Additional Notes

  • The MG MG3 manual transaxle holds 1.8 liters of fluid across all listed configurations, from the 1.3 and 1.5 engines of 2013-2015 through to the 1.5 Euro 6 variant of 2018-2024. A transaxle combines the transmission and differential into a single housing, and 1.8 liters is a typical fill volume for a compact front-wheel-drive unit of this type.
  • The 1.3 and 1.5 engine variants covering 2013-2015 share an identical specification: 1.8 liters capacity with an 80,000 km change interval under normal use conditions. The alignment of both figures across two different engine displacements suggests a common transaxle unit was used in both configurations during that period.
  • The 1.5 variant spanning 2016-2017 carries forward the same 1.8-liter capacity and 80,000 km change interval under normal use conditions as the earlier 2013-2015 generation, indicating no revision to the manual transaxle specification between those model years.
  • The 1.5 Euro 6 variant from 2018 onward lists only a capacity figure of 1.8 liters, with no change interval recorded in the specifications. Euro 6 refers to a European exhaust emissions standard, and its introduction here marks the only emissions-classified variant among the listed configurations.
  • Where a change interval is specified, the 80,000 km figure applies exclusively under normal use conditions. Normal use, as a service classification, generally reflects standard driving patterns without the added mechanical stress associated with severe or heavy-duty operating conditions.
  • Across the three configurations that do carry a change interval, the 80,000 km figure remains constant regardless of engine displacement or model year, spanning the 1.3 and both 1.5 non-Euro 6 variants from 2013-2017.
