Question:

Is the Mercon LV a synthetic transmission fluid? If not is there a synthetic that can be used in its place?

Thanks for posting, but for the Ecoboost, the Owner's manual specifies 5w-30 only. I run 0w-30 in the winter at my own discretion, partly because Mobil 1 certifies it as a replacement for 5w-30. I have yet to find a 10w-30 that is certified as a replacement for 5w-30. I know some people are running 10w and some are even running 15w-40, but they do that knowing the risks.

Found on pdf page 382: (also found in the table on page 415).

As you note ... All this and MORE can be found in the owner's manual.

DOH!

I have always used OEM filters ( you can find some of my fuel filter posts on some diesel forums) and Mobil 1 in all my vehicles ( except motorcycles) since the 80s...that's a far back as I can remember seeing Mobil 1. Lol.

In my area, winter weights are irrelevant, so the thinner (within recommendations) the better.

Yes Mercon LV is synthetic.
I I would stick with Mercon LV and not cheap out to an aftermarket.


ONLY Use Oem Filters. No aftermarket filter can match the OEM quality filters.
I alwayse use OEM filters in my Vehicles, or who ever makes the OEM filters, I use their brand.
For example I use Racor Filters for the 6.0L diesel, Racor makes the OEM motrocraft oil filter and the OEM Fuel Filters.
