Additional Notes
- The Acura TL UA6/UA7 manual transaxle carries a dry fill capacity of 2.5 liters across all three configurations covered in the 2004-2008 model range, meaning a fully drained and disassembled unit requires the full 2.5 liters to reach proper operating level.
- Service fill capacity, which accounts for fluid retained in the transaxle during a routine drain-and-refill, is lower than the dry fill figure in every configuration listed, reflecting the volume that remains in passages and cavities even after draining.
- The 3.2-liter variant for 2004-2005 carries a service fill capacity of 2.2 liters, while the same 3.2-liter engine paired with the manual transaxle in 2006-2008 shows a slightly reduced service fill of 2.1 liters, a difference of 0.1 liter between the two model year groupings.
- The TL 3.5 Type-S for 2007-2008 shares the 2.1-liter service fill figure with the 3.2-liter variant of the same years, despite being a different engine displacement and trim level.
- All three configurations share an identical dry fill capacity of 2.5 liters, indicating the physical transaxle housing volume is consistent across the 3.2 and 3.5 engine pairings within the UA6/UA7 generation.
- The gap between dry fill and service fill ranges from 0.3 liters in the 2004-2005 3.2-liter configuration to 0.4 liters in both the 2006-2008 3.2-liter and 2007-2008 3.5 Type-S configurations, representing the residual fluid volume that a standard service procedure does not displace.
- All specifications listed apply under normal use conditions, meaning the capacities and service procedures reflected in the data correspond to standard operating environments rather than severe-duty cycles.
