Additional Notes

  • The Opel Corsa E 1.4 (66 kW) with an automatic transaxle carries a dry fill capacity of 7.6 liters, which represents the total fluid volume required when filling a completely drained or rebuilt unit from empty.
  • The same automatic transaxle configuration specifies a service fill range of 4.5-5.5 liters, a notably wide spread that reflects the variable amount of fluid retained in the torque converter and valve body during a standard drain-and-fill service.
  • The gap between the 7.6-liter dry fill and the 4.5-5.5-liter service fill on the 1.4 (66 kW) automatic transaxle means roughly 2.1-3.1 liters remain in the system during a routine service, which is a common characteristic of automatic transmissions without a full drain plug for the torque converter.
  • Both the 1.3 CDTI (70 kW) and the 1.4 (66 kW) semi-automatic transaxle variants share identical capacity figures: 1.6 liters dry fill and 1.5 liters for a service or refill, indicating a much smaller fluid volume consistent with automated manual transmission designs rather than conventional hydraulic automatics.
  • The semi-automatic transaxle configurations across both engine variants use the term "Refill" on the 1.4 (66 kW) row and "Service fill" on the 1.3 CDTI (70 kW) row, though both values are 1.5 liters, pointing to the same practical quantity regardless of the label used.
  • All four rows share a uniform check interval of 12 months or 30,000 km under normal use conditions, applying equally to both the semi-automatic and automatic transaxle types across the covered model years.
  • The 1.4 (66 kW) automatic transaxle specifications appear across two separate year ranges, 2015-2018 and 2018-2019, with identical capacity and interval figures in both entries.
  • The 1.3 CDTI (70 kW) semi-automatic transaxle is listed only for 2015-2018, while the 1.4 (66 kW) automatic transaxle extends into the 2018-2019 range, reflecting differing production periods between the diesel and petrol variants within the Corsa E X15 generation.
