Navigator question

I just want to know, what years are bad for the navigator? I know all the 3 valve triton problems with the spark plugs, but like is it really that bad?

This is not a low effort post (I think) I’m just bad at posting at Reddit

2015 2.0

Hello I have a good deal im looking at with a 2015 mkz with the 2.0. The used market is bonkers atm and it only has 37000 miles.

Was 2015 affected by the coolant intrusion on these? Im getting mixed results online some people say the mkz used the Mazda engine until 2016 some say they were all crap.

Thanks

Edit: thanks for all the replies Im still nervous on the 2.0 found a 2016 3.7 instead

CarPlay help

Hi everyone. My mom recently purchased a 2016 Lincoln MKX. There is one big issue. I’m not able to use Apple CarPlay. The USB ports were upgraded as Android Auto activates when using both. I’m wondering if CarPlay wouldn’t work because I have to new of a phone? I have the iPhone 17 and this is after Apple switched from Lightning port to USB C on their phones a few years back. My mom has a 14 Pro Max but we haven’t tested it due to her not having the right cable. If the issue is with the fact I have a USB C iPhone? If so does anyone know if those USB Wireless Car Play adapters are good to use in the car?

Aviator or TX…a call for help

Hi all, I’m having a seriously difficult time deciding between a Lexus TX F Sport 500 and a Lincoln Aviator Reserve II.

I like that the aviator has a V6 but the nearest dealership is an hour away and I’m not sure if going to a local ford dealership for service is worth it since I wouldn’t be getting “luxury” service. (Ya, I know half of you rolled your eyes at that lol). I’ve also heard that it’s really hit or miss and you either get a great one or something problem probed that’s always in the shop.

The TX has reliability in its favor, but the bucket seats make me question that second slice of pizza and I’m not completely sold on the turbo charged 4 cylinders.

I know the disgruntled voices are always the loudest but the aviator complaints are rolling in my head. Based on solely the vehicles themselves, which would you go with and why?

I’m just wondering Why 🫠💔

I’m wondering why Lincoln didn’t consider a chrome painting in their regular wheels

In my opinion they have one of nicest rims shape in car industry BUT …

They sabotage it with two tone colour

From now on my next goal well be the chrome painting

2013 Lincoln Navigator

Looking at buying a 2013 Lincoln Navigator with only 67k miles on it. Is there any Ford/Lincoln warranty that I can purchase with a car that old or are we taking a risk? I was sold a car with engine damage before so the ability to buy extended warranty would put me at ease.

Auto start not working - is my battery bad?

Hey all, got a question for ya. I recently bought a used 2022 Lincoln Nautilus 2.7L. The engine used to shut off at when stopping at red lights, traffic, etc., but lately it hasn’t been doing that and the display reads “auto-start disabled due to vehicle charging.” It’s a fully gas engine - not hybrid/electric motor whatsoever. Do I need a new 12V car battery? I’ve tried turning the auto start/stop function off and back on and it’s still not working. I typically drive to and from work which is about 15 miles of mostly 35-55 city driving. Any suggestions?

Nautilus-what’s the difference between comfort and normal drive modes?

I have a 2022 Nautilus and I was wondering what are the differences between normal and comfort drive modes? I get what the sport mode does, but wanted to know if anybody could give me a detailed description of the difference between comfort and normal modes are. Also, which one is the most fuel efficient. I’ve pretty much had it on comfort since I got it, and I wanted to know if there’s a big difference between normal and comfort. I switched between the two, but didn’t really seem to notice any difference at all. Definitely noticed a difference when I hit a sport, though!! What’s your favorite? Sound off!!!

Ford - The Continentals: the final step up.

Continental Mark III.

The Continentals: the final step up.

In this world, there are those who demand something beyond conventional standards of prestige and luxury.

That’s why there are Continentals.

Automatic temperature control is standard. So are Michelin steel-belted tires and a full complement of power features. Sure-Track, the computerized anti-skid braking system, is standard on Mark III, optional on Lincoln Continental.

At trade-in, a Continental can prove to be a clever investment. In fact, based on NADA wholesale prices, Continental Mark III continues to return a high proportion of its original manufacturer’s suggested price and so has an enviably high resale value.

One drive will convince you that Continental is more than just another luxury car. These are cars apart and above. At the top of the class.

I've spec'd a 2026 Nautilus Hybrid, does my offer look sound?

Hello all, I test drove this baby recently and received a quote on a cash offer from a local dealership. Fabulous ride, and while I was reticent about the ginormous screen and lack of buttons (eek), I found that the interface is pretty intuitive! Love that I can dictate many (if not most) feature choices, using my iPhone. (My biggest gripe though is not being able to manually adjust the air vent direction...seems silly not to be able to do that on the fly, quickly.) But that doesn't overtake the appeal of the car overall. I find it to be a great value for the luxury and drive feel. Anyhow, the printed out the door price I was given for a Reserve III, including Rejuvenation, 28 speakers, the Jet Appearance Package option, 22' tires, and white exterior, was $76,500. That includes a $2300 discount off MSRP of $77,300, and a $5000 rebate after taxes/title. Planning to counter offer with $74,500K out the door. Does this sound like a reasonable counter? The manager flat out indicated that the price is negotiable. But I have no idea how much. Thanks for any input from those of you who are more familiar with this than I. This would be my first Lincoln and I'm making a huge (personal) concession going no-buttons lol. Never in a million years could I have imagined I'd consider a complete 180 on that after driving this one. :)

2020 MKZ 2.0t

I’m considering getting back into a Lincoln. I used to have a 2020 Nautilus 2.7t with the ultimate package. I didn’t realize how much I enjoyed until I sold it. I found a 2020 MKZ Reserve with the Luxury package (full LED lights, Revel Ultimate, etc). it’s a one owner with full service history via carfax records. the only hesitation is the 2.0t. I know these had coolant intrusion in earlier years. are the 2020’s impacted? it is not AWD if that makes a difference.

thanks for any advice!

Brake coach doesn’t do anything?

I just got a 2026 Lincoln Corsair last week. I turned the brake coach on in the display menu but nothing ever comes up? I’ve turned it off and on multiple times. Does anybody else have this problem or am I just missing something?
