Additional Notes
- The Ford Focus (USA) 2.0 16V and 2.3 16V share an identical automatic transaxle fluid capacity of 6.6 liters, which points to a common transmission unit across both engine displacements in the 2005-2007 model years.
- A dry fill capacity of 6.6 liters is noted for the 2.0 16V in the 2008-2011 model years, meaning the figure represents a fully drained and rebuilt unit rather than a routine service top-up, which typically requires less fluid due to residual volume remaining in the torque converter and passages.
- The 2005-2007 entries for both the 2.0 16V and 2.3 16V carry a severe use condition tied to a 48,000 km change interval, meaning the 48,000 km figure applies specifically under demanding operating conditions such as frequent towing, stop-and-go traffic, or extreme temperatures.
- The 2008-2011 2.0 16V entry assigns the same 48,000 km interval under normal use conditions, which represents standard everyday driving without the stress factors associated with severe service classifications.
- The change interval of 48,000 km remains consistent across all three configurations despite differences in model year ranges, engine variants, and use condition classifications.
- The capacity figure of 6.6 liters across all listed configurations falls within the typical range for a compact front-wheel-drive automatic transaxle, where the transmission and differential share a common housing and fluid supply.
