Additional Notes
- The Maserati Ghibli 2.8 V6 automatic transmission carries a fluid capacity of 6.8 liters, a figure consistent with a service fill rather than a full overhaul, as complete disassembly and torque converter drainage would typically yield a higher total system volume.
- The 6.8-liter service fill capacity applies to the 1993-1998 model years of the 2.8 V6 variant, covering the full production span represented in the specifications.
- The change interval is set at 20,000 km or 24 months, whichever comes first, meaning both a distance threshold and a time threshold govern when a fluid exchange is due under normal use conditions.
- The 24-month time limit within the normal use interval reflects that fluid degradation occurs through oxidation and moisture absorption over time, independent of mileage accumulation.
- A 20,000 km interval for automatic transmission fluid under normal use conditions is relatively short by later industry standards, which is consistent with maintenance philosophies common to European performance vehicles of the 1990s.
