Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme (USA / CAN)

Automatic transmission fluid capacity & service interval

Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme (USA / CAN) uses Automatic transmission fluid with a capacity range of 3,25 to 5,75 liters. The data covers 2 configurations.

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

  • Code: 4/1
Cutlass Supreme 2.8 V6 (1988-1989)
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 3,25-5,75 liter
  • Code: 4/1

Additional Notes

  • The Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme 2.8 V6 (1988-1989) carries a notably wide automatic transaxle capacity range of 3.25 to 5.75 liters. A spread of this kind typically reflects the difference between a partial drain-and-fill service and a more thorough fluid exchange, where the actual amount recovered depends on how much fluid remains in the torque converter and valve body after draining.
  • The 3.1 V6 (1989-1993) lists a fixed automatic transaxle service fill capacity of 5.75 liters. A designated service fill figure represents the quantity added during a routine fluid change rather than a full overhaul refill, meaning the torque converter is not fully evacuated during the procedure.
  • The upper bound of the 2.8 V6 capacity range matches the fixed 5.75-liter service fill listed for the 3.1 V6, suggesting both engines share the same transaxle family, with the lower figure on the 2.8 V6 entry accounting for partial drain scenarios.
  • Both configurations are noted as transaxle applications, meaning the transmission and final drive are housed in a single unit, which is consistent with the front-wheel-drive platform the Cutlass Supreme used from 1988 onward.
  • Both the 2.8 V6 and 3.1 V6 entries carry a normal use condition, meaning the listed capacities and service intervals apply to standard operating circumstances rather than elevated-stress or severe-duty driving cycles.
