Subaru Justy (EU)

Automatic transmission fluid capacity & service interval

Subaru Justy (EU) automatic transmission fluid capacity ranges from 4,9 to 5 liters. Service intervals include checks at 10000 km/6 months or 45000 km/36 months and changes at 45000 km/36 months, 90000 km/72 months, or 160000 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 Subaru Justy (EU) 1.3 produced from 1996-2003 carries an automatic transmission fluid capacity of 4.9 liters, while the 2007-2010 generation lists a capacity of 5 liters for its automatic transaxle, reflecting a slight increase between the two generations.
  • The terminology shifts between generations as well. The 1996-2003 variant references a "transmission, automatic," whereas the 2007-2010 variant uses "transaxle, automatic," indicating a unit that integrates the transmission and axle differential into a single assembly.
  • Under normal use conditions, the 1996-2003 1.3 specifies a fluid check interval of every 10,000 km or 6 months, which is a relatively short monitoring cycle compared to the 2007-2010 generation's normal-use check interval of 45,000 km or 36 months.
  • The 1996-2003 1.3 carries a fluid change interval of 160,000 km under normal use, a notably long drain interval that suggests the specification was intended to reflect extended-life fluid performance under standard operating conditions.
  • For the 2007-2010 1.3 under normal use, the fluid change interval is set at 90,000 km or 72 months, meaning a time-based limit of six years applies alongside the distance-based threshold, whichever comes first.
  • Under severe use conditions, the 2007-2010 1.3 transaxle fluid change interval drops to 45,000 km or 36 months, exactly matching the normal-use check interval for the same generation, which illustrates how demanding operating conditions effectively halve the drain interval relative to normal use.
  • The severe-use row for the 2007-2010 1.3 lists only a change interval and no separate check interval, whereas the normal-use row for the same configuration includes both a check and a change interval as distinct service events.
