Additional Notes
- The NSU Ro80 carries an automatic transaxle fluid capacity of 2 liters, which is consistent with a service fill volume rather than a full overhaul or dry-fill figure. A service fill reflects the amount of fluid exchanged during a routine drain-and-refill, leaving residual fluid in the torque converter and passages.
- The change interval for the Ro80 automatic transaxle is set at 20,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first, under normal use conditions. The 12-month time limit means the fluid is subject to replacement on a calendar basis even when the distance threshold has not been reached.
- The combination of a relatively short distance interval and a firm annual time cap reflects the demands placed on automatic transaxle fluid, which degrades through heat cycling, oxidation, and shear stress regardless of mileage accumulation.
- A 2-liter service capacity in an automatic transaxle of this era is a modest figure, consistent with the compact integrated design of a transaxle unit where the transmission and final drive share a common housing rather than occupying separate reservoirs.
