Additional Notes

  • The Reliant Fox manual transmission holds 0.64 liter of fluid, a relatively small capacity consistent with compact, lightweight gearbox designs typical of economy vehicles from that era.
  • Under normal use conditions, the fluid level is checked every 10,000 km, while a full fluid change is performed at 20,000 km intervals.
  • An initial service change is specified at 1,500 km, a notably short interval designed to flush out metal particles and manufacturing residues that accumulate during the gearbox's break-in period.
  • The 0.64 liter capacity applies equally to both the normal and initial service conditions, indicating a consistent service fill volume regardless of the service stage.
  • The initial service interval of 1,500 km represents roughly 7.5% of the standard 20,000 km change interval, reflecting how much sooner a new transmission requires attention compared to one already in regular service.
