2004 Lincoln Aviator Transmission Q&A

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Lincoln? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Lincoln Aviator? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • How often does my Aviator transmission fluid need to be checked? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2004 Aviator’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Lincoln, so check with your technician first. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can Lincoln Aviator transmission fluid leak? Yes. Lincoln Aviator transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues.
