Additional Notes

  • The Lincoln Continental transfer case fluid capacity for the 2.7 V6 EcoBoost AWD in 2016-2017 is a fixed 0.45 liter, while the same engine configuration spanning 2017-2019 and 2019-2020 carries a wider capacity range of 0.45-0.7 liter, reflecting a variable fill window rather than a single fixed value.
  • A capacity range such as 0.45-0.7 liter typically indicates that the actual fill level depends on the drain point reached during service, meaning the lower figure represents a minimum acceptable fill and the upper figure represents a full service fill.
  • The 3.0 V6 EcoBoost AWD shows a clear shift in transfer case capacity between model year groups. The 2016-2017 configuration holds 0.45 liter, while both the 2017-2019 and 2019-2020 configurations specify a fixed 0.7 liter, the highest single fixed capacity value across all listed configurations.
  • The 3.7 V6 Ti-VCT AWD maintains a consistent transfer case capacity of 0.45 liter across both the 2016-2017 and 2017-2020 model year groups, making it the most stable specification among the three engine variants listed.
  • All transfer case fluid specifications across the 2016-2020 Lincoln Continental AWD lineup are designated for normal use conditions, meaning none of the listed rows carry a severe-duty or first-change-only interval distinction.
  • The 0.45 liter figure appears as the transfer case capacity for the earliest model year group across all three engine variants in 2016-2017, while later years show divergence depending on engine type, with the 3.0 V6 EcoBoost moving to 0.7 liter and the 3.7 V6 Ti-VCT remaining at 0.45 liter.
  • The 2017 model year is a point of overlap in the specifications, appearing in both the 2016-2017 and 2017-2019 row groupings for the 2.7 and 3.0 V6 EcoBoost AWD configurations, which corresponds to a capacity change between those two row entries for each engine.
