Don't think so. Pretty sure the 5r110 is SP only.

Yes you can mix. The SP is what originally was used in the 5R110...but a couple years ago they announced that the LV fluid was gonna replace the SP...and that they are both compatible with one another and can be mixed. Some dealers sell both the LV and SP....some only sell and use the new LV fluid. If you were to have a tranny service done...the fluid would be LV not SP.

I had some LV on my shelf. Went to my dealer yesterday for a case and he gave me SP. :shrug:

they probably sold you SP because they had old inventory that costs more than LV

If your vehicle came with lv you have to use lv you can not use sp but if it came with sp you can use ether.

both are still available but the SP is about a $1 per qt higher. and either should work fine

There's a 20 page thread over on the .org going on right now that Ford MIGHT and I stress might have changed their minds about LV working in the torque shift.
