PM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 08:06 PM I just took my 2024 ST in for routine service, and I noticed on my service receipt manufacturers recall for a Transmission Control Assembly reimbursement. It is coded as 25L02. The dealer did not mention it to me; they probably didn't want to deal with it unless I was having an issue. It is not called a recall. Ford calls it a Customer Satisfaction Program, and it is Campaign #25L02. I am guessing there could be an issue with this assembly and it does not specify the symptoms. From what I googled Ford offers replacement in or out of warranty. Can anyone provide more details on this? I am going to call my Ford dealer and get more info. I am at 9,000 miles and I think there might be a slight clunk when I shift into reverse, but I need to verify as it has only happened a few times, and it coud be me not setting the parking brake. Also notice the transmission occasionally does a bit of an erratic shift (up or down) but it may be when I get on the throttle. Over all it seems fine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
