Overall, I can say is an excellent car! Lots of pros. Comfortable, great ride, lots of options, lots of bells and whistles, reliable engine, on and on. I could write pages on the pros, and how much I love this car, but your probably really asking the question to see if there's anything bad about the car, so I'll concentrate on that.
Right now for me, gas mileage is the worst one. I drive a V8 sport package, and i average 20 mpg even when most of my commute is on highway. That adds up quick with the miles I drive.
Repairs are very infrequent, but when they happen, they're expensive, and because it's a luxury car, it should be brought to a professional, likely a dealer. This is true with all luxury cars though!!
Lastly, I have one of the first models. It's and early 2000. There was a bug in the 2000 years in the first couple of months it was out. The tranny has quite a serious couple of seconds delay going into reverse. It was fixed inthe later production of 2000. But if you're looking to buy, just be aware. It's not bad, sometimes unnoticable. I don't mind it unless I'm in a hurry to go in reverse real quick. But it's worth looking for when your checking out your new ride!!
New AnswerI love my car, but have had extensive problems with air and heater. Six years now and problem still not resolved!!
Another Answer
I have been a mechanic for 6 years now and have had the chance to drive a lot of vehicles, makes, and models. The Lincoln LS is one of the cars I have enjoyed to drive.
Many people complain about fuel mileage, which I don't know why. On the highway, using only 91 octane and higher, I average about 24-30 mpg. In town, it depends on how you drive. Like most vehicles with an 8 cylinder, if you race stop light to stop light, then your fuel mileage will drop to about 10-14mpg.
My response to the question, "Is this a good car?" What do you consider a good car?
Every car is different. EVERY CAR BREAKS DOWN at some time. Cars aren't perfect. At least I haven't found a car yet that hasn't had something break, stop working, or have some problem.
It all depends on what you are looking for in a car. If you want just fuel mileage, then go buy a Geo Metro or one of the Hybrids. If you want a luxury car that isn't as expensive as a BMW, Lexus, or Mercedes, that handles better than a regular sedan, and can burn the tires, then the Lincoln LS is a car to buy.

Oil capacity 2002 Lincoln LS V8?
Spec is 6 quarts for a V8 engine with filter change. I would put in 5 1/2 quarts run the engine, shut it off, and then check and see if the other 1/2 quart is needed. Different oil filters have a different volume capacity in them so depending on the brand of oil filter you choose it may take 5.5 quarts or the full 6 quarts. remember, it is always easier to ADD more oil than it is to DRAIN half of a quart of new HOT oil out.

Where do you add transmission fluid for a 2003 Lincoln ls?
You don't. There is no dipstick or filler pipe. It has a drain plug, but to fill it I use a long vinyl hose attached to a funnel. The pan holds about a gallon of fluid. Make sure you use the right fluid. My 02 used mercon 5. Use only Motorcraft Mercon 5 or a synthetic (Mobil 1, Havoline Max Life) that meets Mercon 5 specs. Do not use any generic fluid that requires an additive to supposedly bring it up to Mercon 5 specs. Mercon 5 five is semi-synthetic and a few ounces of mystery additive isn't going to make generic mineral oil-based ATF into a synthetic. The correct way to measure or adjust the fluid level is: 1. Remove the plug at the bottom of the pan. A small amount of fluid may run out. 2. Remove the small plug on the upper rear of the pan. Add fluid until it starts to run out the bottom. The level is now correct. Should you have any questions about your LS, I suggest joining the Lincoln LS Owners Club (LLSOC).

Relay is a power switch. When you press some tiny button in the cab, it may not have big enough power rating to keep all the power to flow through it... the best example is your lights or wipers... those run through relay...
Now... every car has a whole bunch of relays... some of them are under the hood, some are in the trunk next to the battery... The question is which one you need?

You will have to get in the trunk pull a couple clips off that hold the carpet over the back side of you tail lights. There are 3 nuts that hold the light assembly to the car.
