Vehicle
Lincoln Nautilus
The mid-size SUV, a Ford Edge with different trim, renamed from MKX partway through its life — the same vehicle under both names, which matters when searching. EcoBoost four and V6.

MKX (first generation) 2007–2015
The original MKX on the Ford Edge's CD3 platform with the 3.5 Duratec — the water-pump-inside-the-engine design that makes a coolant leak an engine-out job.

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.
