Additional Notes

  • The BAIC Senova BJ80 automatic transmission is listed with two distinct capacity figures across all three engine variants: 11 liters and 8.5 liters.
  • The 11-liter figure represents a full overhaul or dry fill capacity, reflecting the total fluid volume the transmission holds when completely empty, including the torque converter and all internal passages.
  • The 8.5-liter figure represents a service fill capacity, which is the amount of fluid required during a routine drain-and-refill procedure where residual fluid remains in the torque converter and valve body.
  • All three engine variants — rated at 170 kW, 184 kW, and 206 kW — share identical automatic transmission fluid capacities of 11 liters and 8.5 liters, indicating a common transmission unit across the 2023 BJ80 powertrain lineup.
  • All capacity entries carry a normal use condition, meaning the specified volumes apply to standard operating circumstances rather than severe-duty or first-change-only scenarios.
  • The difference of 2.5 liters between the overhaul fill and the service fill is a practical consideration during maintenance, as underfilling to 8.5 liters when performing a dry build would leave the transmission significantly short of its full operating volume.
