Lincoln MKT

The MKS as a three-row estate, on the same D4 platform and the same engines — so its powertrain diagnosis is the MKS's and the Ford Flex's. What sets it apart is where it ended up: the MKT Town Car livery package replaced the Town Car as America's default airport limousine, which means a very high proportion of surviving cars have covered enormous mileages on short journeys, with the rear air suspension, the transmission and the door hardware wearing accordingly.

Information, not instruction

CarGeek is a reference, not a service manual. Its pages are written from public sources and from what other people have found, never from a manufacturer's own service information, so they can be wrong or incomplete for your particular vehicle. Some of what they describe carries real risk: high voltage, fuel under pressure, stored energy, hot and moving parts.

Have anything you intend to act on checked by a trained person against the manufacturer's own procedure for your vehicle. Nothing here replaces that procedure.

What makes one worth reading:

  • The car — make, model, year and engine. The same fault behaves differently on each.
  • What you measured, not only what you replaced.
  • What actually fixed it — or that nothing did, which is worth knowing too.
