Simca 1100

Differential fluid capacity & service interval

Simca 1100 differential fluid capacity is 0,6 liter. Service intervals include checking at 5000 km and changing at 10000 km or 20000 km. The data covers 3 configurations.

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

Additional Notes

  • The Simca 1100's front differential holds 0.6 liter across all three configurations covered in the specifications, a relatively small capacity consistent with a compact front-wheel-drive transaxle design where the differential is integrated into the gearbox assembly.
  • The 1100 5CV produced from 1967-1973 carries a fluid change interval of 10000 km under normal use conditions, paired with a check interval of 5000 km.
  • From 1974-1978, the 1100 5CV retains the same 0.6 liter capacity and 5000 km check interval, but the fluid change interval doubles to 20000 km under normal use conditions, representing a notable divergence from the earlier production years of the same trim.
  • The 1100 Ti from 1974-1979 shares the 0.6 liter capacity with the 5CV variants, yet the change interval is specified at 10000 km under normal use conditions, aligning with the earlier 1967-1973 5CV schedule rather than the revised 20000 km interval adopted by the contemporary 1974-1978 5CV.
  • The 5000 km check interval is consistent across all three configurations regardless of the change interval assigned, indicating a uniform inspection frequency applied to the front differential fluid level throughout the model range.
