Additional Notes

  • The Ford Focus C-Max, C214 (EU) automatic transaxle fluid capacity splits into two distinct values across the engine range: 8.9 liters for the 1.8 16V, 1.6 TDCi (80 kW), and 1.6 TDCi (80 kW) DPF variants, and 6.7 liters for the 2.0 16V variant.
  • A transaxle capacity of 8.9 liters is a relatively high figure for an automatic unit of this era, suggesting a larger fluid sump or a design that integrates the differential and transmission into a single housing with greater total volume.
  • The 2.0 16V automatic transaxle holds 6.7 liters, which is a more moderate capacity and reflects a different transmission unit compared to the 8.9-liter configurations found in the other engines.
  • All five configurations share identical service intervals: a fluid level check every 20,000 km or 12 months, and a full fluid change every 120,000 km or 72 months, whichever comes first.
  • The 72-month change interval means that even low-mileage vehicles reach a mandatory fluid change at the six-year mark, making time an equally binding service trigger alongside distance.
  • The 2.0 16V automatic transaxle is listed under two separate production cutoff conditions: units built up to July 2007 and units built from August 2007 onward, both sharing the same 6.7-liter capacity and identical check and change intervals.
  • The 1.6 TDCi (80 kW) and the 1.6 TDCi (80 kW) DPF are listed as separate configurations, yet both carry the same 8.9-liter capacity and the same check and change schedule under normal use conditions.
  • All rows are designated for normal use conditions, with the exception of the 2.0 16V entries, which are differentiated by production date rather than by a use condition classification.
