Additional Notes

  • Both the 0.8 and 0.9 engine variants share an identical manual transaxle fluid capacity of 2.4 liters, meaning the transmission and differential are housed in a single combined unit rather than separate assemblies.
  • A 2.4-liter fill volume is consistent with a compact transaxle design, reflecting the small displacement and lightweight character of the Seat Marbella platform.
  • The check interval for both variants is set at 15,000 km or 6 months, whichever comes first, applying under normal use conditions rather than a more demanding service schedule.
  • The 6-month time-based component of the check interval means fluid condition is evaluated on a calendar basis regardless of whether the distance threshold has been reached, which is common in vehicles used for short or infrequent trips.
  • The 0.8-liter variant covers model years 1987-1994, while the 0.9-liter variant spans 1987-1998, yet both share the same 2.4-liter transaxle capacity and identical check interval across their respective production periods.
