Maintenance and Specifications BRAKE/CLUTCH FLUID Brake and clutch systems are supplied from the same reservoir. The fluid level will drop slowly as the brakes wear, and will rise when the brake components are replaced. Fluid levels between the "MIN" and "MAX" lines are within the normal operating range; there is no need to add fluid. If the fluid levels are outside of the normal operating range the performance of the system could be compromised; seek service from your authorized dealer immediately. TRANSMISSION FLUID Checking automatic transmission fluid The 5R55S transmission does not have a transmission fluid dipstick. Refer to your scheduled maintenance information for scheduled intervals for fluid checks and changes. Your transmission does not consume fluid. However, the fluid level should be checked if the transmission is not working properly, i.e., if the transmission slips or shifts slowly or if you notice some sign of fluid leakage. Transmission fluid should be checked and, if required, fluid should be added by an authorized dealer. Before adding any fluid, make sure the correct type is used. Use only MERCON V automatic transmission fluid. The type of fluid used is indicated on the transmission fluid pan, extension housing. Refer to Maintenance product specifications and capacities in this chapter. 267 2008 05+ Mustang (197) Owners Guide (post-2002-fmt) USA (fus)
