Additional Notes

  • The Honda HR-V 1.8 2WD manual transaxle carries an initial fill capacity of 2 liters, which represents the full fluid volume required when the unit is dry, such as after a rebuild or complete drain during overhaul work.
  • The service fill capacity for the same transaxle is 1.9 liters, reflecting the slightly lesser volume that returns to the unit during a routine drain-and-refill, since a small residual amount of fluid typically remains in the housing after draining.
  • The 0.1-liter difference between the initial fill and service fill figures on the HR-V 1.8 2WD manual transaxle is consistent with the standard behavior of transmission sumps, where complete evacuation of fluid is not achievable through gravity draining alone.
  • The listed specifications for the HR-V 1.8 2WD manual transaxle apply under normal use conditions, covering the 2015-2022 model years without a separate severe-use interval distinction in the provided data.
