Chery V5

Manual transmission fluid capacity & service interval

Chery V5 manual transmission fluid capacity is 2,2 liters. Service intervals occur every 30000 km or 12 months. The data covers 3 configurations.

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

Additional Notes

  • The Chery V5 manual transaxle holds 2.2 liters of fluid across all three engine variants covered in the 2006-2010 range, meaning the transmission housing volume is consistent regardless of engine displacement or output rating.
  • A 2.2-liter fill quantity is a relatively modest capacity for a manual transaxle, which is typical of compact front-wheel-drive gearbox designs where the differential is integrated into the same casing.
  • The 1.8 16V and both 2.0 16V variants share an identical 2.2-liter transaxle capacity, indicating a common gearbox unit is used across the engine lineup rather than separate transmission designs matched to each engine.
  • The two 2.0 16V engines differ only in power output, at 92 kW and 95 kW respectively, yet both share the same 2.2-liter transaxle fill specification, suggesting the power difference does not correspond to a different gearbox assembly.
  • The service interval for all three configurations is set at 30,000 km or 12 months under normal use conditions, meaning whichever threshold is reached first would apply as the basis for a fluid change.
  • A 30,000 km or 12-month interval under normal use is a relatively frequent manual transmission fluid change schedule compared to many modern vehicles, which reflects either a manufacturer preference for conservative maintenance or the fluid type specified for the transaxle.
