Lincoln MKS

Additional Notes

• Across all configurations of the Lincoln MKS covered in these specifications, brake fluid level is expressed as a range rather than a fixed volume, with the reservoir kept between the minimum and maximum marks on the brake fluid reservoir rather than filled to a precise capacity figure.
• The 3.5 V6 EcoBoost from 2008-2013 carries both a check interval of 15,000 miles and a change interval of 24 months under normal use conditions, making those two model year groupings the only configurations in these specifications with time- or mileage-based service intervals stated.
• A 24-month change interval means brake fluid replacement is tied to calendar time rather than mileage alone, which reflects the hygroscopic nature of brake fluid and how moisture absorption over time can lower its boiling point regardless of how far the vehicle has been driven.
• The 3.5 V6 EcoBoost from 2013-2016 lists only the between-min-and-max level specification, without the check or change intervals that appear for the same engine in the 2008-2013 groupings.
• All 3.7 V6 configurations, spanning both front-wheel-drive and AWD variants from 2009-2016, carry only the between-min-and-max level specification across every model year grouping, with no mileage or time-based service intervals listed.
• The AWD variants of the 3.7 V6 share identical brake fluid specifications with the front-wheel-drive 3.7 V6 across all corresponding model year groupings, indicating no differentiation in brake fluid service requirements between the two drivetrain configurations.
• All nine configurations across both engine families are designated for normal use conditions, meaning none of the specifications in these rows apply a severe-use service schedule to brake fluid maintenance.
