Opel Crossland

Automatic transmission fluid capacity & service interval

The Opel Crossland uses automatic transmission fluid with a dry fill capacity of 7 liters and a service fill capacity of 3 liters. The data covers 3 configurations of the model.

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

TypeSpecifications

  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 7 liter (Dry fill)
  • Capacity 3 liter (Service fill)
  • Code: AT6III (ME1) 6/1
Crossland 1.2 Turbo (96 kW) (2020- )
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 7 liter (Dry fill)
  • Capacity 3 liter (Service fill)
  • Code: AT6III (ME1) 6/1
Crossland 1.5 Diesel (88 kW) (2020-2023)
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 7 liter (Dry fill)
  • Capacity 3 liter (Service fill)
  • Code: AT6III (ME1) 6/1

Additional Notes

  • The Opel Crossland automatic transaxle carries a dry fill capacity of 7 liters across all three listed configurations, covering the 1.2 Turbo 81 kW, 1.2 Turbo 96 kW, and 1.5 Diesel 88 kW variants for the 2020-2023 period.
  • A dry fill of 7 liters represents the total fluid volume required when filling a completely empty transmission, such as after a full overhaul or unit replacement where all internal passages and the torque converter have been drained.
  • The service fill capacity is 3 liters across all three configurations, which is the volume needed during a routine fluid change where residual fluid remains in the torque converter and valve body after a standard drain.
  • The difference between the 7-liter dry fill and the 3-liter service fill reflects the roughly 4 liters of fluid that stays trapped in the torque converter during a conventional drain procedure, a common characteristic of automatic transaxle designs.
  • Both petrol variants, the 81 kW and 96 kW versions of the 1.2 Turbo, share identical automatic transaxle fluid capacities, indicating the same transmission unit is used regardless of the power output difference between the two engine tunes.
  • All three configurations specify normal use conditions for the listed capacity and interval data, meaning the 3-liter service fill figure applies to standard driving rather than severe-duty cycles involving frequent towing, extreme temperatures, or stop-and-go operation.
