1Ensure the correct automatic transmission fluid is used for a specific
application. Check the container to verify the fluid is MERCONt
approved. Transmission fluid requirements are indicated on the dipstick
handle. Refer to the Scheduled Maintenance Guide.
Do NOT use any non-approved automatic transmission fluid for an
application specifying MERCONt. Use of a non-approved fluid may cause
internal transmission component damage.
2Indicates 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.
3Use Ford Premium Engine Coolant (green in color). DO NOT USE Ford
Extended Life Engine Coolant (orange in color). Refer toAdding engine
coolant, in the Maintenance and Care chapter.
4Your 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. Add 118 ml (4 oz.) of additive
friction modifier C8AZ-19B546±A, Ford specification EST-M2C118±A for
complete refill of Traction-Lok axles.
Service refill capacities are determined by filling the rear axle 6 mm to
14 mm (1/4 inch to 9/16 inch) below the bottom of the filler hole.

1Refer to the dipstick for the type of transmission fluid required. Some
fluid labels may indicate dual usage such as MERCONtand MERCON
Vt. These dual usage fluids are not to be used in transmissions that use
only the MERCONttype fluid. These dual usage fluids may be used in
transmissions that require MERCONtV use.
Using a transmission fluid that indicates a dual usage (MERCONtand
MERCON Vt) in a transmission application requiring MERCONtmay
cause transmission damage. Use of any fluid other than the
recommended fluid may cause transmission damage.
2Add 118 ml (4 oz.) of EST-M2C118±A (friction modifier Part No.
C8AZ-19B546±A) for complete refill of Ford Traction-Lok rear axles.
