Bentley Continental, Azure
Automatic transmission fluid capacity & service interval
Bentley Continental and Azure models require 4,25 liters of automatic transmission fluid. Service intervals occur every 25000 km or 12 months. The data covers 3 configurations.
The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.
| Type | Specifications |
|---|---|
| Azure (1994-2003) |
|
| Continental R/S/T (1991-2003) |

| Continental (1986-1994) |

Additional Notes
- The Bentley Azure (1994-2003), Continental (1986-1994), and Continental R/S/T (1991-2003) all share an automatic transmission fluid capacity of 4.25 liters, which is consistent with a service fill figure rather than a full overhaul or dry-fill capacity.
- A service fill capacity reflects the amount of fluid needed when draining and refilling during routine maintenance, not the total system volume, which is typically higher when the torque converter is fully emptied.
- The Azure carries a 4.25-liter automatic transmission fluid capacity under normal use conditions, paired with a change interval of 25,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first.
- The Continental (1986-1994) shares the same 4.25-liter capacity and 25,000 km/12-month interval as the Azure, indicating a common transmission servicing specification across these two distinct model lines despite their different production periods.
- The Continental R/S/T (1991-2003) also carries the 4.25-liter service fill and the 25,000 km/12-month change interval under normal use, applying uniformly across the R, S, and T variants grouped within that specification entry.
- The 12-month time-based interval alongside the 25,000 km mileage threshold means fluid replacement is due when either limit is reached first, which is a standard dual-trigger servicing approach for vehicles that may accumulate low annual mileage.
