Additional Notes

  • The Toyota Celica T200 (USA) in the 2.2 16V AT204 configuration carries a differential fluid capacity of 1.6 liters across the entire 1994-1999 model year span covered by the specifications.
  • The 1.6-liter figure represents a service fill capacity, meaning the amount of fluid the differential housing holds during a standard drain-and-refill procedure rather than a full overhaul with component removal.
  • Under normal use conditions, the specified service action at 15,000 miles or 12 months is a check, meaning fluid level and condition are inspected without a mandatory drain and replacement at that interval.
  • Under severe use conditions, the same 15,000-mile or 12-month interval triggers a full fluid change rather than an inspection, reflecting the greater thermal and mechanical stress placed on the differential fluid in demanding driving situations.
  • The interval threshold of 15,000 miles or 12 months applies equally to both the check and change actions, with the distinction between normal and severe use determining which of the two service actions is performed at that point.
  • The capacity value of 1.6 liters remains consistent across all four individual model year entries from 1994-1999, indicating no revision to the differential housing specification occurred within the AT204 variant during the production period covered.
