Skoda 1100 series

Manual transmission fluid capacity & service interval

Skoda 1100 series manual transmission fluid capacity is 1,25 liters. Service intervals include a check at 2000 km and a change at 4000 km. The data covers 2 configurations.

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

Additional Notes

  • The Skoda 1100 series manual transmission holds 1.25 liters of fluid, a figure that applies uniformly across both the 1101/938 and 1102 variants covered in the specifications.
  • A check interval of 2,000 km is specified for both configurations, reflecting a relatively frequent monitoring schedule consistent with mid-20th century mechanical standards and the tolerances typical of that era's transmission designs.
  • The change interval is set at 4,000 km under normal use conditions for both the 1101/938 (1946-1949) and the 1102 (1949-1952), meaning a full drain and refill is due after every second check cycle.
  • The 1.25-liter capacity figure represents a service fill volume, which is the amount of fluid the transmission holds during normal operation rather than a total system or overhaul capacity that might account for residual fluid in passages or a torque converter.
  • The 1101 and 938 share a single specification row covering 1946-1949, indicating the two designations used the same manual transmission assembly with identical fluid requirements.
