I have a question about Transmission Fluid. I will be having a transmission flush and filter change some time in October and I have 3 different types of fluid to go with. I would like opinions.
1) Valvoline Mercon V
2) Valvoline High Mileage MERC/DEX
3) Merc V from the Ford Dealership (ridiculously expensive)
What should I go with? The vehicle has approx 195000KMs and has no known transmission problems. I bought this car 2002 Taurus DOHC from my mom several years ago. I do not believe she ever had any transmission fluid changes (drain and filter) before. The fluid is starting to look a little darker than what I would like, hence I am having a pro preform a flush and filter change.
