Questions About 2000 Lincoln Continental’s Transmission

  • What happens if I "ride" my Lincoln's brakes? 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 my Lincoln tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Continental’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Continental is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • Does my Continental's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Maintaining your Lincoln Continental transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Lincoln. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Lincoln Continental? Yes. Lincoln Continental transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.
  • Who does Lincoln Continental transmission repair? Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care can troubleshoot and repair Continental transmission systems. Book an appointment online today.
  • Is it okay to drive a Continental with a transmission fluid leak? Driving your Continental with a transmission fluid leak is highly discouraged. Transmission fluid is vital to the smooth operation of your transmission system, and a leak can put the entire system at risk. A transmission fluid leak may lead to decreased performance, overheating, and possibly even transmission failure.
