Mercon V

Anybody have any info on this? All I've ever seen is don't use Mercon v in the EO4D.

http://www.intellidog.com/dieselmann/bulletin1.htm

Mercon V Use in Mercon Transmissions:
Effective 6-29-4, Ford is discontinuing Mercon ATF licensing and manufacturing. Mercon V is now approved for use in all transmissions specifying Mercon. This includes both the E4OD and 4R100 automatics and the ZF six-speed manual, as well as the transfer cases. Once exsisting stocks of Mercon is depleted it will no longer be available. Transmissions that specify Mercon V should still use only that fluid. The ZF five-speed will still use synthetic Mercon. TSB 06-14-4.

I've used MerconV in the past without trouble, but some will argue this to death.
This is the full test version. http://www.alldata.com/tsb/Ford/1153...4-4/index.html

Although, I haven't heard about the change in stance. I have also used Mercon V in my E4OD. Makes sense to me.

I guess if they quit making Mercon there won't be any choice.
