So I bought a used camry with 107,000 miles and mistakenly bought mercon 5 instead of the recommended valvoline multivehicle. I asked the worker at advanced Auto parts if valvoline mercon 5 was the right fluid, and she asked me if it was an automatic transmission. I said yes, so she said I'd be good. After pouring about a half a cup of the fluid in I stopped and looked at the bottle which read "recommended for ford vehicles". I stopped pouring and panicked. So, I wanted to know if mercon 5 is okay for my 07 camry. And if not, is a small amount enough to cause significant damage?
