22CarbGrayElite Posted May 18 Report Share Posted May 18 Just bought a 2022 Ford Edge Titanium with the Elite package for myself on Saturday. I traded in my 2016 GMC Acadia Denali for it as the fuel costs were getting to be too much for my liking. It also had a torque converter stutter that was most likely going to let loose before too long and with 145k miles, I decided it was time for something different, and more fun. This will be platform vehicle #3 for us. I bought my daughter a ‘22 Stone Blue SEL+ last July and two years ago, bought my wife a 2020 Lincoln Nautilus Reserve with the 2.7 engine. Mine is the Carbonized Gray with the two tone black and Brunello (burgandy) inserts. I love it. 20” polished wheels, the 301A and Elite packages round it up. Gonna do a few things like window tint and some black emblem overlays, along with diff and PTU fluid changes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
22CarbGrayElite Posted May 25 Author Report Share Posted May 25 Changed the PTU and rear differential fluids this evening. Neither appear to have been changed before. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samurai Edge Posted May 25 Report Share Posted May 25 Very nice looking vehicle. You didn't say how many miles were on the car. Don't forget to check any supplied maintenance records for engine oil, transmission and radiator fluid changes as well. If none supplied, better safe now than sorry later.

22CarbGrayElite Posted 4 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 4 hours ago 49.5k miles on it when I bought it, tick over 51,500 on it now. So far I have drained and filled the rear diff and PTU. Neither appeared to have been done before . Previous owner left a handwritten log in the glove box showing oil changes and a couple of transmission drain and fills. I just ordered a set of Motorcraft spark plugs and coil boots along with a dozen Motorcraft oil filters. I also ordered a turbo oil supply line as it comes with the filter and new o-rings and a gasket. Trying to hunt down transmission fluid. Rock Auto as of yesterday did not have enough Ford or Valvoline in stock. Gonna check out another brand called Triax. Lots of good reviews and carries the Ford certification. I can get a five gallon jug for $150. Seriously leaning on it. I am a maintenance person so I am particular to getting things done and keeping it rolling down the road smoothly. My commute is like 550 miles a week to work so I don’t want any let downs if that can be avoided. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
