Daihatsu 850/1000

Manual transmission fluid capacity & service interval

Daihatsu 850/1000 uses manual transmission fluid with a capacity of 0,7 liter. Service intervals include a check at 10000 km and a change at 40000 km. The data covers 2 configurations.

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

TypeSpecifications
1000 (S/T 75) (1984-1992)
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 0,7 liter
  • Check 10000 km
  • Change 40000 km
  • Code: 4/1
850 (S/T 70) (1983-1986)
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 0,7 liter
  • Check 10000 km
  • Change 40000 km
  • Code: 4/1

Additional Notes

  • Both the 1000 (S/T 75) and the 850 (S/T 70) share an identical manual transmission fluid capacity of 0.7 liter, which is a relatively small fill volume consistent with compact city car gearboxes of the era.
  • The Daihatsu 850 (S/T 70) covers model years 1983-1986, while the 1000 (S/T 75) spans 1984-1992, meaning the two configurations overlap during 1984-1986.
  • A fluid check interval of 10,000 km applies to both configurations under normal use conditions, indicating a routine inspection cadence rather than a change event.
  • The change interval for both configurations is set at 40,000 km under normal use, placing four check intervals between each fluid change.
  • The 0.7 liter figure represents a service fill capacity, meaning the volume expected when topping up or refilling during a standard drain-and-fill service rather than a full overhaul capacity.
  • The specifications carry no severe-use interval variant for either configuration, with normal use being the sole condition under which the 10,000 km check and 40,000 km change intervals are defined.
