The Mercedes-Benz Vaneo W414 (EU) manual transmission fluid specifications cover five engine variants across the 2001-2006 model years, all using a transaxle layout where the gearbox and final drive share a common fluid reservoir.
A transaxle configuration combines the transmission and differential into a single unit, which means the fluid capacity listed for each variant represents the total fill for both functions simultaneously.
The Vaneo 1.6 (60 kW) stands apart from all other listed variants with a capacity of 1.7 liters, making it the only configuration in the range requiring a lower fluid volume at service fill.
The Vaneo 1.6 (75 kW) carries a capacity of 1.8 liters, meaning the two 1.6-liter petrol variants differ from each other by 0.1 liters despite sharing the same displacement figure, reflecting differences in their internal transaxle design.
The Vaneo 1.9, Vaneo CDI (55 kW), and Vaneo CDI (66 kW) all share an identical 1.8-liter capacity, indicating a common transaxle unit across the higher-output petrol and both diesel variants.
All five configurations carry a normal use condition designation, meaning the listed 1.7- and 1.8-liter capacities apply under standard operating conditions rather than severe-duty or first-change-only scenarios.
