Additional Notes

  • Both the 1.4i-16V and 1.6i-16V engine variants share an identical manual transaxle fluid capacity of 1.6 liters, covering the full 1994-2000 model range.
  • A capacity of 1.6 liters is consistent with a compact front-wheel-drive transaxle, where the gearbox and final drive share a common fluid sump rather than separate reservoirs.
  • The Opel Tigra S93 manual transaxle service interval is set at 24 months or 30,000 km under normal use conditions, whichever comes first.
  • The interval is designated as a check rather than a drain-and-fill, meaning the specification calls for verifying fluid level rather than a full fluid replacement at each service point.
  • Normal use conditions, as tied to the 24-month/30,000 km check interval here, represent standard operating environments without the shortened cycles that severe use classifications typically impose.
