DongFeng JingYi

Manual transmission fluid capacity & service interval

DongFeng JingYi manual transmission fluid capacity is 2,1 liters. Service intervals include checks at 10000 km or 6 months, and changes at 5000 km or 40000 km. The data covers 4 configurations.

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

Additional Notes

  • The DongFeng JingYi manual transaxle holds 2.1 liters of fluid across both the 1.5 and 1.8 engine variants, a figure that applies to service fills rather than a full overhaul or dry-fill scenario.
  • Under normal use conditions, the 1.5 and 1.8 transaxles share an identical check interval of 10,000 km or 6 months, whichever comes first, reflecting a time-based threshold alongside the distance-based one.
  • The normal-use drain interval for both engine variants is set at 40,000 km, which is a relatively extended change cycle for a manual transaxle fluid.
  • An initial service drain interval of 5,000 km is specified for both the 1.5 and 1.8 transaxles, a notably shorter interval than the 40,000 km normal-use cycle and consistent with the practice of removing early wear particles and manufacturing residues from a new gearbox.
  • The 2.1-liter transaxle capacity is uniform across both engine displacements, indicating the 1.5 and 1.8 variants share the same manual transaxle unit or at least the same fluid volume requirement.
  • No check interval is listed under the initial service condition for either variant, meaning the 5,000 km initial service entry covers only the fluid change, not an intermediate inspection point.
