The 2000 Ford Mustang uses Mercon V fluid for its transmission, which has a capacity of 4 quarts. The automatic transmission fluid should be changed at 150,000 miles, along with flushing the system and replacing the filter. Warning signs indicating the need for a fluid change include slipping or jerky gear shifts, delayed acceleration, and rough transitions between gears. The cost of having the fluid changed by a dealer or mechanic typically ranges from $90 to $260. Neglecting to change the transmission fluid can lead to inadequate lubrication and poor heat dispersion, resulting in increased wear on transmission components.
