Most modern oils these days are pretty good...they don't sell if they're crap. 5W30 is the oil Ford recommend for the tranny...I use 10w40 full synthetic in my tranny here in Aus due to our silly temperatures in summer, but I'm sure 5w30 would be fine too. I found the oil pressure was a tad lower than I would like @ idle in the middle of summer with 5w30...so a switch to 10w40 had my pressure back to something more reasonable....I only noticed because I fitted an oil pressure gauge...if I didn't have one, I'd be none the wiser..
