Questions About 2015 Lincoln MKX’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. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Lincoln MKX? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your MKX towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • Does my MKX's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Maintaining your Lincoln MKX transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. 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. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
