Engine Q&A 2014 Lincoln MKZ

  • Why does the check engine light come on when I start my MKZ? It’s usually normal for your check engine light to turn on upon ignition. It’s just your MKZ firing up its circuits. The light should go off shortly. Bring your vehicle in if it doesn't.
  • Why is my Lincoln MKZ making engine noise? Strange under-the-hood noises can point to problems within your Lincoln MKZ engine. Knocking or tapping could be a symptom of low oil. Whistling sounds could mean you have an intake leak or misaligned belt. Squealing can be traced back to a loose fan belt, and grinding might be coming from the brakes, not the engine.
  • What could damage a Lincoln engine? [ordered-list-1-item-3-1]Are you unknowingly damaging your Lincoln MKZ engine? Certain driving habits can damage your engine and should be avoided. These habits include 'running on fumes,' revving the engine while still in Park, or slamming the gas pedal while the engine is still cold. Steer clear of these habits to help protect engine performance and efficiency.
  • Can I add water to my Lincoln MKZ radiator? An emergency is the only time you should consider putting water in your radiator. Outside of that, it’s recommended you use a pre-mixed coolant or a 50/50 blend of water and coolant. However, if you need to continue driving your MKZ when you’re out of coolant, having water in the coolant reservoir is better than nothing.
  • What can cause a MKZ engine to suddenly stop? Reasons your MKZ car engine may suddenly stop include engine overheating, electrical troubles, mechanical issues, ignition system problems, faulty sensors, and low fuel.
