Honda CRX (EU)

Manual transmission fluid capacity & service interval

Honda CRX (EU) manual transmission fluid capacity is 2,3 liters. Service intervals include checking every 10000 km or 6 months and changing every 40000 km or 24 months. The data covers 2 configurations.

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

TypeSpecifications
CRX 1.5i (1985-1989)
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 2,3 liter
  • Check 10000 km/ 6 months
  • Change 40000 km/ 24 months
  • Code: 5/1
CRX 1.6i-16V (1985-1989)
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 2,3 liter
  • Check 10000 km/ 6 months
  • Change 40000 km/ 24 months
  • Code: 5/1

Additional Notes

  • Both the CRX 1.5i and CRX 1.6i-16V share an identical manual transaxle fluid capacity of 2.3 liters, which is a typical service fill volume for a compact integrated gearbox and differential unit of this era.
  • The Honda CRX (EU) manual transaxle fluid check interval is set at 10,000 km or 6 months, whichever comes first, applying to normal use conditions across both the 1.5i and 1.6i-16V variants for the 1985-1989 period.
  • The fluid change interval for both configurations is 40,000 km or 24 months under normal use conditions, meaning a full drain and refill of the 2.3-liter transaxle is due roughly every two years in standard driving circumstances.
  • The check interval of 10,000 km or 6 months is notably more frequent than the change interval, reflecting the standard practice of monitoring fluid level and condition between full service cycles without necessarily replacing the fluid each time.
  • No variation exists between the 1.5i and 1.6i-16V in capacity, check interval, or change interval, indicating both engine variants share the same manual transaxle unit or at minimum an identically specified one in terms of fluid servicing.
