  1. I spoke with my Lincoln dealer and MyLincoln Touch app works through the satellite not the embedded modem which I have on my 2016. That's how the 2016 works and why it sometimes takes longer to update
  2. DIMA, had you read my complete post I gave my opinion of the 2020 base model MKZ FWD the entire 2020 base package is crap read it all please
  3. If your car is tuned it's not stock engine it as far as sync 3 the base sync 3 Is crap as it didn't have navigation and I wrote this post before I realized Google maps doesn't use hardly any data. Either I wasn't used to sync 3 or it's clunky switching between android auto and satellite radio. I could tell Samantha to turn up the heat sync 3 wouldn't in the Base 2020 it was then first 2.0 I drove and wasn't impressed considering it had only 6,000 ,miles onmmit. I couldn't keep the car in comfort one time I had to floor it CRAZY TAMPA DRIVERS it for stuck in a a low gear I had to pull over stop and take it out of sport. The ONLY thing I like about the car was the adaptive cruise and braking technology and brake hold So, your car. What was increased with the tune? The reason i kept the loaner in sport was to keep that turbo spooled up. 18.4mpg in town vs my big v6 16.9
  4. Yup, it was fixed the end of February sometime. Lincoln logged into my account on an iPhone and oil life was there then they logged into it on an android and it wasn't. It took only about a month from my phone call to Lincoln pushing out the fix. Not bad in my opinion, they had to fix the app and ready it for selling car insurance. TESLA is leading the pack they are offering or going to offer insurance and Lincoln needs to keep up. Now it I could use my phone instead of my key fob ths t would be a,axing
  5. After having a 2020 base MKZ as a loaner for a week I'm not a fan of the new sync or I just couldn't figure it out. It didn't have navigation it had ANDRIOD auto which if I had unlimited data which I don't I would never use AND the seat doesn't move back as far as mine does (2016) and the steering wheel doesn't move enough that base Lincoln isn't worth 32k sorry the 2 liter turbo is useless it doesn't save gas and it struggles to cool the cabin
  6. What doesn't work? The Lincoln Way app? It does on my 2016 I have Sync with My Lincoln Touch it has wifi but the app doesn't work thru that it's got to work via the satellite antenna cuz I don't have the Modem set up with a cellular provider
  7. Yup amazing in the snow rarely see the traction control light come on that's with new Continental Extreme Contact DWS06 the Fusion guys love these tires too. Great all season
  8. I'm in the need for help I WILL PAY YOU if you are as good as Robert Ingle I'm traveling from Wisconsin to Tampa include make a pitstop to have some things Robert says are possible with FORScan easy if your Robert me NO WAY!!
  9. Go here https://www.4dtech.com/ pinch in the make and model it's a 1700 dollar cost for one that's programmed to my car. The Lincoln dealer wants 3600 bucks I have a 2016 with navigation and
  10. Every since they they pushed out an update her 3.14.0 I've lost the ability to see my oil life percentage. As on the 3.15.0 version they were aware of the issue on Samsung aka Android devices. Lincoln Concierge logged into my account on an iPhone and the oil life is there. The most recent version update they pushed out was 3.16.0 I was excited it's fixed well it isn't. I've heard of other features disappearing since that 3.14.0 version. I'd be willing to pay for a one time payment for the app as long as it worked
  11. If you can locate your car on your Lincoln Way app they know where you are at all times if "they" wanted to. As far as speed I wouldn't race this car unless the PTU had fresh gear oil in it before racing it and drain and fill after. Ford/Lincoln should have let the AWD controlled in the back that's how it's done in the explorer and aviator as well as the navigator that's why the sedans are gonecan you keep up I know there are several topics I'm speaking with just you (bbf2530) if I with the Lincoln Way app can see via satellite it's 2 way Ford and Lincoln Way more it's free for the life of the car for a reason selling my data and I'm cool with that and yes I know what you were discussing I just thought you could track a programming topic along with mechanical parts and the reason Ford and Lincoln no longer sells sedans. CADILAC does sell AWD SEDANS because they place the engine in the car longitudinal and the car is RWD biased. Go pop the hood on a new Ford Explorer the engine is longitudinal it's built correctly maybe Ford will bring back the MKZ in an EV oh dear more topics in one comment
