The 23 Corsair manual says to enable "auto hold" select features then driver assistance on the synch 4 screen. Can't seem to locate either?

Hi littleneil. I have SYNC 3 in my MKZ, so I am not able to walk you through this via SYNC 4 experience. My guess is it will be in the Driver Information Center, under something resembling "Driver Assist" settings.
However, the instructions for enabling/disabling "Auto Hold" and other features are listed in our Owners Manual.

If no one jumps in with a step-by-step, just look in the Index under "Auto Hold" for the correct pages in your copy.

Let us know who you make out and good luck.
 
"Features" should be a tab along the bottom of the infotainment screen.

Upper left corner press the Lincoln symbol, then choose Settings, then Driver Assistance. It is somewhere in there. (I'm not in the car right now).

Also, once it is engaged, if you put your parking brake on while in park and leave it on, it will continue to engage and release automatically every time you put the car in park and shut off the engine. Nice feature!

Nice job! My '22 Nav does not have that Lincoln logo. What a jip! Lol
 
Is it standard on all trims?
 
You would have to download an order guide or ask the dealer where you bought it. I doubt it would show as a stand alone feature on the sticker but of course I could be wrong.

Auto hold is standard on all Lincolns now.
Things we take for granted:
Back up camera
Reverse sensing
Auto hold
Auto emergency brake assist
Blind spot lights
CarPlay/Android Auto
And lastly simple Bluetooth

These are all standard on every Lincoln. One would be surprised how many comparable vehicles don’t come with most of those unless you pay the bump for whatever ‘package’ has them.

People ask me ‘Does it have CarPlay ?’ which tells me many vehicles they are shopping against us don’t have that either.

I usually look up order guides but didn't in this case.

Thanks for clarifying my mistake!
 
My 2021 has physical buttons under the touch screen for this, but it is also SYNC 3.

If you take it to a drive through carwash, make certain you disable the Autohold before you enter the carwash.

Absolutely on the disable auto hold before the car wash. My first attempt was quite embarrassing until I figured out the auto hold was on. From the 2023 owners manual, page 303.
When using an automatic car
wash, make sure to switch auto hold
off, or shift to neutral (N) with the brake
pedal applied to ensure auto hold is
not active.

Shift to N with brake pedal applied and not activate auto hold seems like the easy fix.

Wow.

I thought this would be intuitive but I guess not! :cool:
 
I assure you there's nothing intuitive about this; I've no idea what auto hold has to do with car washes.
It depends on the type car automatic car wash you use but the one I use is a conveyer type. The kind where you put the car in neutral, take your foot of the brake and rollers pop up and push your car along a track until the wash is completed. Think of that process with your emergency brake engaged. Your car would be held in place, the rollers would continue to try and push your car down the track, and slide under the wheels. And if there is a car behind you there's no telling what might happen. Or the track could sense what was happening to you and automatically shut down.
