2009 Mercury Mariner Questions & Answers

  • How much can my Mercury tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. Defying your Mariner towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Mariner is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my Mariner's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Caring for your Mercury Mariner’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed.
