1987 Lincoln Town Car Transmission Q&A

  • 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. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Lincoln? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small. Defying your Town Car towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Town Car is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • Does my Town Car's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Maintaining your Lincoln Town Car 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 Town Car? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Lincoln Town Car, 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.
