Additional Notes

  • Both the Ka 1.2 Duratec and the Ka 1.3 TDCi Duratorq share an identical manual transaxle fluid capacity of 1.65 liters across the full 2008-2016 model range.
  • A capacity of 1.65 liters is consistent with a service fill figure, meaning the quantity of fluid required when draining and refilling an installed unit rather than building a transmission from bare components.
  • The Ford Ka Mk II, B420 (EU) specifications carry a normal use condition for both engine variants, which in fluid service contexts refers to standard operating cycles as opposed to severe or extended-duty patterns.
  • No interval value in kilometers or months is listed alongside the 1.65-liter capacity for either variant, meaning the capacity figure stands as the primary actionable specification in the data.
  • The transaxle designation indicates a combined transmission and differential assembly, which is a common layout in front-wheel-drive subcompact vehicles and explains why a single fluid volume governs both gear and final drive lubrication.
