Additional Notes

  • The Talbot Horizon 1.4 automatic transaxle carries a change capacity of 5.2 liters, a figure that applies to both the 1980-1984 and 1985-1987 model year ranges under normal use conditions.
  • A change capacity, as opposed to a total or overhaul fill figure, represents the volume of fluid displaced during a routine service drain, which is typically less than the full system volume since residual fluid remains in the torque converter and passages.
  • The 5.2-liter change capacity is consistent across the full 1980-1987 production span of the 1.4-engined automatic variant, with no variation recorded between the earlier and later model year groupings.
  • Both specification rows are designated for normal use conditions, meaning the 5.2-liter change capacity is not adjusted for severe-duty or first-change-only scenarios within the listed data.
