Additional Notes
- The Simca 1500 automatic transmission carries a fluid capacity of 5.8 liters, which is a relatively substantial fill volume for an automatic unit of the 1963-1966 era, reflecting the total system capacity including the torque converter and hydraulic circuit.
- The 5.8-liter figure represents a full system fill rather than a simple pan-drop service quantity, as automatic transmissions of this period typically required draining and refilling the entire hydraulic circuit during service.
- A 5,000 km check interval is specified under normal use conditions, meaning the fluid level is to be verified at that mileage rather than necessarily replaced, pointing to a monitoring-focused maintenance approach for the automatic unit.
