Why did Ford stop making the C-Max?
Ford is dropping the Grand C-Max, shown, because of a sharp drop in demand as customers switch to SUVs and crossovers. Ford confirmed it will end production of its C-Max minivan at its factory in Saarlouis, Germany, but said the plant will stay open with further investment in the Focus car that is also built there.

What does C-Max stand for?
Cmax is the maximum (or peak) serum concentration that a drug achieves in a specified compartment or test area of the body after the drug has been administered and before the administration of a second dose. It is a standard measurement in pharmacokinetics.
Is dexron and Mercon transmission fluid the same?
In short, the answer is no, and it’s why you want to use an OE approved fluid specific to your car. Dexron fluids are used by GM. Ford and Mazda designed their transmissions for Mercon. Other import brands like Honda (DW-1) and Toyota (ATF Type-T) have their own specific fluid too.
What Fords use Type F transmission fluid?
FORD TYPE F AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID
Phillips 66® Type F ATF is specifically designed for use in automatic transmissions in passenger cars and light trucks manufactured by Ford Motor Company prior to 1977, and in many 1977-1981 models.
Is Mercon V and LV the same?
It is for all 2008 and newer Ford vehicles. Mercon V is not compatible with Mercon LV. I believe the LV is much thinner, if your car originally required V but the spec has been updated to LV I would stick with mercon V, as the thinner fluid could cause issues in transmissions made for thicker fluids.
What kind of transmission fluid does a Ford Cmax take?
Automatic transmissions that require Motorcraft MERCON LV transmission fluid should only use Motorcraft MERCON LV transmission fluid.
Does it matter what transmission fluid I use?
The type of transmission fluid you should use depends upon the make, model and year of your vehicle. For example, many General Motor cars will require a DEXRON fluid and Ford cars commonly specify a MERCON fluid. Always follow the vehicle manufacturer recommendation for proper fluid use and change interval.
