Additional Notes
- The Mazda RX-7 SA (EU) manual transmission holds 1.7 liters of fluid, which represents a service fill volume typical of compact rear-wheel-drive gearboxes from the late 1970s and early 1980s.
- The 1.7-liter capacity applies uniformly across the 1978-1985 model years covered in the specifications, with no variation recorded between individual years within that range.
- The change interval is set at 45,000 km or 36 months, whichever comes first, meaning both a distance threshold and a time threshold govern when a fluid change is due.
- The 36-month time limit means that even low-mileage use does not extend the service interval beyond three years, as calendar aging of the fluid is treated as an independent factor alongside accumulated distance.
- The interval and capacity figures listed apply under normal use conditions, which in fluid service terminology refers to standard on-road driving as opposed to more demanding operating environments.
