Iveco Leoncino

Manual transmission fluid capacity & service interval

Iveco Leoncino manual transmission fluid capacity ranges from 2,2 to 2,7 liters. Service intervals occur every 60000 km, 36 months, or 1200 hours. The data covers 6 configurations.

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

Additional Notes

  • The Iveco Leoncino manual transmission fluid capacity splits into two distinct values across the 2010-2013 model range: 2.2 liters for the DL50Y12, DL50Y13, DN35Y12, and DN35Y13 variants, and 2.7 liters for the DL60Y12 and DL60Y13 variants.
  • The 0.5-liter difference between the DL50 and DN35 series on one side and the DL60 series on the other reflects a physically larger gearbox housing in the DL60 variants, which requires a greater fluid volume to maintain adequate lubrication across all internal components.
  • All six configurations share an identical service interval under normal use conditions: 60,000 km, 36 months, or 1,200 hours, whichever threshold is reached first.
  • The triple-trigger interval structure, combining distance, time, and operating hours, is common in light commercial vehicles where annual mileage and engine-on time can vary considerably depending on the application, such as urban delivery versus rural or mixed-use operation.
  • A 36-month maximum interval means that even low-mileage or low-hours units still require a fluid change within three years under normal use conditions, preventing fluid degradation from extended dormancy or infrequent operation.
  • The 1,200-hour threshold is particularly relevant for vehicles used in stop-and-go or idling-heavy duty cycles, where engine hours accumulate faster relative to distance traveled, making the hour-based trigger the first to be reached in such applications.
  • The Y12 and Y13 suffix variants within each series, such as DL50Y12 and DL50Y13, share identical fluid capacities and service intervals, indicating no specification difference between those sub-variants for manual transmission fluid servicing.
