How to Check the Transmission Fluid in a Lincoln MKC?

[DamianMarie]

First, pull out the transmission dipstick from the Lincoln MKC's filler tube, wipe it clean, reinsert it into the filler tube, and then pull it out again to check the fluid level on the dipstick. If the fluid level is between the upper and lower marks, the amount is just right. If it is below the lower mark, please add transmission fluid. If it is above the upper mark, it means there is too much fluid, and you can drain some appropriately. Additional Information: 1. Regularly checking the transmission fluid level is essential for maintaining your car's transmission. The method for checking transmission fluid differs from engine oil. Engine oil is checked when cold, while transmission fluid should be warmed up to approximately 50°C. Then, shift the gear lever through each position, pausing for 2 seconds in each, before placing it in the park position. At this point, the normal fluid level on the dipstick should be between the maximum and minimum marks. If it is insufficient, add the same quality fluid promptly. 2. The transmission fluid level may vary under different conditions. This is because hydraulic fluid has higher viscosity at low temperatures, causing more fluid to adhere to internal components during operation, resulting in a lower fluid level. Conversely, at high temperatures, transmission fluid has lower viscosity and flows back into the oil pan more easily, leading to a higher fluid level. If the fluid level is too low, add the appropriate transmission fluid through the filler tube until it reaches the standard level.
