How often should I come in for Lincoln MKT differential service?

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

It may be tempting to reset the malfunction warning light on your MKT, but it's important to resist the urge.

A drivetrain malfunction in your MKT should never be taken lightly. Driving with a malfunctioning drivetrain can put you in danger and lead to further vehicle damage, so it's essential to have a qualified mechanic assess and repair the problem as soon as possible.

Is my MKT’s transmission part of the drivetrain?

Yes, the drivetrain system in your MKT includes the transmission. Other components in the drivetrain are the driveshaft, axles, and differential. Together, these components deliver power from the engine to the wheels to push your MKT forward.
