Vencer Sarthe

Manual transmission fluid capacity & service interval

Vencer Sarthe manual transmission fluid capacity is 4 liters. Service intervals occur every 10000 km or 12 months. The data covers 2 configurations.

The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

TypeSpecifications

Sarthe 6.2 V8 (2013-2014)
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 4 liter
  • Change 10000 km/ 12 months
  • Code: Ricardo 6/1

Additional Notes

  • Both the 6.2 V8 and 6.3 V8 configurations use a transaxle layout, meaning the manual transmission and final drive are housed in a single unit at the rear axle rather than directly behind the engine.
  • The Vencer Sarthe 6.2 V8, covering 2013-2014, carries a manual transaxle fluid capacity of 4 liters.
  • The 6.3 V8, spanning 2014-2016, shares the same 4-liter manual transaxle fluid capacity as the earlier 6.2 V8 configuration.
  • A 4-liter transaxle capacity is relatively substantial and reflects the combined volume requirements of a unit integrating both gearbox and differential lubrication within one housing.
  • Under normal use conditions, both engine configurations call for a fluid change interval of 10,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first, applying the same schedule regardless of displacement difference.
  • The 12-month time-based interval running alongside the 10,000 km mileage limit means a fluid change is due on whichever threshold is reached first, accounting for low-mileage operation where calendar aging of the fluid becomes the governing factor.
