A4OD Fluid Types
OK, I have a 97 F150 with the E4OD tranny and am about to change the fluid and filter. My question is this.. should I use MerconIII or V? Its a 97 model 5.4 with 63,000 on it. Cost of the fluid is not a factor I just want it right

There are two types of fluuid, MERCON and MERCON V. The E4OD requires MERCON, not MERCON V.
Just to muddy the waters, there is a new MERCON SP fluid for the new TorqShift 5 speed automatic in the diesel trucks. That is not compatible with any older transmission.
