Additional Notes
- The Ford Galaxy Mk I, WGR (EU) automatic transmission fluid capacity is 3.5 liters across all three engine configurations covered in the specifications: the 2.0i, 2.3i, and 2.8i VR6 4x4.
- A 3.5-liter figure for a service fill is a relatively modest volume, consistent with a partial drain-and-fill procedure rather than a full overhaul capacity, which would typically require a larger quantity to account for fluid retained in the torque converter and valve body.
- The check interval is set at 15,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first, under normal use conditions, applying equally to the 2.0i, 2.3i, and 2.8i VR6 4x4 variants.
- The change interval under normal use conditions is 60,000 km or 48 months across all three engine variants, meaning the fluid is replaced roughly every four years or every four check cycles.
- The 2.0i configuration carries a production span of 1995-2000, while the 2.3i entered the lineup in 1996, giving the 2.3i a one-year-shorter presence within the same overall model generation.
- The 2.8i VR6 4x4 shares the same 3.5-liter service capacity and identical check and change intervals as the smaller-displacement 2.0i and 2.3i variants, despite the added mechanical complexity of the four-wheel-drive drivetrain.
