The recommended transmission fluid for the 2008 Lincoln MKZ is Dexron ViATF, with a total capacity of 13 quarts. To keep the transmission running smoothly, it is advised to have the automatic transmission fluid and filter changed and flushed every 60,000 miles. This maintenance is crucial in preventing gear slipping and other potential issues that could cause major transmission damage. Using low-quality transmission fluid can hinder proper lubrication of the gears, leading to metal-to-metal grinding and contamination of the fluid with metal fragments, resulting in further complications. Transmission fluid prices typically range from $7 to $10 per quart, depending on the quality and brand of the fluid.
