I just picked up a ford TSB that states

*portions omitted*

"the new fluid (XT-M5-QS(1 L/quart)) is fully compatable wit hearlier (1995-2000 model year) transaxles and fluid. It is recomended that this new synthetic fluid(XT-M5-QS(1 L/quart)) be used exclusively in all model year MTX-75 transaxles when filling a full drqained unit, or when toppin off fluid level."

one question, there is no mentiuon of a "friction modifier", and can't recall what i all read.

is it not needed as opposed to what was stated earlier??

Syncromesh works perfectly as is while Ford's needs the LSD additive. Advantage Syncromesh.








Use some reason: Ford does NOT say to use FM with the honey. The TSB calls for Ford Honey straight up. Someone else is suggesting you might want to use FM.

You decide: follow Ford's official documenatation or a car enthusiasts advice.

As of this posting, there is no such thing as a product that says "meets or excedes specificates for Ford Honey". Which is the fluid Ford says should be used in this transmission. So I'm going to use Ford Honey and be cool with it.
