Ford Transit Connect, V761 (EU)

Additional Notes

• The Ford Transit Connect V761 (EU) 1.5 PHEV uses a transaxle semi-automatic transmission with a dry fill capacity of 8.1 liters. Dry fill represents the total fluid volume required when filling a completely empty transmission, such as after a full overhaul or unit replacement.
• The service fill capacity for the 1.5 PHEV transaxle is 7.0 liters, which is the amount needed during a routine fluid change where residual fluid remains in the torque converter and passages. The 1.1-liter difference between dry and service fill reflects that retained volume.
• The 2.0 EcoBlue (90 kW) DPF variant carries a dry fill capacity of 6.8 liters, which is notably lower than the 8.1-liter dry fill of the 1.5 PHEV. The difference indicates a physically smaller or differently configured transaxle unit between the two powertrains.
• The service fill capacity for the 2.0 EcoBlue transaxle is 6.0 liters, leaving a 0.8-liter margin below the dry fill figure. As with the PHEV variant, the gap between dry and service fill accounts for fluid that remains in the system during a standard drain-and-refill procedure.
• Both configurations are specified under normal use conditions, meaning the listed capacities apply to standard operating environments rather than severe-duty cycles such as frequent towing, extreme temperatures, or stop-and-go fleet operation.
• Both the 1.5 PHEV and the 2.0 EcoBlue (90 kW) DPF are noted as transaxle semi-automatic units, a configuration that integrates the transmission and differential into a single housing, which is why fluid capacities are expressed as a combined transaxle volume rather than a separate gearbox figure.
