transmission

2020 Navigator 75k miles. Purchased in 2023 with 53k miles, CPO. Purchased extended warranty including lamps. I always thought the shifting was a bit harsh at times and slow speed operation, 20 mph to 40 mph was a bit hesitant and “chugged” at times. About a month or two ago the Navi would take...

I'm new to the Town Car and somewhat new to cars in general. The car has the shifter near the wheel where you lift then shift. Does anything happen mechanically with the transmission if you lift the stick but don't shift? Do you get better mileage by lifting it when idling at a red light in D?

Hi, Someone sold me a bad car unfortunately and I didn't know the issue was so critical before buying. I have a used 2017 MKZ 2.0L Ecoboost with 85K miles on it. It make a rattling sound when the car starts and in idle or parked. Once it starts driving everything is quite and runs smoothly. The...

I have 65k on my 2020 Navi, not sure if the transmission fluid was changed in the past as it's CPO and the dealer did not change it as part of the resale. I wondered what the groups experience, costs and advice re; transmission fluid change is? I am inclined to do it at the dealer because the...

In website based manual for the 2023 Lincoln Navigator, under transmission fluid temperature gauge, it states the following: TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMPERATURE GAUGE Indicates the transmission fluid temperature. Special operating conditions can cause higher than normal operating temperatures...

I'm currently looking at buying a 2017 model with just 58000 miles and disappointed to find some wear on the P, R and D buttons. I also noticed the same when looking at photos of other used Continentals online. I was wondering how many owners are facing this cosmetic issue?

Hopefully my experience with this issue helps other Continental owners that were as confused as I was about what was causing this issue. I brought my car to my local Lincoln dealership in Massachusetts and described this problem exactly as the title of this post indicates: for some reason the...

TLDR: the vehicle makes a groaning noise at speeds under 10 to 15 miles an hour and the brakes have already been replaced in the front. Les Schwab thinks transfer case, drivetrain, or transmission but isn't sure. Doesn't seem to be a problem in 4x4. Backstory: This is my wife's car so I'm not...

Hi: I recently posted this in what was probably the wrong forum, but someone kindly pointed me here. The poster threw out the idea that a remanufactured transmission might be worth the extra cost, because Town Cars tend to last a long time. I'd be happy hear to all opinions! Should I replace...

Should I replace for $2,100 the transmission in my 2005 Towncar with 150,000 miles? The transmission has gone totally out. The replacement would be a used transmission with 80,000 miles. It comes with a 12,000 mile/12 month warranty. Besides this, the car seems to be doing well. Except it...

Greetings! New to the group. I just purchased a Lincoln MKS AWD 2013 3.7L 68k miles and I am already experiencing hard shifting. The factory warranty is up in 1300 miles. I brought the car to the dealer twice and they flashed the transmission and added 1/4 quart to the trans. This has not fixed...

Just started on a road trip: 1999 Town Car, 130K miles, always serviced transmission on schedule. At light throttle, the 3-4 upshift is smooth. Pulling up a bit of a hill, the shift happens with a short shudder that sounds and feels like driving over a rumble strip in the pavement. Then when...

Hello, I have a 2000 Lincoln Navigator I am parting out. Some parts are gone. Doing the local CL adds but not to much movement so thought I would try here. 1) Complete Lincoln Navigator. I will update some photos later, but request pics of any parts you might want to see and I will provide...

1999 Lincoln Town Car Cartier. 191k miles. As long as the transmission is in Drive or Reverse the RPM is steady at around 625. When its shifted into Park or Neutral, the RPM fluctuates from 625 to 1300. There are no DTCs. Previous repairs- Replacement attempt of the heater core. Steering...

I have read that too much heat will kill the AX4N transmissions and that additional transmission coolers have been known to extend there life. My 2000 Lincoln Continental had "transmission service" at 24k miles. I assume that was a fluid change, I wasn't there. I intend to change the...

Hi Folks, I am a new member here and I live in East Texas. Recently bought 1999 Town Car Signature with 89,000 miles....classic little old couple owned it and cared for it. I had consulted this forum on many issues before I pulled the pin...so when the car had a very slight shudder I wasn't...

I got my first car (2001 Lincoln Town Car) for my motive of transportation, and I have been dreaming of getting that particular car since high school :cool:. I sent it to my mechanic for emission issues. I asked him to check the transmission fluid. He said it was a regular level. Fast...

Getting some initial general maintenance things down on my newly acquired 1997 Town Car Signature and dropped the transmission pan to change filter and fluid tonight and found this part floating in the fluid in the pan: There is no appearance that this might have broken off a larger part and...

Is this possible? My 04 V6 LS was recently totaled, and although I was devastated I found a silver lining. My trany has been acting odd. Shifting to hard, long slow shifts, has had me worried for a while, I was waiting until income taxes to do anything because that's the only time I'll be able...
