This page covers the 2011 to 2015 Lincoln MKX: 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015. Other years live on the main Lincoln MKX wheel bearing page.
The rear is the only clean listing on this body: 513275 for all five years. Front is a gap for 2011 through 2014.
The 2015 front sits on a disputed seam. One listing places 513394 starting in 2015, another starts it in 2016, so match the number the old part carries.
Year by year
A 2011 Lincoln MKX wheel bearing repeats through 2014: rear 513275, front undocumented. Nothing changes in those four years.
2015 keeps the same rear, 513275. The 2015 front is where a lookup will show 513394, though whether that listing truly starts in 2015 or 2016 depends on which catalog is asked.
Two MKX generations, two parts lists
The first generation MKX ran 2007 to 2010 with its own front and rear numbers. See the 2007 to 2010 Lincoln MKX page for that lineup.
Nothing from the earlier truck fits this one. Treat 2011 to 2015 as its own set.
Diagnosing a Lincoln MKX wheel bearing
- Start with the rear. 513275 is documented and consistent across all five years. It is the easiest lookup on this truck.
- Listen for a hum on turns. A failing bearing often gets louder in corners. This page explains why.
- Compare against tire noise. Cupped tires can mimic the same growl. Use this comparison guide to rule them out.
- Watch the ABS light on the front. A damaged sensor ring can trip it even when the hub itself is fine. See this page for the connection.
- Pull the old hub for any front year. With 2011 to 2014 undocumented and 2015 disputed, the old hub assembly is the surest match.
