Post by: scubaman on May 02, 2016, 05:20:55 PM
I hope that as Mazda owners that if your car calls for Mazda M-V (M5) ATF fluid that you do NOT, i repeat do NOT use Mercon V fluid.

Mazda M-V (M5)= Idemitsu Type M= Ford FNR5 fluid

Straight from service bulletin Bulletin No: 05-005/08:

NOTE:
• ATF M-V (TYPE M5) IS NOT THE SAME FLUID AS MERCON®V ATF.
• ATF M-V (TYPE M5) HAS A GREATER VISCOSITY THAN MERCON®V ATF IN LOW TEMPERATURES.

• ATF M-V (TYPE M5) HAS A GREATER ANTI-JUDDER SPECIFICATION THAN MERCON®V ATF.
CAUTION:
• USING ATF OTHER THAN ATF M-V (TYPE M5) IN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS
DESIGNED TO USE ATF M-V (TYPE M5) MAY CAUSE SHIFT QUALITY COMPLAINTS.
• USING ATF OTHER THAN MERCON®V IN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS DESIGNED TO
USE MERCON®V MAY CAUSE TRANSMISSION DAMAGE.