  12. How many miles s re on it? Is it in sport when you hear this. If it's sport it could be a bad bushing if not it could be a bad PTU TAKE IT TO THE DEALER LINCOLN DEALER
  13. CAR INSURANCE? If what hit you came off the CAR or truck in front of you his insurance or collision unless you only had comprehensive I'd never drive this car without full coverage. I was looking around for an LED headlight bulb and none are available which means you must buy the entire housing from the dealer. Adaptive headlights must be 1200 or more
  14. I got 18 MPG in town after the new PTU was replaced I paid to have the RDU gear oil change, transmission flush. I HAVE NEVER SEEN 18.1 EVER
  15. Make sure they have an MKZ longer cuz I got a 2 liter ecoboost Ford Escape j had to keep it in sport and (think 2 liter of soda) was. Always screaming no wk nder those little turbos don't get the rated mileage. I had to recline it to equal the power of my 3.7L. I never hear the engine running in my Lincoln
  16. The Lincoln dealer wants $3600 from my touch 2 to my touch 3 if I knew a mechanic who woukd to the install here I'd buy from these guys they didn't say if it was the complete infotainment refresh with the buttons and knobs if it was I'd hafta think about that
  17. Maintain your PTU & RDU I'm sure they hadn't been done make an appointment I took mindd on at the "recommended" miles the PTU was cracked AWD sedans aren't maintenance free ~ unless you're a FWD
  18. Trust me Lincoln knows WHERE your car is. Especially if you have the embedded modem. It would take a court order. I was not inferring location. With performance but it very well could be an ability for instance when you're at the track it could send out a few 1's and 0's I would never take mine to the track anyway reason I bought those continental extreme contact DWS 06 98Y the W speed ratingonly came in a 94 load these tires don't make a peep around corners they grip in snow as if It were a summer day it's hard to find an aesthetically pleasing performance tire that's great in the snow the year of research paid off
  19. OIL LIFE REMAIMING GONE ON ANDRIOD PHONES ONLY I CONTACTED LINCOLN CONCIERGE THEY ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND WORKING ON A FIX. IOHONE USERS AREN'T EFFECTED. I JUST BOUGHT A GALAXY S20 5G THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE DECEMBER 22, 2020. CHRISTMAS AND NEW YEAR IN THERE. They have pushed out 2 new upgraodes since this and it's not fixed yet. There are other issues life scheduling starts I'd gladly swap scheduled started formoilf life but sadly that isn't possible
  20. In your detailed pics all I saw was a crappy (sorry) ceramic coating
  21. The factory tire specs frankly suck. I was down to picking michilens or continental the continental didn't have a 98W only a 94W 98 and 94 isn't he load each tire can handle the continental extreme contact DWS 06 are amazing is all seasons curious why the 2019 same specs except a lighter engine maybe the tire pressure is 38 and not I forget the recommended psi for my OEMtires since I have my dealer pump to 38. I only have 2.75 inches between the road and rim and the front is heavier than the Rear I th ink it's 36psi oem spec 2016 the 2019 is 38 psi wonder why that is coukd it be because they eat tires at that lower pressure
  22. My tires are rated at 168 they are a 98Y continental extreme contact DWS 06 the Germans might be able to remove that electronic limiter as I'm sure the car knows where it is with the sat radiomeven if it's not connected
  23. Make an appointment at your Lincoln dealer and have thsst tranny flushed it's worth it. Every 30k miles these cars were marketed maintenance free please fluids brake down and 10k between oil changes STUPID that's so down the road you hafta fork out 5k for a new engine
  24. I have 32,250 with a new PTU, the Rear Differential gear oil is new I change my engine oil and filter once it hits 50% life remaining I just had the transmission fluid flushed at the Lincoln dealer actually everything is done there with the semi synthetic Ford oil I get (according to the computer) between 15.9 and 17.9 in town the 15.9 is because of remote starts in the winter. Have you had the PTU gear oil sucked out and replaced I assume since you have a 2014 there isn't a drain plug I sure hope you have a Extended Warranty when my PTU went out at 30k I had actually taken it in for a fluid replacement and the discovered it was cracked it had 28,529 on my "Certified Used Lincoln " 1500 miles after the certification I WAS PISSED even tho it didn't cost me a dime SO, IF YOU HAVEN'T SERVICED YOUR AWD PTU (front) RDU (back) That WILL ADD DRAG in town. I'm headed to Tampa I will update you on my MPG also I only use non ethanol gas.
