Nissan Laurel (EU)

Manual transmission fluid capacity & service interval

Nissan Laurel (EU) manual transmission fluid capacity ranges from 1,7 to 2 liters. Service intervals require checks every 10000 km or 6 months. The data covers 5 configurations.

The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

Additional Notes

  • The Nissan Laurel (EU) C32 generation covers the 1986-1989 model years across three engine variants: a 2.0-liter petrol, a 2.4-liter petrol, and a 2.8-liter diesel, each paired with a manual transmission.
  • The 2.0-liter C32 lists two distinct manual transmission fluid capacities: 1.7 liters and 2.0 liters. The presence of two separate capacity figures for the same engine displacement suggests different gearbox units were fitted across the production run or trim levels.
  • The 2.4-liter C32 similarly carries two listed capacities, 1.7 liters and 1.9 liters, indicating the same pattern of multiple transmission variants within a single engine family.
  • The 2.8-liter diesel C32 lists a single manual transmission fluid capacity of 1.9 liters, which aligns with one of the two figures recorded for the 2.4-liter variant.
  • Across all five rows, the check interval is uniformly set at 10,000 km or 6 months under normal use conditions, whichever comes first. The dual-trigger format means time elapsed can prompt a service even when mileage accumulation is low.
  • All specifications are designated for normal use conditions. No severe-use interval is listed for any of the C32 manual transmission configurations in the 1986-1989 period.
  • The 1.7-liter capacity figure appears in both the 2.0-liter and 2.4-liter engine rows, meaning the same transmission unit may have been shared between those two engine displacements in certain configurations.
  • The 2.0-liter variant has the widest capacity spread among the three engines, ranging from 1.7 to 2.0 liters, a difference of 0.3 liters that would be meaningful when performing a precise service fill to avoid underfilling or overfilling the gearbox.
