Hello,
2006 Ford Explorer EB v6. I need to change my differential and transfer case fluid and will be doing this for the first time (previously done by Ford mechanics). In checking the manual, it says I need 75w150 for the rear and 80w90 for the front. It also says I need Mercon (no "V") for the transfer case. However, when I check back maintenance invoices from the dealer, it shows they only used 75w150 for both front and rear (I don't see 80w90 listed) and it shows they used Mercon-V for the transfer case. Is this a problem? Should i stick with what the manual states or go with what the dear techs used?
Thanks in advance!
