Additional Notes

  • The Citroën SM's transaxle-integrated manual transmission holds 2.25 liters of fluid, a capacity figure that reflects a combined gearbox and axle housing rather than a standalone gearbox unit.
  • The 2.7 V6 SM carries a normal-use check interval of every 5,000 km, meaning fluid level verification is scheduled at relatively frequent mileage points relative to the change interval.
  • Under normal use conditions, the change interval for the SM 2.7 V6 manual transaxle fluid is set at 20,000 km, placing the drain-and-refill cycle at four times the check interval distance.
