Thanks for the usual updates & information. But having the Lincoln MKX & MKT mentioned in the SSM when there are no MKX or MKT models equipped with the 6F35 Transmission is concerning. Gives the impression their own data is not reliable, who knows what other information they have is incorrect & how it might affect things, in a bad way.
