Lancia Delta

Automatic transmission fluid capacity & service interval

Lancia Delta uses Automatic transmission fluid with a capacity of 3,6 liters. Service intervals include checking every 10000 km or 6 months and changing every 60000 km. The data covers 3 configurations.

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

Additional Notes

  • The Lancia Delta automatic transaxle fluid capacity is 3.6 liters across the 1300, 1500, and 1600 GT variants, which is consistent with a service fill figure for a compact front-wheel-drive transaxle unit of that era.
  • The 1300 variant covers the full 1983-1991 model year span in the specifications, while the 1500 runs from 1983-1990 and the 1600 GT from 1983-1987, meaning the three variants share an identical starting year but differ in their ending years.
  • Under normal use conditions, the fluid check interval for all three variants is set at 10,000 km or 6 months, whichever comes first, reflecting a time-based component alongside the distance-based threshold.
  • The fluid change interval under normal use is 60,000 km for the 1300, 1500, and 1600 GT, placing the drain-and-fill cycle at six times the distance of each routine check interval.
  • All three configurations are noted as transaxle, automatic units, meaning the gearbox and final drive share a common fluid sump rather than being serviced as separate assemblies.
  • The 3.6-liter capacity figure applies uniformly across the 1300, 1500, and 1600 GT engine variants, indicating no difference in transaxle fluid volume despite the variation in engine displacement across the range.
