Additional Notes

  • All automatic transaxle capacity figures across every Lincoln MKS configuration are listed as dry fill values, meaning the quantities reflect a complete overhaul fill of an empty unit rather than a routine fluid service top-up or partial drain-and-fill procedure.
  • Two distinct dry fill capacities appear across all configurations: 10.3 liters and 11 liters. Both figures are listed simultaneously for the same engine, drivetrain, and model year groupings, indicating the transaxle accommodates either capacity depending on the specific unit installed.
  • For the 3.5 V6 EcoBoost and 3.7 V6 configurations covering 2008-2011 and 2012-2013, only normal use conditions are specified, with both the 10.3-liter and 11-liter dry fill capacities paired with a 150,000-mile change interval.
  • Beginning with the 2013-2016 model year grouping, severe use conditions are introduced across all three configurations: the 3.5 V6 EcoBoost, the 3.7 V6, and the 3.7 V6 AWD. Under severe use, the change interval drops to 30,000 miles, compared to 150,000 miles under normal use.
  • The 30,000-mile severe use interval represents a five-fold reduction from the 150,000-mile normal use interval, reflecting the significantly greater thermal and mechanical stress placed on automatic transmission fluid under demanding operating conditions.
  • The 3.7 V6 AWD configuration shares identical capacity values and service intervals with the front-wheel-drive 3.7 V6 across all model year groupings, including both the 10.3-liter and 11-liter dry fill figures and the same normal and severe use change intervals for 2013-2016.
  • The 150,000-mile normal use change interval applies uniformly to all three engine and drivetrain configurations across the full 2008-2016 span covered in the specifications, regardless of whether the capacity is listed as 10.3 liters or 11 liters.
