Questions About 2011 Lincoln MKS’s Transmission

  • What happens if I "ride" my Lincoln's brakes? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Lincoln MKS? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your MKS’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your MKS is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my MKS's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Caring for your Lincoln MKS’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. 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. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can my Lincoln MKS leak transmission fluid? Yes. Lincoln MKS 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 MKS transmission repair? Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care can troubleshoot and repair MKS transmission systems. Book an appointment online today.
  • Can I drive my Lincoln MKS with a transmission fluid leak? Driving your MKS 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.
