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.
