Renault Dauphine / Odine (EU)

Manual transmission fluid capacity & service interval

Renault Dauphine / Odine (EU) manual transmission fluid capacity ranges from 1,25 to 1,6 liters. Service intervals consist of a 5000 km check and a 10000 km change. The data covers 3 configurations.

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

Additional Notes

  • The Renault Dauphine / Ondine transaxle, manual carries a capacity range of 1.25 to 1.6 liters, which reflects variation across the 1956-1967 production span rather than a single fixed fill volume.
  • A capacity range rather than a single value in a manual transaxle typically accounts for differences in unit design or assembly tolerances across model variants built over an extended period.
  • The Ondine Gordini transaxle, manual specifies a fixed capacity of 1.25 liters, placing it at the lower bound of the range seen in the standard Dauphine / Ondine specification.
  • Under normal use conditions, the check interval for the transaxle fluid is set at 5,000 km across all three listed configurations.
  • The change interval under normal use is 10,000 km, applying equally to the Dauphine / Ondine and the Ondine Gordini transaxle specifications.
  • A 5,000 km check interval paired with a 10,000 km change interval means fluid level is verified at the halfway point of each full service cycle, a practice consistent with older transmission designs that may be more prone to minor seepage.
