Additional Notes

  • The Suzuki Swift MZ/EZ manual transaxle fluid capacity splits into two distinct values across the engine range. The 1.3 petrol (RS413), 1.5 (RS415), and 1.6 (RS416) variants all share a 2.2-liter capacity, while both 1.3 Diesel configurations under the RS413D code specify a notably higher 2.4-liter capacity. A larger transaxle housing or internal gearing differences associated with diesel drivetrains typically account for such a capacity increase.
  • Under normal use conditions, all variants in the range share a common fluid change interval of 45,000 km or 36 months, whichever comes first. The dual-trigger format, combining a distance threshold with a time limit, ensures the fluid is renewed even in low-mileage situations where calendar aging of the lubricant becomes the limiting factor.
  • Severe use conditions reduce the standard change interval by half, to 30,000 km or 24 months. Severe use generally refers to operating environments involving frequent short trips, extreme temperatures, towing, or sustained low-speed heavy-load driving, all of which accelerate fluid degradation beyond what normal intervals account for.
  • A separate first-change-only interval applies under severe use conditions, set at 15,000 km or 12 months. A shortened initial change is a recognized practice for new or rebuilt transmissions, as the break-in period generates fine metallic particles from component wear-in that are best removed early before they accumulate and cause abrasive damage.
  • The initial service entry across all variants specifies a fluid check at 15,000 km or 12 months rather than a full change. A check at this stage typically involves inspecting the fluid level and condition without necessarily draining and refilling, serving as an early verification that no leaks or contamination have developed.
  • The RS413D code covers both the Swift 1.3 Diesel and the Swift 1.3 Diesel DPF variants, and both share identical manual transaxle fluid capacities and service intervals across all use conditions. The DPF designation refers to a diesel particulate filter fitted to the exhaust system, a component that does not directly influence transmission fluid volume or change frequency.
  • The 1.6-liter RS416 variant entered the range from 2006, two years after the 1.3 and 1.5 petrol variants, yet carries the same 2.2-liter transaxle capacity and identical service intervals across all use conditions as the earlier RS413 and RS415 configurations.
