Mercon is a brand name used by Ford Motor Company to describe their automatic transmission fluid. The original Mercon was roughly equivalent and interchangeable with Dexron. MerconV is a synthetic fluid, formulated for the requirements of later model transmissions. MerconV exceeds the specifications of Mercon and can be used to replace it.
