Additional Notes

  • The Toyota Picnic M10 (EU) 2.0 manual transaxle holds 2.6 liters of fluid, while the 2.2 TD variant requires a notably smaller 2.2 liters, reflecting a difference in gearbox design between the two engine configurations.
  • Both the 2.0 and 2.2 TD are specified under normal use conditions, meaning the intervals listed apply to standard driving rather than demanding or severe operating environments.
  • The 2.0 manual transaxle carries a check interval of 30,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first, pairing a distance-based threshold with a time-based one to account for low-mileage use.
  • The 2.2 TD manual transaxle has a check interval of 40,000 km with no accompanying time-based interval, a distinction from the 2.0 specification where both distance and months are listed.
  • The 2.0 manual transaxle fluid change is scheduled at 105,000 km or 72 months, meaning a vehicle driven infrequently would reach the six-year time limit before the distance threshold.
  • The 2.2 TD manual transaxle fluid change interval is set at 100,000 km with no time-based counterpart listed, placing the entire service trigger on accumulated distance alone.
  • The 5,000 km difference in change intervals between the 2.0 (105,000 km) and the 2.2 TD (100,000 km) indicates that the two drivetrains follow separate service schedules despite sharing the same model years of 1996-2001.
