GMC Jimmy (USA / CAN)

Automatic transmission fluid capacity & service interval

GMC Jimmy (USA / CAN) requires automatic transmission fluid with a capacity of 4,7 liters. Service intervals include checking every 15000 km or 12 months and changing every 60000 km or 48 months. The data covers 2 configurations.

The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

Additional Notes

  • The GMC Jimmy 4.3 V6 automatic transmission holds 4.7 liters of fluid, a figure that represents a service fill rather than a full overhaul capacity, meaning the actual total system volume when the torque converter is fully drained would be higher.
  • Both the 1993-1998 and 1999-2002 model year configurations share an identical 4.7-liter service capacity, indicating no change in transmission fluid volume requirements across the two generations covered in the specifications.
  • The fluid check interval is set at 15,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first, under normal use conditions, reflecting a routine monitoring schedule rather than a change event.
  • The fluid change interval under normal use is 60,000 km or 48 months, meaning a full four-year or 60,000 km period is expected between drain-and-fill services when operating conditions are not classified as severe.
  • The 60,000 km change interval aligns with a ratio of four check cycles per change cycle, since the 15,000 km check interval divides evenly into the 60,000 km change interval, suggesting fluid condition monitoring at each quarter of the full service life.
