I have purchased a used 2005 Vanden Plas and am researching the fluid types and quantities to use. Is the below information correct?

• Transmission Fluid for ZF 6HP26 : Lifeguard 6 , (Ford Motorcraft Mercon SP and Shell Spirax S4 ATF MSP are identical to Lifeguard 6). For drain and fill, you need 5.5 liters / 5.8 quarts. For complete flush, you need 9.5 liters / 10 quarts.
