Little update: I need new trans fluid, it was nearly black. Also, the drain plug was full of metal shavings, I'll post a picture later. So here's the dilemma; the chiltons manual says to use mercon for vehicles earlier than 2010. But, apparently mercon was no longer licensed by ford in about 2007 and so it's said to use mercon v, but on that same not it's said that using mercon v in a transmission that requires mercon will cause damage to the transmission....? Which to use?
