Additional Notes

  • The Honda Accord VII 2.2i-CTDi manual transaxle carries a 2.5-liter initial fill capacity, which reflects the total fluid volume required when filling a dry or overhauled gearbox from empty.
  • The same 2.2i-CTDi transaxle drops to a 2.2-liter service fill capacity, representing the smaller volume needed when fluid is drained and refilled during a routine change, since some fluid remains in the unit.
  • The 0.3-liter difference between initial and service fill on the 2.2i-CTDi and 2.2i-CTDi DPF variants is the largest capacity split in the lineup, making precise measurement during service particularly relevant for those engines.
  • The 2.0i and 2.4i petrol variants share a uniform 1.9-liter transaxle capacity with no distinction between initial and service fill, indicating a single published figure applies to both fill scenarios for those engines.
  • Across all six configurations, the fluid change interval is set at 120,000 km or 96 months, whichever comes first, under normal use conditions.
  • The 2.4i under severe use conditions carries a change interval of 60,000 km or 48 months, exactly half the distance and time of the normal-use interval for the same engine.
  • A fluid level check interval of 20,000 km or 12 months is specified for the 2.0i and 2.4i petrol variants under normal use, adding a periodic inspection step between full fluid changes.
  • No check interval appears in the 2.2i-CTDi and 2.2i-CTDi DPF specifications, where only the change interval is listed under normal use conditions.
  • The 2.4i is the only engine in the lineup with a severe-use row, making the 60,000 km or 48-month change interval exclusive to that configuration among the specifications provided.
