This is a Ford Edge/Lincoln MKX and Nautilus maintenance and repair channel dedicated to the upkeep on the Ford Edge/Lincoln MKX and Nautilus. My previous Ford Edge SE (Orange Crush) clocked over 286,000 miles prior to my trading it in and the engine and transmission were running great. I currently have two 2011 Ford Edge Limited's (one blue and one cinnamon). I also collect video from my drives across Iowa, Minnesota, Illinois, Indiana, South Dakota and Wisconsin not excluding other states as I travel in the 2011 Ford Edge. My repair videos are a joint effort with MercyGirl and her assistance is always appreciated. If you like my videos please hit that LIKE button and of course subscribe to my channel. Encouragement is always appreciated. Have fun as we drive the Ford Edge, Lincoln MKX and Nautilus. Discover the great attributes of the Edge, MKX, Nautilus and of course make the repairs that are needed.

How is it driving ,?
Hey so how is this oil is it legit? I'm about to put it in my 370z and hopefully since it has ester in it it will make it run quieter.
I just got a 2024 Edge St. Does my system work the same?? Thanks
So it hasn’t been that reliable for you
Fast forward to 9.30 to get to the actual point of this video.
I'm from your MACT edge FB group! I'm planning on changing my front axles/the front knuckle assemblies this week. Gonna grab motorcraft axles (because I hear some say aftermarket sometimes are different spec and don't fit right, but did I hear youre using Detroit axle axles? Maybe I should get those instead? it's a 2011 edge limited AWD) I was also kind of nervous in case the axle nuts that came with the knuckle assemblies were too big, Now I don't feel too bad in case I need to re-use the original axle nuts! I know most say not to, but I feel better knowing you did so, lol. Gotta do what you gotta do! Thanks for the video as always!
Is it possible to remove the desiccant bag from the bottom of the vehicle with the condenser installed? If so, then what all must I remove to access?
I saved $$ by buying the “ready-mount” FCS struts than buying the so called “premium” KYB’s. Overthe lifetime I keep my car, I can buy 3 sets of FCS struts to every 2 sets of the KYB’s and the risde quality is not coticuble and the FCS have lasted about 15k miles longer...
I dont have any oil leaks but i have a oil burning smell at very high revs. Is it from this or the valve cover ? But no visible leaks. But after driving 1500 kms to 2000.kms 300 ml of engine is lesser. No ford mechanice able to explain. Do i need to update the valve cover as you suggested in other videos?
I have a 2014 ford edge . I ordered a new new Rear differential is there a different clutches or are they all the same
I plan on a 10W-30 dexos rated synthetic for a 2021 Ford EcoSport 2.0 SE AWD in the warm months and a Super Tech 5W-20 synthetic in the winter. The reason is that the closer the two numbers on an oil are, the more base oil and less viscosity improvers (polymers) there will be. VII viscosity improvers are far less robust than the actual base oil. They shear down and evaporate much easier and quicker. The reason for deviating from the recommended oil in warm months is that this vehicle is an extreme fuel/oil diluter. Both 10W-30 and 5W-20 are the most robust oils for their respective viscosity.
Engineers should have to work on what they design. A part that needs regular maintenance that doesn't have a drain plug or filter access. Wait ti you change the alternator, it's the first thing on the assembly line and they build the car around it.
Only the 2019 Edge does not have this problem. Other 2019 models that use the 2.0 can have the issue depending on the build date. Here are the models that can be affected by the engine coolant intrusion problem: - 2015-2018 Edge - 2017-2019 Fusion/MKZ built on or before 8-Apr-2019 - 2017-2019 Escape built on or before 16-May-2019 - 2017-2019 MKC built on or before 18-Apr-2019
Could the same be said for a reverse swap? I’ve got a 3.7 Mustang and was thinking I could put a 3.5 EB in when the engine gives out
2019 edge st has a tow mode fyi
People saying 5K, 3k, 30K changes etc etc. Sending Multiple oil samples in for analysis is the only way to know when to change your oil and what oil your engine likes.
Manufacturers love complicating things these days to get you to bring it to the dealer or buy special tools. Why not just make it a connection that can be removed using basic tools?!! The way it used to be.
