Austin Gipsy

Manual transmission fluid capacity & service interval

Austin Gipsy manual transmission fluid capacity ranges from 2,2 to 2,4 liters. Service intervals include checking at 1600 km or 5000 km/3 months and changing at 10000 km or 20000 km/12 months. The data covers 3 configurations.

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

Additional Notes

  • The Austin Gipsy transaxle manual fluid capacity varies depending on whether a tyre pump is fitted. The G4M10/15 configuration holds 2.2 liters in standard form, rising to 2.4 liters when equipped with a tyre pump, reflecting the additional volume required to lubricate the pump mechanism integrated into the unit.
  • The G2M10/15 (1958-1963) carries a 2.3-liter transaxle capacity, which falls between the two G4M10/15 values and represents a single fixed fill regardless of ancillary equipment.
  • A check interval of 1,600 km applies to the G2M10/15, a notably short distance that reflects early-production service practices where frequent inspection was standard for off-road transaxle units.
  • The G4M10/15 petrol and diesel variants share an identical check interval of 5,000 km or 3 months under normal use conditions, with the dual-format interval indicating that whichever threshold is reached first would govern the service timing.
  • The G2M10/15 change interval of 10,000 km stands at half the 20,000 km interval specified for the G4M10/15 configurations, pointing to a meaningful revision in fluid life expectations between the two generation ranges.
  • The G4M10/15 change interval carries a time-based limit of 12 months alongside the 20,000 km distance figure, whereas the G2M10/15 specification lists only a distance-based change interval with no corresponding time limit.
  • Both the petrol G4M10/15 and the Diesel G4M10/15 (1964-1968) share identical capacity and interval specifications, indicating the transaxle assembly was common across those two engine variants within the same production period.
