KugaEdge Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 Only had my Edge sport 4 days and loving it. It is a 2017car with 14k miles on it. Taking the shine of the experience though is a limp mode issue. Has happened twice when under hard acceleration, as the revs rise it chimes, spanner appears on the display with a check handbook message and goes into limp mode. Leaving it off for a couple of minutes clears the fault and it comes out of limp mode. I'll book it into the dealer, any thoughts for things I could check in the interim as it's very anoying?

Hamster Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 Sounds like a small air leak in the air intake system, something like an inter-cooler pipe loose. Its OK when pootling along but under hard acceleration will bring up a fault. Should be easily fixed. H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wizzo Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 After having the spanner appear, with similar symptoms, it was just the fuel filter that needed changing. (My problem was in extreme cold though) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edge of Reason Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 I had the limp mode thing with my old Kuga. It turned out to be the sensor for the diesel particulate filter. A diagnostic check at the dealer via the obd port will establish the cause. It could be a variety of things. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KugaEdge Posted July 2, 2018 Author Share Posted July 2, 2018 Thanks for the replies. It's in the dealer tomorrow so hopefully should be diagnosed and fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trent Edge Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 My DPF sensor failed but the only thing I had happen was the engine management light stay on constantly till it was fixed. Had to wait a month for them to get the part in stock though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KugaEdge Posted July 4, 2018 Author Share Posted July 4, 2018 So it's back, with a not entirely satisfactory response. Two old stored fault codes in the PCM, P06DD engine oil pressure control circuit performance/stuck off and P06DE engine oil pressure control circuit stuck on. Dealer solution is to clear them and see if they come back. To be fair it hasn't faulted and gone into limp for about 10 days now, but I still hold my breath every time I need to overtake something.

mjordan@mypostoffice.co.uk Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 we have the same problem with our B-MAX, worse is doing a right turn at a junction, was in Ford garage last Monday and again today, 10 minutes after leaving Ford garage, our info disappears, MPG miles to empty etc, after they disappear the car loses acceleration. at 18 months old very disappointed with it.

vicarofsheff Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 I have had the samended issue with my 17 plate Edge. Ford have said nothing show on pcm 🙂 Could I ask is it the auto one with 230BHP. Garage will say it 210 but look on Ford Etis site and it will tell you the correct BHP. Standard they are 210 but Ford made some 230 mine is the 230 and had nothing but problems, I previosuly has 210Bhp with no issues at all.

KugaEdge Posted July 8, 2018 Author Share Posted July 8, 2018 Tony, mine says 230bhp on Etis as well, I just assumed that was some sort of error. Is it true that some Edge diesels have 230bhp? Mine's been fine now for over a fortnight. I found out that mine had been parked up at the dealer for nearly 3 months before they lowered the price and I purchased it. I'm kind of hoping that the problem was just due to it having been parked up and needing a few spirited drives to clear everything out, Fingers crossed. Every drive I do at the moment I try do something at full throttle, either to try and replicate the fault or to satisfy me that it has actually gone away.

vicarofsheff Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Alistair. No pal Ford have admitted they have made a hand full of 230BHP a hand full to Ford could be thousands. Mine was still having issues when I dropped it in to Ford 3 weeks ago. I am going to start another post as I think my next issue might be important to some.

KugaEdge Posted July 9, 2018 Author Share Posted July 9, 2018 Really? What did they do accidentally put the wrong engine in? 😆 Well, I can't see any downsides of an extra 20bhp for free anyway 😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sealiedog Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Mine says 230 too, I assumed it was an error, but if its not, great! I cant see that 20bhp is going to make it a bad engibe, it'll only be different mapping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vicarofsheff Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Same engine just differant map apparently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KugaEdge Posted July 27, 2018 Author Share Posted July 27, 2018 3 more weeks in and no further re-occurrence of the fault. Can only conclude that it was because the car had been sat around unused for a while before I got it. Fingers crossed it has now gone permanently.

pipsyp Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Bit of a thread revival and not sure if this will help anyone else. I have a 2017 S Max with the 210 (or 230 if you believe ETIS) TDCi engine and have been experiencing this exact problem. Under normal driving car is fine and drives just fine no issues. Give it some, particularly in the higher gears and it goes into limp mode. Has done it several times and is quite difficult to replicate as you really have to be gunning the car for it to happen...all the worse though is it'd be potentially very dangerous on a higher speed overtake if it were to happen. Took car in recently and they replaced the oil Pressure Control Solenoid. I've not really had a chance to drive it properly since but the consensus from the Ford dealer was that when the car was trying to switch from low oil pressure to high oil pressure (as it does at higher RPM's) the solenoid was failing to switch between the two pressure states. Kinda makes sense as I guess at higher engine speeds, and higher road speeds the car is likely to flip into high pressure mode to ensure proper lubrication. Limp home comes in to prevent the engine being damaged by potential low oil pressure at higher engine speeds I would guess. I'll try and write back and confirm in due course but hoping this is the final fix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pipsyp Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 The oil pressure control solenoid was the fix, car is now fine. If you get the above issue and the two codes in your ECU it'll be this. Just be aware that under normal driving the issue won't occur, as the car has to be under some fair load/be at pretty high speeds in higher gears for the issue to occur as it will only happen when the car switches from low pressure to high which it will only tend to do when put under load. I had my codes cleared, and the issue returned...clearing the codes very likely won't fix the issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FEdge Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 pipsyp, thank you! my 2017 Ford Edge (owned 2 weeks) had similar issues when under hard acceleration or steep incline (engine under load) but no error codes showing. Took it back to garage and I instructed/insisted they consider the control solenoid. It was faulty and now being replaced and should get car back tomorrow....

simonb65 Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 This is starting to be seen as an issue on the Edge (now they are a few years old). The Solenoid in question seems to be a common issue (Fault Code P06DD) on the 2.0L engines in the ford range and there are a number of videos on YouTube that show you its location (next to the oil filter) on other models, and how to replace it (1 nut and a connector!). It seems to be a quite common part (NOT TO SURE OF THE ACTUAL PART NUMBER USED ON THE EDGE!), so I might get one in the toolbox ready! This video is for the 2018 Focus with the 2.0L diesel engine ... Be interesting to see if regular oil changes would prevent it from getting clogged up and maybe an ultrasonic cleaner would flush out and fix a stuck sensor! P.S. Had limp home kick in on my old MK1 Kuga and that was the regen diesel injector blocked on the DPF! Fix with a replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John250 Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 I've had the same error code and local dealer says the solenoid is €160 all in.

Scouser19 Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 Had the same issue with mine, solenoid changed but never cured ths problem. After reading up on it I put some DPF cleaner in the tank then thrashed the nuts off it for 30 mins. Done that a couple of times and fingers crossed seems to have done the trick. It seems to be an issue that can be caused by a few different things, best of luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil23JH Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 I'm sat in the Ford service centre having been told that this (limp mode on revs) is caused by the oil pressure control solenoid on my 2015 diesel S-Max. £300+ to replace. I think I'll shop around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure if you can buy this solenoid for £10 or you just lost one zero ;) I paid £108 I believe for mine but I still haven't found the time to change it.
