transmission fluid capacity. The manual says 7.6pts for a manual M5OD R2, but i found that using the whole 2 quarts (minus a little spillage) was much better. At 7.6pts, the tranny wouldnt shift into any gear at stand still. I had to turn off the engine. I topped it off by parking on a hill, and now it shifts.
The correct manual transmission oil from Ford is Finis (part) no. 1256862 for a 1 litre bottle, is grade 70W-75W- you will need at least 3 litres- and meets Ford spec N052171-VX00. This is NOT the same oil as used by most Ford manual transmissions (being for use in a VW 'box), so make sure you've got the right stuff!
For 2009 Galaxy Second generation (MK3) Ford recommends to use: WSS-M2C924-A automatic transmission fluids. To select the right automatic transmission fluid see the table below.
