Additional Notes

  • Both the 2.0 16V Turbo and the 2.4 16V engines in the Pontiac Solstice share an identical manual transmission fluid capacity range of 2.6 to 2.7 liters across the 2006-2009 model years.
  • A capacity expressed as a range, such as 2.6 to 2.7 liters, typically reflects the difference between a drain-and-fill service quantity and the full overhaul or dry-fill quantity, where the lower figure applies when residual fluid remains in the transmission after draining.
  • Both configurations carry a normal use condition designation, meaning the stated capacity figures apply under standard operating circumstances rather than severe or first-change-only service conditions.
  • The alignment of fluid capacity specifications between the turbocharged 2.0-liter and the naturally aspirated 2.4-liter variants suggests both engines were paired with the same manual transmission unit throughout the 2006-2009 production span.
