Additional Notes

  • The Ford Mondeo Mk I automatic transaxle fluid capacity varies notably across engine configurations, ranging from 7.2 liters in the four-cylinder 1993-1996 models up to 10 liters in the 2.5i 24V V6 variants.
  • The 1.8i 16V and 2.0i 16V engines sharing the 1993-1996 production window both carry an identical transaxle fluid capacity of 7.2 liters, with a check interval of 15,000 km or 12 months under normal use conditions.
  • The 2.0i 16V in the 1996-2001 period shows a capacity listed as a range of 8.5 to 9 liters rather than a fixed value, which typically reflects a difference between a drain-and-refill service fill and a full overhaul or dry fill quantity.
  • Unlike the earlier 2.0i 16V specification, the 1996-2001 variant carries a time-based change interval of 12 months rather than a combined distance and time check interval, indicating a shift in the service approach for that configuration.
  • The 2.5i 24V V6 from 1994-1996 carries a 10-liter transaxle capacity, the largest among all listed configurations, which is consistent with the greater fluid volume demands of a larger displacement V6 drivetrain.
  • The 2.5i 24V V6 in the 1994-1996 period has a notably extended check interval of 15,000 km or 36 months under normal use, whereas the same engine in the 1996-2001 period reverts to a shorter 15,000 km or 12-month check interval despite retaining the same 10-liter capacity.
