Additional Notes

  • The rear differential on the Mercury Montego 3.0 V6 24V 4WD holds 0.7 liter of fluid, a relatively small capacity consistent with a compact rear differential unit rather than a larger axle assembly requiring a full overhaul fill.
  • The 48,000 km inspection interval for the rear differential fluid on the 2004-2007 Montego 3.0 V6 24V 4WD reflects a routine check cycle, meaning the fluid level and condition are assessed at that mileage without a mandatory drain and refill.
  • The change interval of 240,000 km applies under normal use conditions, placing the rear differential fluid drain and refill at a very extended mileage point compared to many other drivetrain fluids, which typically see shorter replacement cycles.
  • The normal use condition tied to the 240,000 km change interval means the specification assumes standard driving patterns, excluding severe-duty scenarios such as frequent towing, off-road operation, or extreme temperature exposure.
