Borgward P100

Automatic transmission fluid capacity & service interval

Borgward P100 automatic transmission fluid capacity is 3,2 liters. Service intervals include checks at 4000 km and changes at 500 km or 12000 km. The data covers 2 configurations.

Additional Notes

  • The Borgward P100 2300 automatic transmission carries a fluid capacity of 3.2 liters, which represents the working fill volume for the transmission assembly.
  • Under normal use conditions, a fluid check interval of 4,000 km applies alongside a full change interval of 12,000 km for the automatic transmission.
  • An initial service condition is specified separately, requiring a fluid change at just 500 km, a notably short interval consistent with early break-in practices where metal particles and manufacturing residues are flushed from a new or freshly serviced unit.
  • The 3.2-liter capacity figure applies equally to both the normal and initial service conditions, indicating no difference in fill volume between a break-in service and a routine change.
  • The gap between the initial service change at 500 km and the subsequent normal change interval at 12,000 km reflects a significant step up in service frequency once the transmission has completed its early operational period.
