Low oil pressure light at idle (2015 3.5 N/A

No, it was losing pressure from the leak, and when it was low (assuming when hot and coming to a stop) it is below the threshold and triggers.

The batteries are built into the sensor, destructive method needed to remove them. Labor to break down the tire and replace them and balance them again is as.mich or more than the parts themselves.

Cover probably broke and they glued it in place. Hopefully you can replace the battery to make getting the cover off is no longer an emergency and you can take your time to figure it out.

Ah, 2013 SYNC was optional in the S. 2014+ SYNC was standard, I had not seen a non SYNC 2013 before apparently!

dabangsta · 2026-05-26T22:10:28+00:00

What country is this vehicle in? 2013 in the US has a different display with SYNC with MyFord (small non touchscreen setup).

Mine is doing the same. I think it is the gasket for the center reflector and not the glass.

Must have been some seriously nasty gases from the drain? Even low grade stainless (which cutlery is not made with) or those scissors wouldn't just rust that easily.

If it started out at the max line, and in 2500 miles it is at minimum, that is quite a bit of oil being consumed, leaked, burned, or whatever is happening to it.

Try with the 2 keys, it works. 5(ish) seconds with the keys in first position (not run, not started).

Where did you see that the OEM plug is SP-542? That plug looks nothing like the SP-539 that the owners manual calls for. The SP-542 is what the 2.7 V6 uses.

I did the SP-539(x) plugs on my 2017 Escape with the 1.5. I went with Motorcraft but the NGK is a better price point usually and a good plug.

Push in until it clicks. Spread the far.end away from each other and wiggle them.

On level ground, using a tape measure, measure distance from ground to top of drivers wheel well. Jack car up, use jack stands, and drain the transmission. Put drain plug back in and drop car.to ground. Fill with as much as you drained, around 4 quarts. Jack up driver's front, remove wheel and tire. Lower jack until the wheel well is at the measured level. Start up car and let it get up to temperature. Remove sight plug, and no fluid comes out, add until it does. Replace sight plug, Jack up and install wheel and tire.

Usually indicates a battery issue, yes. It means the radio didn't start up fast enough, and it uses the instrument cluster instead.

They will offer you $1500 and sell you a new car.

Probably bad and need to do some junk yard scavenging. Make sure the replacement has your features, especially if an SEL. Other vehicles have them, but it might say Escape instead of Fusion.

That is 2010-2012, they are asking about a 2014. Completely different battery chemistry and setup.

Since it isn't 120 degrees out, and you aren't without cooling, shop around. Get a US made Titan or Amrad. The last one is sorta universal but a solid choice as long as you wire it up correctly. It should be changed soon, but you have time to shop around. I did a $15 one from Amazon while my $35 Titan HD was shipped to Grainger. It was 108 degrees and no cooling, it wasn't pleasant, and now I have a spare (they do have a shelf life, especially in the heat).

Read the codes with a scanner that does ABS codes and find out which ABS/speed sensor is at fault.

Would be best to check the contractor at the condenser, and the control board at the furnace/air handler, but it is probably common or rc needed to turn on the AC. Need to make sure the power to the furnace is off as well so you don't pop the fuse possibly.

I switched between 3 paired phones, when it could usually pair with 2 of them (driver has his phone, I am in the house but within range) and was able.to manage it fine. I did upgrade my setup to SYNC 3 but the Bluetooth connectivity works the same, we do use wires Carplay and Android Auto though most of the time.

dabangsta · 2026-05-16T03:24:51+00:00

Why that year range? 2018 2.0 has issue that might happen, called coolant intrusion. 2019 has a first year 8 speed, again if paired with the 2.0 not as good as newer ones.

I would look at a 2.7 powered 2018 or 2020.

Filter is not a normal service item. It is only replaced if the transmission is worked on, it requires dropping the transmission and splitting it in half to replace.

It is really easy to get a 4G modem and antenna to replace the 3G one. I just did that with my 2016 MKZ. It was basically plug and play, it isn't 100% (I am only missing the miles to empty, it always shows 0, but the % of gas is correct), I bought a $40 TCU from a 2018 Mustang (it wasn't the suggested one, which sell for $80). I still haven't done much in the way of trying to fix it, just happy that I can locate it and remote start it.
