Additional Notes
- The Ferrari 458's semi-automatic transaxle is serviced in two separate fluid compartments, with the clutch part and gear part each carrying distinct capacities rather than sharing a single combined fill volume.
- The clutch part of the transaxle across all 458 variants holds 8 liters, a figure that reflects a hydraulically complex wet-clutch assembly requiring a substantial fluid volume to manage heat and actuation pressure under normal use conditions.
- The gear part of the transaxle across all 458 variants holds 3.9 liters under normal use conditions, a notably smaller volume than the clutch part, consistent with a dedicated gear chamber that operates independently from the clutch hydraulics.
- The 458 Italia, covering 2010-2015, shares identical clutch part and gear part capacities of 8 liters and 3.9 liters respectively with the 458 Spider, which spans 2011-2015, indicating no capacity differentiation between the coupe and convertible body styles.
- The 458 Speciale and 458 Speciale A, both introduced in 2014 and 2015 respectively, carry the same 8-liter clutch part and 3.9-liter gear part capacities as the standard Italia, meaning the performance-oriented variants did not require a revised fluid volume specification for the transaxle.
- A combined transaxle service on any 458 variant would involve sourcing fluid for both compartments separately, totaling 11.9 liters across the clutch and gear parts under normal use conditions.
