Checking And Adding Manual Transmission Fluid - Ford 2003 Mustang Owner's Manual

Maintenance and Specifications
An overfill condition of transmission fluid may
cause shift and/or engagement concerns and/or
possible damage.
Do not use supplemental transmission fluid
additives, treatments or cleaning agents. The use of
these materials may affect transmission operation
and result in damage to internal transmission
components.

Checking and adding manual transmission fluid

(if equipped)
1. Clean the filler plug.
2. Remove the filler
plug and inspect the
fluid level.
3. Note: There are two different manual
transmissions used in this vehicle and they have
different fluid levels. For vehicles equipped with a
V6 engine and Cobra the correct manual
transmission fill level is at the lower edge of the
filler hole. For vehicles equipped with a V8 engine
(except Cobra) the correct manual transmission fill
level is 1.3 cm (1/2 inch) below the edge of the filler
hole.
