Additional Notes

  • The Lincoln MKT transfer case fluid capacity is 0.53 liter across all listed configurations, covering both the 3.5 V6 EcoBoost AWD and 3.7 V6 AWD variants from 2009 onward.
  • A 0.53 liter fill volume is a relatively small capacity, consistent with the compact transfer box units commonly found in car-based AWD crossover platforms rather than larger truck-style transfer cases.
  • All specifications are noted as transferbox fills under normal use conditions, meaning the 0.53 liter figure applies to standard operating service rather than a full overhaul or dry-fill scenario.
  • The 3.7 V6 engine is designated simply as "3.7 V6 AWD" for the 2009-2012 model years, while from 2013 onward the same displacement carries the Ti-VCT designation, reflecting a valve timing system distinction between those periods.
  • Despite the engine designation change from 3.7 V6 to 3.7 V6 Ti-VCT at the 2013 model year, the transfer case fluid capacity remains at 0.53 liter, indicating no change in the transfer box unit itself across that transition.
  • The 2018 model year appears in two separate row entries for both the 3.5 V6 EcoBoost AWD and the 3.7 V6 Ti-VCT AWD, one covering 2017-2018 and another covering 2018-2020, with the 0.53 liter capacity consistent across both entries in each case.
