What makes you think that picture shows a product approved for the MT-82?

I don't think it is approved for the MT82, since the updated Ford fluid specifies WSD-M2C200-D2 fluid, not the M2C936A spec'd on the back of that bottle.

When I talked with Redline last spring they said that they did not make a fluid that meets the current spec for the MT82. MTL met the original spec, but not the revised spec. The bottle that you have looks like it meets an older spec as well.

Its meets 'a' ford/getrag dual clutch fluid ford spec. Right.? That's, in my book, 'closer' than the other redlines, purple stuff or BG's...?. It's less than half the price of Ford's DCT+XL-18, and the stuff feels very good. YMMV. We're getting closer, right.?. Just trying to help ....

While searching deeper the best I can tell this redline DCTF meets Ford dual clutch auto trans Ford getrag cert. Thats what ford says to use, DCT right, in their mt82, only in their motorcraft brand. Stands to reason thats why Redline DCTF works as well as it does, cause it is a Good fit for our gearbox.?...happy trails

It's the original spec for the original fluid in the DCT's in the Focus and Fiesta.
That's been replaced by the new XT-11-QDC fluid which now carries the M2C200-D2 spec.
