How does Lincoln drivetrain maintenance help save money?

Servicing the drivetrain system can help you save money by saving other parts of your vehicle. A bad drivetrain can put undue stress on other vehicle parts and lead to premature wear and tear.

What are signs my Lincoln drivetrain is damaged?

Noises toward the back of your Lincoln MKS, leaking fluid, trouble turning — these could all be signs of drivetrain damage you want to address. Take action before something more severe happens.

How often will I need Lincoln MKS differential service?

Differential service frequency varies from car to car. Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician. We generally recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine since your vehicle cannot function without a differential.

What causes a MKS’s malfunction indicator light (MIL) to illuminate?

If your MKS has its malfunction warning light (more commonly called the check engine light) illuminated, it could indicate engine troubles, problems with the transmission, electrical issues, malfunctioning sensors, connector problems, or misfire issues.

Can you clear the MKS check engine light on your own?

While it’s sometimes possible to clear a malfunction warning light at home, it’s never recommended. If your MKS’s check engine light comes on, it’s usually because there is a problem in one of the vehicle’s systems. You should find and address the underlying issue to help keep your vehicle in great shape. By simply resetting the check engine light, you may temporarily get rid of the light, but the underlying problem is still there. It will only be a matter of time before the light comes back.

How serious is a drivetrain malfunction in my MKS?

If your MKS has a drivetrain malfunction, don't wait. Get it checked out by a professional mechanic. Identifying the underlying cause and performing the appropriate repairs right away can help prevent further damage and avoid unsafe driving conditions.

Is my MKS’s transmission part of the drivetrain?

Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your MKS’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your MKS forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.

What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2013 Lincoln MKS

Your MKS drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It spans the full length of your Lincoln, from back to front. It’s one of your MKS’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. Care for your 2013 Lincoln MKS to maintain its performance power. Follow Lincoln's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

Lincoln MKS Drivetrain Repairs

Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are not all the same. You don't want to go to any random shop for drivetrain repair. You want to come see the technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can take care of most 2013 Lincoln MKS drivetrain components including the CV joints, CV axles, and driveshaft. Your MKS might need driveshaft repair if you notice resistance when turning, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, clunks when shifting, or vibration as your vehicle accelerates. There isn’t necessarily a concrete timeframe for when drivetrain repair will be needed. The system's pieces and parts don't necessarily have a "shelf life." So much depends on the climate and your driving style. That’s one reason it’s a wise idea to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care at the first sign your Lincoln MKS doesn’t drive like it used to.

Is normal to wonder whether or not 2013 Lincoln MKS drivetrain repair is expensive. Minor differential repairs, like seal or gasket replacement, can lean toward being more affordable. Major repairs, like bearing or gear replacement, can sometimes be more expensive since they’re more labor intensive.