😁 AWESOME‼️ 👏 Great instructional video‼️ Clear & concise! I hadn't done my own brakes myself in many years. I had forgotten how easy it can be. 🤨 The dealership wanted $1,250.00‼️ 💸 😏 I got pads & rotors from AutoZone for only $420.‼️ 💸 💪😎👌🇺🇲 😜🤑💰👹🇺🇲
The 1.6 Fiesta ST is a beast
Using old oil for this test invalidated the results
Thank you so much
Got a Ford EcoSport. 2 liter. Naturally aspirated. Going to put valvoline 75W-140 in the PTU. Hopefully, this month. It takes Motorcraft 75W-85. I'm not going that route. Has 9,400 miles on it. 2021. I don't see 6:50 a drain plug for the differential. Only a fill. Want to put the same 75W-140 in that, too. Gonna use a 0W-30 instead of 5W-20 around October, then switch to 5W-30 towards May. 20 weight is too thin. CAFE standards can bite me.
Heat shield
Do you service and work on ford Edges? If so where are you located? I have a 2019 Ford edge I would like to properly maintain and keep any issues away.... sound like you know alot about them, hard to find someone today that wants to work on anything.
Cuántos sensores lleva para el aceite y dónde los lleva? Gracias
Is it safe to drive with bad egr coolant system if we ensure it has coolant
Having a puddle of water in garage floor even while sitting for few days, can I assume that it’s partly clogged and dripping out while parked? Not oil, trans or coolant. Just don’t remember hearing sloshing but don’t drive the wife’s car that much. Great vid! Thanks
Found on road dead…FORD
Just bought a 2019 Raptor... considering ESP. Thanks for the video.
I came to this video to watch you install the phasers (the part you forgot to film). I want to see other people struggle to install them.
Get well soon !! Prayers are with you !!
You were exactly right !! My 2018 escape had chattering and vibration from the rear of vehicle when turning sharp left or right ,upon removing clutch pack there were obvious signs of discoloration from getting hot at some point . Unfortunately I replaced both rear wheel bearings and both axels prior to seing your video , just wanted to say thank you ! I hope you continue to recuperate from the recent health issues you have been going thru , God bless !
I am thinking about you Bill from Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada. You sure have been through a lot this spring, but I know your going to come out of all of this on top. Thank you for all that you do to contribute to your channel on KZread. Rest up and get stronger and come back and make some more content for us to learn from and enjoy. All the best to you and your family.
I did this from the top by removing the heat shield off the exhaust manifold. its easy, just three bolts and O2 sensor connector to remove, this gave me more room for my hands to reach the connector.
man you ask to many questions over and over ...what a stupid video
Quiet it sounds loud
So I did the same exact thing - I changed out the clock spring but didn't realize the steering position sensor was attached to it on the back - so I threw it out and installed my new clock spring without the steering sensor!!! then got all these error messages. Now I ordered a new sensor and will repeat the process!! LOL live, learn, share! that's the way.
I just chose the idea of not having passengers and if someone wants to be a passenger, I unbolt the passenger seat and leave it in the garage
Thank you OG
I would like a paper or download on a 2014 edge I appreciate your information on the 2011 it said 2011 to 2014 but there's several things on the 2011 that is not on the 2014 if you don't mind it really was a good video and thank you I understand on the side panel on the underneath there you can't get down real good on it but I would like to see at a download where it does just a little bit better on that right The view and seeing it better thank you
God's speed MacT Still driving my 2011 limited with 275k and my son a 2011 with 175k in big part thanks to you for sure and all the dyi advise and teaching. Thank you
with so many anomalies with the report shown on this video how do you even have subscribers? Whatever credibility was there is tarnished. Certainly will never come back for sure. Life is too short to deal with this type of material.
I own a 2013 Ford Edge, 3.5 v6 with 140,000 miles. No problems yet but I change my oil every 5000 miles with full synthetic and change my coolant every 3 years withFord oem antifreeze. I think that is the secret to making the water pump last.
I have called every batteries plus in my area and they tell they cant do it i think they just dont want to.
Very helpful, solved my issue on Lincoln MKX, aka dressed up Edge 😊
God bless, Chief!
Please get rid of that charger, that seems like the same one that nexpeak has, this blew up my batteries and caused a huge fire, it overcharged the batteries
MacT wishing you the best , prayers for best recovery.
I have a 2011 Edge. 169k miles. Runs and drives beautifully
The Godfather of the Ford Edge. Keep fighting the good fight and stay positive! Prayers!
