Additional Notes

  • The Reliant Rebel manual transmission holds 1.14 liters of fluid across the Rebel 600 (1964-1968) and Rebel 700 (1967-1972) variants, while the Rebel 750 and Rebel 750 Van (1972-1974) both use a slightly smaller 0.99-liter fill capacity.
  • A 0.99-liter capacity, as seen in the 750 and 750 Van, is a service fill figure representing the amount of fluid needed to bring the transmission to its correct operating level during a standard drain-and-refill service.
  • All four variants share the same normal-use change interval of 8,000 km, meaning routine fluid replacement falls on the same schedule regardless of body style or model designation.
  • The Rebel 600 carries an initial service interval of 1,600 km, which is twice the distance specified for the Rebel 700, Rebel 750, and Rebel 750 Van, all of which list an initial service interval of 800 km.
  • An initial service interval, as applied here, refers to an early fluid change performed shortly after a new transmission enters use, intended to flush out metal particles generated during the break-in period before normal service intervals begin.
  • The Rebel 700 (1967-1972) shares its 1.14-liter capacity and 8,000 km normal interval with the earlier Rebel 600, despite representing a separate model designation with a different production window.
  • The Rebel 750 Van (1972-1974) carries identical manual transmission specifications to the Rebel 750 saloon of the same years, with a 0.99-liter capacity, an 800 km initial service interval, and an 8,000 km normal change interval.
