Wolseley 15/60, 16/60

Automatic transmission fluid capacity & service interval

Wolseley 15/60 and 16/60 models require automatic transmission fluid with a capacity range of 2,98 to 6,57 liters. Service intervals include checks every 5000 km. The data covers 1 configuration.

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

TypeSpecifications

  • Capacity 2,98 liter (Torque converter)
  • Check 5000 km
  • Code: 3/1

Additional Notes

  • The Wolseley 16/60 automatic transmission carries a service fill capacity of 6.57 liters, a figure that reflects the fluid volume held within the transmission housing itself, separate from the torque converter circuit.
  • An additional 2.98 liters is attributed to the torque converter on the 16/60, meaning a full overhaul or dry fill of the complete automatic drivetrain assembly accounts for both values combined.
  • The distinction between the two capacity figures is significant in practice: a routine drain-and-fill service on the 16/60 would not recover the torque converter volume, as that fluid is largely retained unless the converter is separately drained or replaced.
  • The 16/60 automatic transmission fluid level is specified for checking at 5,000 km intervals under normal use conditions, placing routine fluid monitoring on a relatively frequent schedule relative to many contemporaneous automatic transmission service recommendations.
  • Only the 16/60 variant carries automatic transmission fluid specifications across the 1961-1971 model range covered, as the 15/60 designation does not appear within the automatic transmission system data.
