Additional Notes

  • Both the Nissan Qashqai J12 1.3 DIG-T MHEV 103 kW and 116 kW variants share an identical manual transaxle fluid capacity of 1.35 liters, indicating a service fill specification rather than a full overhaul or dry fill volume.
  • A service fill capacity reflects the amount of fluid needed when draining and refilling an already-assembled unit, which is typically lower than the total system capacity measured from a completely dry state.
  • The 1.35-liter capacity applies uniformly across both power outputs of the 1.3 DIG-T MHEV engine family introduced from 2021, meaning the manual transaxle hardware is shared between the two variants despite their differing output ratings.
  • The specified check interval for manual transaxle fluid on both configurations is 12 months or 30,000 km, whichever comes first, under normal use conditions.
  • A 30,000 km check interval is relatively frequent for manual transmission fluid, reflecting a monitoring schedule rather than necessarily a full fluid replacement at each interval.
  • The interval is designated for normal use conditions, meaning the 12-month or 30,000 km schedule applies to standard driving rather than severe or demanding operating environments.
