Additional Notes

  • The Volvo C70 T5 manual transaxle fluid capacity is specified as 1.9–2 liters across all listed configurations from 2006-2010.
  • The capacity figure of 1.9–2 liters represents a service fill range, meaning the acceptable fill level falls within that window rather than at a single fixed volume.
  • All four row entries carry a normal use condition, meaning the listed capacity applies to standard operating circumstances rather than severe-duty or special-case service.
  • The specifications cover the T5 trim exclusively, which in the C70 lineup denotes the turbocharged five-cylinder engine paired with the manual transaxle noted in each row.
  • The term transaxle indicates a combined transmission and differential assembly, which is why the fluid capacity reflects a single unified fill rather than separate gearbox and axle volumes.
