Additional Notes

  • The BMW 3 Series Gran Turismo F34 manual transmission fluid capacity differs between the xDrive and rear-wheel-drive configurations of the 328i Gran Turismo with the N20 engine. The xDrive variants carry 1.2 liters, while the standard 328i Gran Turismo units bearing the MTF-LT3 label carry 1.4 liters.
  • The 0.2-liter difference between the xDrive and the MTF-LT3-labeled rear-drive transmission reflects a physical difference in the gearbox units used across the two drivetrain configurations.
  • All four configurations listed specify normal use conditions, meaning the stated capacities apply to standard operating environments rather than severe-duty or first-change-only scenarios.
  • The MTF-LT3 label notation in the rear-drive 328i Gran Turismo rows identifies a specific fluid type designation marked on the transmission housing itself, which corresponds to the 1.4-liter fill capacity in both the 2013-2015 and 2015-2016 model year spans.
  • The 328i Gran Turismo xDrive with the N20 engine maintains a consistent 1.2-liter manual transmission fluid capacity across both the 2013-2015 and 2015-2016 model year groupings, indicating no capacity revision occurred between those periods.
  • Similarly, the rear-drive 328i Gran Turismo N20 with the MTF-LT3 label holds a consistent 1.4-liter capacity across both the 2013-2015 and 2015-2016 spans, reflecting no change in fill volume across those model year groupings.
