Additional Notes

  • The Honda Civic XI FL5 2.0 Type-R PF carries a service fill capacity of 2.2 liters for the manual transaxle, representing the amount of fluid needed during a routine drain-and-fill service without disassembling the unit.
  • The overhaul capacity of 2.6 liters is 0.4 liters greater than the service fill figure, reflecting the additional fluid volume required when the transaxle is fully disassembled and all residual fluid has been removed from internal passages and components.
  • A fluid level check interval of 20,000 km or 12 months applies to both normal and severe use conditions, meaning the inspection schedule remains constant regardless of operating environment.
  • Under normal use conditions, the manual transaxle fluid change interval is set at 120,000 km or 72 months, which equals a six-year cycle when measured by time.
  • Under severe use conditions, the change interval is reduced to 60,000 km or 36 months, exactly half the normal-use interval in both distance and time, reflecting the accelerated fluid degradation associated with more demanding operating conditions.
