Additional Notes
- The Mercury Capri carries an automatic transaxle fluid capacity of 5.8 liters, a figure that reflects a full system fill rather than a simple drain-and-refill service, since a complete overhaul or dry fill typically requires more fluid than a partial exchange.
- Under severe use conditions, the automatic transaxle calls for a fluid change at 35,000 km intervals, paired with the same 5.8-liter capacity.
- The normal use condition row carries no change interval in the specifications, only the 5.8-liter capacity figure, while the severe use row is the sole entry that pairs a mileage interval with that capacity.
- The 35,000 km severe-use interval is notably shorter than what many automatic transmission service schedules list for normal driving, reflecting the added thermal and mechanical stress associated with severe operating conditions such as frequent towing, stop-and-go traffic, or high-temperature environments.
