Additional Notes

  • The Ferrari California uses a transaxle semi-automatic transmission, which means the gearbox is mounted at the rear axle rather than directly behind the engine, requiring separate fluid fills for the clutch part and the gear part of the unit.
  • For the 2009-2014 California, the clutch part of the transaxle carries a capacity range of 7.8 to 9.2 liters, while the gear part carries a separate range of 3.5 to 4.9 liters, with the spread in both figures reflecting the difference between a drain-and-refill service fill and a full overhaul capacity.
  • The California T (2014-2017) shows fixed single-value capacities of 7.8 liters for the clutch part and 3.5 liters for the gear part, in contrast to the ranges listed for the earlier 2009-2014 variants, indicating a tighter or revised specification for the turbocharged model.
  • Across all three model variants covering 2009-2017, the fluid check interval for both the clutch part and the gear part is set at 20,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first under normal use conditions.
  • A fluid change interval of 100,000 km under normal use conditions applies specifically to the clutch part of the transaxle across all variants, from the 2009-2012 California through to the 2014-2017 California T.
  • No fluid change interval is listed for the gear part of the transaxle in any of the three variants, meaning the service schedule for that section of the unit covers inspection only at the 20,000 km or 12-month mark.
  • The 2012-2014 California shares identical capacity figures and service intervals with the 2009-2012 California for both the clutch part and the gear part, indicating no specification change was introduced at the 2012 model revision point.
