Additional Notes

  • The manual transmission fluid capacity for both the 2.5D (2010-2016) and 3.2D (2008-2011) engine configurations is 3.4 liters, which represents a service fill volume typical of a mid-size manual gearbox rather than a full overhaul or dry-fill quantity.
  • The Mitsubishi Pajero Sport / Montero Sport PB/PC (EU) specifies a fluid check interval of every 15,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first, under normal use conditions for both engine variants.
  • The fluid change interval under normal use is set at 45,000 km or 36 months for both the 2.5D and 3.2D configurations, meaning a full drain-and-refill cycle occurs roughly every three years in standard driving conditions.
  • The check interval of 15,000 km aligns with a three-times-per-change-cycle frequency, as three check intervals of 15,000 km each correspond exactly to the 45,000 km change interval.
  • Despite the difference in engine displacement between the 2.5D and 3.2D variants, the manual transmission fluid capacity of 3.4 liters remains identical across both configurations, indicating a shared or dimensionally equivalent gearbox unit.
