Daihatsu Hi Jet

Manual transmission fluid capacity & service interval

Daihatsu Hi Jet manual transmission fluid capacity ranges from 1,1 to 1,6 liters. Service intervals include checking every 10000 km or 6 months and changing every 40000 km or 24 months. The data covers 4 configurations.

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

Additional Notes

  • The Daihatsu Hi Jet (2WD & 4WD) built between 1984-1992 carries a manual transmission fluid capacity of 1.1 liters, a figure typical of compact kei-class gearboxes where internal volume is kept minimal by design.
  • The 1993-1996 Hijet Van / Pick up stands apart with a notably higher transmission fluid capacity of 1.6 liters, the largest figure across all listed configurations, suggesting a physically larger or differently designed gearbox unit compared to the earlier and later variants.
  • Both the 1.2 D and 1.3 engine variants of the 1996-2005 Hijet Van / Pick up share an identical manual transmission fluid capacity of 1.1 liters, matching the earlier 1984-1992 specification despite the generational gap between them.
  • The 1984-1992 specification lists a fluid check interval of 10,000 km with no time-based component, while all 1993-2005 rows add a parallel 6-month time trigger to the same 10,000 km distance interval, introducing a dual-condition check requirement in later generations.
  • A change interval of 40,000 km applies uniformly across all four configurations under normal use conditions. In the 1993-2005 rows, a 24-month time limit runs alongside the distance figure, meaning whichever threshold is reached first would govern the service event.
  • The 1984-1992 row covers both 2WD and 4WD drivetrain layouts under a single shared capacity of 1.1 liters, indicating no differentiation in transmission fluid volume between the two drivetrain configurations for that generation.
  • All specifications across the 1984-2005 range are designated for normal use conditions, meaning the listed check and change intervals reflect standard operating environments rather than severe-duty cycles such as frequent towing or extreme temperature exposure.
