Additional Notes

  • Across all three power variants of the Toyota Matrix E130 (USA) covered in the 2003-2006 period, the manual transaxle fluid capacity is uniformly 2.3 liters, indicating a service fill volume rather than a full overhaul or dry fill figure.
  • The 134 kW ZZE133 variant from 2003-2004 carries a normal-use check interval of 30,000 miles or 24 months, which is a shorter time-based interval than the 36-month period assigned to the 122 kW and 127 kW variants under the same mileage threshold.
  • Under severe use, the 134 kW variant requires a fluid check every 15,000 miles or 12 months, compared to the 18-month time limit specified for the 122 kW and 127 kW variants at the same mileage interval.
  • The severe-use change interval for the 134 kW ZZE133 is set at 30,000 miles or 24 months, aligning with the shorter time cycle seen in its normal-use check schedule rather than the 36-month change interval assigned to the later lower-output variants.
  • Normal-use specifications for all three power variants include only a check interval with no fluid change interval listed, meaning routine operation does not trigger a scheduled drain and refill within the data provided.
  • Severe-use conditions introduce a mandatory fluid change at 30,000 miles across all variants, a requirement absent from the normal-use rows, reflecting the added stress that severe operating conditions place on manual transaxle fluid.
  • The 122 kW and 127 kW variants share identical interval figures for both normal and severe use despite representing different model year spans, with the 127 kW covering 2004-2005 and the 122 kW covering 2005-2006.
