Some transmission fluids may be labeled as dual usage, such as
MERCON
and MERCON V. These dual usage fluids are not to be used
in an automatic transmission that requires use of the MERCON
type
fluid. However, these dual usage fluids may be used in transmissions that
require the MERCON
V type fluid.
MERCON
and MERCON V type fluids are not interchangeable.
DO NOT mix MERCON
and MERCON V. Use of a transmission
fluid that indicates dual usage (MERCON
and MERCON V) in
an automatic transmission application requiring MERCON
may
cause transmission damage. Use of any fluid other than the
recommended fluid may cause transmission damage.
2
Indicates only approximate dry-fill capacity. Some applications may vary
based on cooler size and if equipped with an in-tank cooler. The amount
of transmission fluid and fluid level should be set by the indication on
the dipstick’s normal operating range.
3
Add the coolant type originally equipped in your vehicle.
4
Your vehicle’s rear axle is filled with a synthetic rear axle lubricant and
is considered lubricated for life. These lubricants are not to be checked
or changed unless a leak is suspected, service is required or the axle has
been submerged in water. The axle lubricant should be changed any time
the axle has been submerged in water.
5
Add 4 oz. (118 ml) of Additive Friction Modifier XL-3 (or equivalent)
for complete refill of Limited Slip axles. For complete refills, fill using the
Additive Friction Modifier first.
6
Use of synthetic or synthetic blend motor oil is not mandatory. Engine
oil need only meet the requirements of Ford specification
WSS-M2C930-A and the API Certification mark.
