What Does Your Lincoln MKZ Transmission Do?

The transmission delivers power from the engine to the wheels so that you can drive on your terms. Since the transmission has to translate the precise amount of power for your desired amount of speed, a small transmission issue can put a big dent in your MKZ’s performance. Such problems aren’t hard to spot. 2014 Lincoln MKZ transmission problems can show up as shifting delays, grinding when accelerating, the car shaking at any speed, or whistling noises or a burning smell coming from beneath the hood. Let Lincoln MKZ transmission problems linger and you could see your fuel economy decrease or find that you can't drive your MKZ at all.

Questions About 2014 Lincoln MKZ’s Transmission

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Lincoln? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. 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 it is. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your MKZ’s towing capacity. Check your owner's manual to ensure you have the proper towing setup and aren't going over your towing capacity.
  • When should I have my MKZ's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Maintaining your Lincoln MKZ 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. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Lincoln MKZ? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Lincoln MKZ, potentially causing transmission problems. A transmission fluid leak may be caused by a damaged transmission pan, faulty transmission cooler lines, worn-out seals, a cracked transmission housing, or an overfilled transmission.
  • Where can I get my  Lincoln MKZ transmission fixed? Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care can troubleshoot and repair MKZ transmission systems. Book an appointment online today.
  • Can I still drive my Lincoln MKZ if it has a transmission fluid leak? It’s not advisable to drive your MKZ if it’s leaking transmission fluid. Your transmission system needs transmission fluid to function properly, and a leak can lead to significant problems, such as overheating or reduced performance. You might even experience transmission failure.
