Manual transmission fluid capacity & service interval

BMW 2 series, G42 / G87 (EU) manual transmission fluid has a capacity of 1.6 liter. The data covers 2 configurations.

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

TypeSpecifications
M2 (353 kW) PF (2024- )
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 1,6 liter
  • Code: ZF GS6-45BZ/DZ 6/1
M2 (338 kW) PF (2023-2024)
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 1,6 liter
  • Code: ZF GS6-45BZ/DZ 6/1

Additional Notes

  • The BMW M2 in both the 338 kW and 353 kW variants carries a manual transmission fluid capacity of 1.6 liters, which is consistent with a service fill figure rather than a full overhaul or dry-fill quantity.
  • A 1.6-liter service fill capacity is relatively modest for a performance manual transmission, reflecting the compact internal volume typical of six-speed units found in rear-wheel-drive sports configurations.
  • The 338 kW M2 (G87) covers the 2023-2024 model years, while the 353 kW variant carries a starting year of 2024, meaning both variants share the same 1.6-liter capacity figure across the period where their production overlaps.
  • Both power variants specify normal use conditions for the 1.6-liter capacity, meaning the stated fill quantity applies to standard operating environments rather than severe-duty or track-focused service schedules.
  • No variation in manual transmission fluid capacity exists between the two M2 power outputs, indicating the same gearbox unit or at least the same fluid volume requirement is shared across both engine states of tune.
