In the 2005 Ford Escape 3.0 L V6, the type of transmission fluid you use will depend on whether it is a manual or automatic transmission. For manual transmissions, it is recommended to use Motorcraft SAE 75W-90 API GL-4 Gear Oil, with a fluid capacity ranging from 2.4 to 2.5 quarts. Automatic transmissions, on the other hand, work best with Motorcraft MERCON ATF and can hold up to 10.2 quarts. It is important to regularly check the transmission fluid level while the vehicle is operating at its normal temperature. Ensure that the fluid level falls within the designated crosshatched zone; if it is below, add more fluid to reach the appropriate range. Avoid overfilling the transmission fluid as this may cause damage to the transmission system.
