Additional Notes

  • All four Nissan Interstar (EU) 2.5 dCi configurations covered in the 2006-2010 model years share an identical automatic transmission fluid capacity of 2.7 liters, indicating a common transaxle unit across the power output range.
  • The transmission type noted across all configurations is a semi-automatic transaxle, which is a layout that combines elements of manual and automatic operation, typically using automated clutch actuation without a conventional torque converter.
  • A 2.7-liter fluid capacity is consistent with a compact transaxle assembly, where the transmission and final drive share a single housing and a common fluid volume rather than separate sumps.
  • The 2.5 dCi engine appears in four distinct output variants within the same model year span: 74 kW, 88 kW, 88 kW with DPF, and 107 kW with DPF. Despite the differences in power output and emissions equipment, the transmission fluid capacity remains uniform at 2.7 liters across all four.
  • The DPF-equipped variants (88 kW and 107 kW) carry the same 2.7-liter transaxle capacity as the non-DPF versions, confirming that the addition of a diesel particulate filter to the drivetrain does not affect the transmission fluid specification.
  • All capacity figures are listed under normal use conditions, meaning the 2.7-liter value applies to standard operating environments rather than severe-duty cycles such as frequent towing, extreme temperatures, or stop-and-go urban operation.
