Additional Notes

  • The Skoda 120 transaxle, manual carries two distinct fluid capacities: 2.4 liters and 2.8 liters, indicating that different internal configurations within the same model year range require different fill volumes.
  • A 2.4-liter transaxle capacity typically reflects a partial or service-level fill, while the 2.8-liter figure suggests a fuller fill associated with a more complete fluid exchange or a differently sized unit.
  • Both capacity variants share identical service intervals under normal use conditions, with a fluid level check specified at every 10,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first.
  • The fluid change interval for all manual transaxle configurations across the 1984-1991 range is set at 40,000 km under normal use conditions.
  • The Rapid Coupé 120 carries the same two transaxle capacities, 2.4 liters and 2.8 liters, as the standard 120, and the check and change intervals are identical between the two body styles.
  • All four specification rows are designated for normal use conditions, meaning the 10,000 km or 12-month check cycle and the 40,000 km change interval apply specifically within that operating context.
