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 MERCONV type fluids are not interchangeable.

DO NOT mix MERCON

and MERCONV. Use of a transmission

fluid that indicates dual usage (MERCON

and MERCONV) 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.
