Additional Notes

  • The Toyota Corolla E120 (USA) in the ZZE131 configuration carries a manual transaxle fluid capacity of 2.3 liters, a figure that represents a service fill volume rather than a full overhaul or dry-fill quantity.
  • Under normal use conditions, the manual transaxle on the ZZE131 calls for a fluid check at 30,000 miles or 36 months, whichever comes first, with no separate change interval specified for that condition.
  • Under severe use conditions, the check interval shortens to 15,000 miles or 18 months, and a fluid change is additionally required at 30,000 miles or 36 months, making the severe schedule meaningfully more demanding than the normal one.
  • The 2.3-liter capacity figure and the associated service intervals are consistent across both the 2005 and 2006 model years for the ZZE131, indicating no revision to the manual transaxle fluid specification between those two years.
