Additional Notes

  • The Ford B-MAX (EU) manual transaxle fluid capacity is 2.3 liters across all listed engine variants. A transaxle combines the transmission and differential into a single housing, and a service fill capacity of 2.3 liters reflects the amount needed when draining and refilling during routine maintenance rather than a full overhaul.
  • All ten configurations carry a normal use condition designation. In fluid service contexts, normal use typically refers to standard driving patterns without the added thermal or mechanical stress associated with severe duty cycles such as frequent towing, extreme temperatures, or stop-and-go urban driving.
  • The 1.0 EcoBoost engine appears in four distinct power outputs: 74 kW, 88 kW, 92 kW, and 103 kW. Despite the variation in output, all four share the same 2.3-liter transaxle capacity, indicating a common gearbox unit across the EcoBoost range in the B-MAX.
  • The 74 kW and 88 kW EcoBoost variants have a model year range beginning in 2012, while the 92 kW and 103 kW variants begin in 2013, reflecting a staggered introduction of the higher-output EcoBoost configurations within the B-MAX lineup.
  • The naturally aspirated and alternative-fuel petrol variants, covering the 1.4 (66 kW), 1.4 Flex Fuel (66 kW), and 1.4 LPG (63 kW), all share the 2.3-liter transaxle capacity. The LPG variant produces slightly less power at 63 kW compared to the 66 kW petrol and flex-fuel versions, yet uses the same gearbox fill volume.
  • The 1.5 TDCi diesel engine is listed in both Euro 5 and Euro 6 emissions standard variants. The Euro 5 version covers 2012-2016, while the Euro 6 variants, available in 55 kW and 70 kW outputs, span 2015-2018, with a period of overlap between 2015 and 2016 where both emissions standards were available.
  • The 1.5 TDCi Euro 5 entry does not list a specific power output in kilowatts, unlike the Euro 6 variants which are explicitly rated at 55 kW and 70 kW. All three diesel configurations share the same 2.3-liter transaxle fluid capacity.
