of transmission fluid and fluid level should be set by the indication on
the dipstick’s normal operating range.
3Add the coolant type originally equipped in your vehicle.
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.
Service refill capacities are determined by filling the rear axle 23mm
(0.9 inch) below the bottom of the filler hole.
5Add 118 ml (4 oz.) of Additive Friction Modifier XL-3 (or equivalent)
meeting Ford specification EST-M2C118–A for complete refill of Limited
Slip axles. For complete refills, fill using the Additive Friction Modifier
first.
6Use of synthetic or synthetic blend motor oil is not mandatory. Engine
oil need only meet the requirements of Ford specification
WSS-M2C153–H and the API Certification mark.
