Bentley T

Automatic transmission fluid capacity & service interval

Bentley T uses automatic transmission fluid with a capacity of 13,6 liters. Service intervals include checking at 10000 km and changing at 20000 km. The data covers 2 configurations.

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

Additional Notes

  • The Bentley T automatic transmission carries a fluid capacity of 13.6 liters across both the pre-SRH 6001 (1965-1969) and post-SRH 6001 (1969-1977) configurations. A capacity at this level typically reflects a full system fill, accounting for the torque converter, valve body, and transmission pan combined rather than a drain-and-fill service quantity alone.
  • The serial number breakpoint at SRH 6001 serves as the dividing line between the two defined configurations, placing the transition within the 1969 model year. Despite representing distinct build variants, both share identical fluid capacity and service interval figures.
  • A check interval of 10,000 km is specified for both configurations under normal use conditions. At that mileage point, fluid level is verified without a full drain, allowing early detection of leaks or consumption between full change cycles.
  • The change interval is set at 20,000 km for both variants under normal use conditions, meaning a complete fluid replacement is due at twice the frequency of the check interval. This staggered schedule reflects a maintenance approach where monitoring precedes replacement.
