Additional Notes
- Across all Alfa Romeo Giulietta variants in the 750 and 101 series, manual transmission fluid capacity falls into one of two values: 1.5 liters or 1.4 liters. These figures represent service fill quantities, meaning the amount of fluid required during a routine drain-and-refill, rather than a full overhaul or assembly fill.
- The 1.5-liter capacity applies to the Giulietta Berlina, Promiscua, Spider, Sprint, and both TI generations, as well as the Sprint from 1954-1962. A slightly smaller 1.4-liter capacity is specified for the higher-performance Veloce and coachbuilt variants.
- The Giulietta SS (Sprint Speciale) from 1957-1962 and the SZ (Sprint Zagato) from 1957-1960 both carry the 1.4-liter specification, placing them in the same capacity group as the Veloce variants despite their distinct body styles and production origins.
- The Spider Veloce (1956-1962) and Sprint Veloce (1956-1962) share the 1.4-liter transmission fluid capacity. The standard Spider and Sprint, by contrast, are specified at 1.5 liters, indicating a difference in transmission unit between the standard and Veloce configurations.
- All variants across the entire 1954-1962 range share an identical service interval structure under normal use conditions: a fluid level check every 4,000 km or 6 months, and a full fluid change every 8,000 km or 12 months. Whichever threshold is reached first would govern the service action.
- The 8,000 km or 12-month change interval was a relatively short cycle by later automotive standards, consistent with mid-20th century service practices when fluid formulations and transmission sealing technology required more frequent maintenance attention.
- The Giulietta TI appears across two separate year ranges, 1957-1961 and 1961-1962, both specifying 1.5 liters with identical check and change intervals under normal use. The capacity and service schedule remained unchanged across the transition between those production periods.
- The check interval of 4,000 km or 6 months, set at half the change interval, reflects a monitoring step intended to detect fluid loss or contamination between full service events rather than to trigger a fluid replacement on its own.
