BYD F6

Automatic transmission fluid capacity & service interval

BYD F6 automatic transmission fluid capacity ranges from 6,5 to 7,7 liters. Service intervals include checking every 20000 km or 12 months and changing every 40000 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 BYD F6 2.4 16V with the QCJ7240E engine carries a dry fill capacity of 7.7 liters for its automatic transmission, which represents the total fluid volume required when filling a completely drained or rebuilt unit where the torque converter and all internal passages are empty.
  • The service fill capacity of 6.5 liters is notably lower than the dry fill figure, reflecting the volume needed during a routine fluid change when residual fluid remains in the torque converter and transmission cooler lines.
  • The difference of 1.2 liters between the dry fill and service fill values means underfilling during a standard service is a real risk if the dry fill figure is mistakenly used as the reference for a routine drain-and-fill procedure.
  • Under normal use conditions, the specification calls for a fluid check at 20,000 km or every 12 months, whichever comes first, rather than a full fluid change, indicating a monitoring interval rather than a replacement schedule.
  • Under severe use conditions, the same 2007-2013 F6 2.4 16V QCJ7240E configuration carries a fluid change interval of 40,000 km, which applies the full 6.5-liter service fill capacity at each replacement.
