Additional Notes

  • The Subaru BRZ automatic transmission holds 7.5 liters as a dry fill capacity, which represents the total fluid volume required when filling a completely drained or rebuilt unit from empty.
  • For the 2.0-liter BRZ covering model years 2012-2019, the service fill capacity is 2 liters, reflecting only the partial volume displaced during a routine drain-and-fill procedure rather than a full overhaul.
  • The 2.4-liter BRZ from 2023 onward lists only a single 7.5-liter capacity figure without a separate service fill value, unlike the 2.0-liter configurations that distinguish between dry and service fill amounts.
  • Under normal use conditions, the 2.0-liter BRZ from 2012-2017 carries a fluid check interval of 30,000 km or 24 months alongside a change interval of 90,000 km or 60 months.
  • The change interval for the 2.0-liter BRZ extends from 90,000 km on the 2012-2017 configuration to 100,000 km on the 2017-2019 configuration, while the time-based interval of 60 months remains the same across both.
  • The 2.0-liter BRZ from 2017-2019 does not carry a fluid check interval in the specifications, whereas both the 2012-2017 and 2023-onward configurations include a check interval of 30,000 km or 24 months.
  • The 2.4-liter BRZ from 2023 onward shares the same 100,000 km or 60-month change interval as the later 2.0-liter 2017-2019 configuration, despite being a different engine displacement.
