Ford Genuine XT-5-5QM MERCON-V Automatic Transmission and Power Steering Fluid - 5 Quart

It’s Motorcraft so works as expected. Good purchase price.

Mercon V is the most common type of Ford Automatic transmission fluid (ATF) used in earlier year model Fords, it is very much like Dexron III. Dyed with Red color to detect leaks, It is a fully synthetic ATF. Motorcraft MERCON V (Actually a Roman numeral 5 not "Vee" as most people think) is a premium-quality automatic transmission fluid. Formulated & Recommended by Ford Motor Company for use in Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles that require either MERCON V or the old type MERCON type fluid. I did some research and found that FORD does not make MERCON anymore as suggested in the owner's guide for 2006 Ford Escape Hybrid and there were Technical Service Bulletin (TSBs) released indicating "MERCON V" as the replacement transmission fluid. The Ford (TSB) 06-14-04 indicates that Mercon "V" is to replace the original Mercon fluid. The vehicle uses 5.3 quarts (5.0L) and this 5 Quart jug is perfect and exact quantity needed to replace the factory fluid. Please note: Warning! Do not use this in Transfer cases. or put them inside PTUs. Using any transmission fluid other than those that meet the recommended specification may cause internal transaxle damage. Do NOT use Motorcraft MERCON CVT (blue) ATF in 2006 ford escape hybrids. You need to use the "RED" color fluid. This Ford 2006 escape hybrid vehicle uses only prior generation Motorcraft MERCON ATF (Unavailable) installed from factory and can be substituted with the new Mercon V (The product reviewed here) Pricing on Amazon is competitive and if you are prime member it gets delivered to your door in couple of days what is there to complain? Product reviewed here is Genuine ATF shipped and sold by Amazon. Rating the product with five stars!

This is the power steering fluid for my vehicle. After flushing out my old fluid and putting this in, my car's handling is noticably better. You will need a funnel, but that was my only problem. The jug is newer looking then the jug shown, and it is rugged so you don't have to worry about it breaking and spilling in shipping.

real deal

It is a bit pricey

Exactly what it says it is. Arrived in a timely manner with no problems.

Ok, I’ve been a car guy my entire life, working on my own cars keeping them running. I used this stuff on my 2003 trailblazer with the 4.2 inline 6. It has 192k miles on it. And cold start it had a loud lifter tap and a little bit of piston slap as well until it warmed up. The lifter tap stayed (quieter) but was still there with the engine warm. Yesterday morning I changed the oil again. Did the double dose (used the 16oz can). And first start after oil change the cold start tap was 90% gone. Drove it last night and when I got home it was completely quiet at idle warm. This stuff absolutely quieted 90% of the cold start lifter noise, and completely 100% quieted down warm lifter tick. It works amazing and I’ve always been skeptical. Especially something I found on instagram reels. But try it. It really does help a lot, it is expensive but I’ll keep using it with the results. To add, it may be a placebo affect from the lifter tick going away. But throttle response seems improved, and it seems to have gained some power. Not a ton, but noticeable enough to make you happy after your first drive trying this Prolube changed shipping to Amazon, from usps priority on this platform. your better off going to their site and purchasing direct, rather then pay extra to Amazon for shipping for Amazon to not get it in time
