Lol Your not gonna find a Lincoln dealership willing to work on that 1990s Continental! Car dealerships don’t like to work on 20+ yr old cars because of parts availability and fragility. Not to mention the techs aren’t old enough to know how to work on the older cars.

Those cars are so easy to work on, back when cars were still cars.... it's not like a 1997 Continental is some exotic.

Good way to go bankrupt![Stick Out Tongue](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/tongue.gif)
The parts are no longer available. They might do an oil change on it (provided they have the oil filter and drain plug in stock) and alignment on it but that’s about it.
I couldn’t get the Lexus dealership to do a transmission service on my 2010 GS. But they will do oil changes and alignments for it.

Lexus did a trans service for my 2004 LS430 in 2015, just fwiw.

They said they wouldn’t touch it because of the age and mileage, They also didn’t know how to align the headlights. I ended up doing that myself.

Hey gang! I’ve been on vacation. Disney, then a cruise and back in Disney, flying home tomorrow.
Interesting article about the S Class and EQS, looks like no S Class refresh until 2026, which is frustrating. Have to rethink my strategy.
EQS update will be more conventionally styled starting with a refresh this spring/summer.

Haha, we actually went to Disney because it saved us money. The cruise was Sunday to Sunday over Spring Break, and the flight from DC to Orlando for 4 flying Saturday to Sunday was $3,900. Friday to Monday was $900. We own DVC (the Disney timeshare) and have annual passes so it doesn’t cost us much to come to Disney!
Thr cruise was the big expense lol.

Keeping it cars, had a Pacifica gas on the first leg before we left, amazing how much nicer the PHEV is. Have a Tahoe now.
