Additional Notes

  • Across all variants of the Audi 60/72/75/80/90 F103 series, the manual transaxle fluid capacity is uniformly 2 liters. A consistent capacity across every configuration in a lineup typically reflects a shared transmission unit rather than variant-specific gearboxes.
  • The transaxle layout noted for all rows combines the gearbox and final drive into a single housing. A 2-liter fill for such a combined unit is a moderate volume, consistent with compact transaxle designs of the era.
  • Under normal use conditions, a fluid level check is specified at every 10,000 km, while a full fluid change is required at 30,000 km. The separation of check and change intervals reflects standard practice for monitoring fluid condition and level between full service events.
  • An initial service change is specified at 500 km for every variant in the lineup. A break-in drain at such a short interval is intended to remove metal particles generated during the wear-in of new transmission components, which accumulate rapidly in early operation.
  • The initial service specification carries no check interval, only a change at 500 km. After that first drain, the normal schedule of checks at 10,000 km and changes at 30,000 km applies.
  • The 60-series appears in two distinct output variants: 40 kW and 48 kW Export, both produced from 1968-1972. Despite the difference in power output and market designation, both share identical transaxle fluid capacity and service intervals.
  • The 72 variant covers the years 1965-1969, making it among the earliest models in the F103 range represented in these specifications. The 500 km initial service interval applies equally to these earlier production years.
  • The Super 90 spans the widest production window among the listed variants, running from 1966-1972, and carries the same 2-liter transaxle capacity and 30,000 km change interval as all other models in the series.
