Additional Notes

  • The Nissan Versa Note E12 manual transaxle holds 2.67 liters of fluid across all configurations in the 2014-2019 range, covering both USA and Canadian markets without variation in fill capacity.
  • A 2.67-liter capacity is consistent with a service fill figure for a compact manual transaxle, representing the amount of fluid required to bring the unit to its operating level rather than a full overhaul or rebuild quantity.
  • Under normal use conditions, the Canadian-market 1.6 specification calls for a fluid check at 16,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first, with no fluid change interval listed for that condition.
  • Under severe use conditions, the Canadian-market 1.6 adds a fluid change interval of 32,000 km or 24 months on top of the same 16,000 km or 12-month check schedule.
  • The USA-market 1.6 under normal use conditions specifies a fluid check at 10,000 miles or 12 months, which converts to approximately 16,093 km and aligns closely with the Canadian kilometer-based equivalent.
  • Under severe use conditions, the USA-market 1.6 specifies a fluid change at 20,000 miles or 24 months, which is the mile-based counterpart to the Canadian 32,000 km or 24-month change interval.
  • The 2014-2017 and 2017-2019 specification groups share identical capacity and interval values within each market, meaning the 2017 model year appears in both groups without producing any change in the stated figures.
  • The distinction between a check interval and a change interval is significant: under normal use, only a fluid level inspection is scheduled, while under severe use, a full drain and refill at 32,000 km or 20,000 miles is also required.
