Hi jm. Has the coolant ever been changed in your 2014 MKZh? If not, it is time to flush/fill the coolant system/engine, as opposed to simply topping it off.

 

If it is time for a flush/fill, you can usually find discount coupons for a flush/fill on the Lincoln and/or Ford owners websites, and most individual Lincoln and Ford Dealer websites.

 

If it has been changed recently, then you can top it off with the proper specification coolant. The specification for your 2014 MKZh will be listed in the Maintenance and Specifications section of your Owners Manual. If you don't have your copy, you can download the PDF version here: https://www.fleet.ford.com/parts-service/resources/owner-manuals/

 

I would assume the coolant specification for your 2014 MKZh is the same as other MKZ models, but am not sure. So it would be best if you check your Owners Manual for the proper spec.

 

Once you have the correct specification, you can either purchase from your local Lincoln or Ford Dealer, your local auto parts store, or shop online. I would advise sticking with the Motorcraft brand, or another major name brand that states on the container that it meets/exceeds that Lincoln/Ford specification/part number. I would advise against using any type of "universal" or similarly branded coolant

 

Let us know how you make out and good luck.

Are you asking about the coolant for the ICE or for the inverter system controller?  I assume the latter based on the pics you posted.  It holds only 1 qt. but it's the same coolant used in the ICE's cooling system. i.e. Ford spec. VC-3DIL-B.

This is my third MKZh ( 13 , 16 ,18 ), and I have always changed the air filter and cleaned the engine compartment , and never noticed this little liquid holder .  I am always amazed to find new things about this car .
