Honda Fit II, GE8 (USA / CAN)

Automatic transmission fluid capacity & service interval

Honda Fit II, GE8 (USA / CAN) requires automatic transmission fluid with a capacity range of 2,5 to 5,85 liters. Service intervals occur every 30000 miles or 24 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 Honda Fit II GE8 automatic transaxle holds 5.85 liters at dry fill, a figure that reflects the total fluid volume required when the unit is completely empty, such as during a full rebuild or replacement where the torque converter and all internal passages are drained.
  • The service fill capacity of 2.5 liters is notably lower than the dry fill, representing only the fluid displaced during a standard drain-and-fill procedure where residual fluid remains in the torque converter and valve body.
  • Under severe use conditions, the 1.5 16V automatic transaxle carries a defined change interval of 30,000 miles or 24 months, whichever comes first, applied to the 2.5-liter service fill quantity.
  • The flexible use condition, governed by the on-board maintenance system, is paired with the same 5.85-liter dry fill and 2.5-liter service fill capacities but carries no fixed mileage or time-based change interval in the specifications.
  • Both the severe and flexible use conditions share identical capacity figures across the 2008-2014 model range, indicating no variation in transaxle fluid volume between those two service classifications for the 1.5 16V engine.
