Additional Notes

  • Across all six variants of the Iveco Daily 38 listed for 2024, the manual transmission fluid capacity is specified as a range of 1.8 to 2.2 liters. A range rather than a fixed value typically reflects variation between a drain-and-refill service fill and the full system capacity, accounting for fluid retained in passages and components during a standard service.
  • The Daily 38 S 12 and Daily 38 S 14 share an identical interval of 350,000 km or 120 months under normal use conditions. The 120-month figure equals a 10-year calendar limit, meaning whichever threshold is reached first would trigger a fluid change.
  • The Daily 38 S 16, Daily 38 S 16 3.0, Daily 38 S 18, and Daily 38 S 21 all carry the same 350,000 km distance interval under normal use, but the time-based limit for these variants is 60 months rather than 120 months. At 60 months, the calendar interval equals 5 years, half the duration specified for the S 12 and S 14.
  • The split in time-based intervals between the lower-output variants (S 12, S 14) and the higher-output variants (S 16 and above) is notable. Despite sharing the same 350,000 km mileage threshold and the same 1.8–2.2 liter capacity range, the calendar replacement cycle differs by a factor of two across these groups.
  • The Daily 38 S 16 appears in two distinct configurations: a standard S 16 and an S 16 3.0, the latter designation indicating a 3.0-liter engine variant. Both share identical manual transmission fluid specifications, with the same capacity range and the same 350,000 km / 60-month interval under normal conditions.
  • All six variants carry normal use condition designations for the listed intervals. In commercial vehicle servicing, normal use intervals are generally associated with standard operating cycles, as opposed to severe use schedules that apply to vehicles operating under sustained heavy loads, frequent stop-start cycles, or extreme temperature environments.
