Additional Notes
- The Mercury Monterey 4.2 V6 carries an automatic transaxle fluid capacity of 13 liters, which reflects a full system fill rather than a simple drain-and-refill service quantity.
- Under normal use conditions, the automatic transaxle fluid change interval is set at 48,000 km, applying uniformly across the 2004-2007 model years.
- A fluid level check interval of every 8,000 km or 6 months is specified alongside the change interval, meaning inspection frequency is considerably more frequent than full fluid replacement.
- The 13-liter capacity figure for the Mercury Monterey 4.2 V6 transaxle is notably substantial, consistent with the fluid volume required by a front-wheel-drive minivan transaxle that integrates the transmission and differential into a single housing.
- The normal use designation tied to the 48,000 km change interval indicates operating conditions without the added stress of towing, extreme temperatures, or frequent stop-and-go driving that would otherwise shorten service cycles.
