Renault MI, MIH

Automatic transmission fluid capacity & service interval

Renault MI and MIH models require automatic transmission fluid with a capacity of 105 liters. Service intervals include checking every 200 hours and changing every 800 hours or 12 months. The data covers 2 configurations.

The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

TypeSpecifications
  • 900 MIH (1993-1998)
  • Hydrostatic/hydraulic system
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 105 liter
  • Check 200 hours
  • Change 800 hours/ 12 months
  • 904 MIH (1993-1998)
  • Hydrostatic/hydraulic system
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 105 liter
  • Check 200 hours
  • Change 800 hours/ 12 months

Additional Notes

  • The Renault MI and MIH series covers the 900 MIH and 904 MIH configurations for the 1993-1998 model years, both sharing identical fluid capacity and service interval specifications for the transmission and hydrostatic/hydraulic system.
  • A fluid capacity of 105 liters applies to both the 900 MIH and 904 MIH, a figure that reflects the combined volume of the transmission and hydrostatic/hydraulic circuit rather than a simple gearbox fill alone.
  • The 105-liter capacity is notably large, consistent with integrated hydrostatic drive systems found in agricultural or industrial machinery, where hydraulic fluid serves multiple functions across the drivetrain simultaneously.
  • A check interval of 200 hours is specified under normal use conditions for both configurations, meaning fluid level and condition are to be verified at that operating hour threshold.
  • The change interval for both the 900 MIH and 904 MIH is set at 800 hours or 12 months under normal use, whichever comes first, combining an hour-based and calendar-based threshold in a dual-trigger format.
  • The 12-month calendar limit within the change interval accounts for fluid degradation over time regardless of machine usage, recognizing that low-hour operation does not prevent age-related fluid breakdown.
  • The ratio between the check interval and the change interval is 1:4, meaning four fluid level checks are expected to occur within a single full change cycle for each configuration.
