Nissan NT500, G40 (EU)

Manual transmission fluid capacity & service interval

Nissan NT500 and G40 (EU) models require manual transmission fluid with a capacity of 2,2 liters. Service intervals include checking at 40000 km or 24 months, and changing at 120000 km or 24 months, or 240000 km. The data covers 2 configurations.

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

Additional Notes

  • The Nissan NT500 G40 (EU) manual transmission holds 2.2 liters of fluid, a figure that applies consistently across both normal and severe use conditions for the 2013-2018 model years.
  • Under normal use, the manual transmission fluid inspection interval is set at 40,000 km or 24 months, whichever comes first, rather than a full drain-and-fill service at that point.
  • The normal use change interval extends to 240,000 km, which is a notably long drain interval reflecting low-stress operating conditions over the life of the transmission.
  • Under severe use, the change interval is reduced to 120,000 km or 24 months, cutting the normal-use drain interval in half while introducing a time-based limit of 24 months that does not appear in the normal-use change specification.
  • The severe use specification combines both a distance and a time threshold for the fluid change, meaning whichever of the two limits is reached first would trigger a service, whereas the normal use change interval is expressed only as a distance figure.
