Additional Notes

  • The Ford Maverick / Escape 2.3 16V (2004-2007) carries a transaxle automatic transmission fluid capacity of 9.5 liters, a figure consistent with a full system fill rather than a simple drain-and-refill service, which typically recovers only a portion of total fluid volume.
  • The 3.0 V6 in its 2000-2003 form holds 9.6 liters in the automatic transaxle, placing it marginally above the 9.5-liter figure shared by the other two configurations listed.
  • From 2003 onward, the 3.0 V6 transaxle automatic capacity aligns with the 9.5-liter figure, representing a 0.1-liter reduction compared to the earlier 2000-2003 V6 specification.
  • All three configurations carry a normal use condition designation, meaning the stated 9.5- or 9.6-liter capacities apply under standard operating circumstances rather than severe-duty cycles.
  • The 2.3 16V and the post-2003 3.0 V6 share an identical 9.5-liter transaxle capacity despite differing in engine displacement and cylinder count, indicating the automatic transaxle unit itself rather than the engine configuration governs fluid volume in those cases.
  • A capacity in the 9.5-9.6 liter range for an automatic transaxle reflects a combined sump and torque converter fill, as the converter alone can account for several liters within the total system volume.
