Additional Notes

  • The Christini AWD 250 and AWD 300 both share a manual transmission fluid capacity of 0.9 liter under normal use conditions, with no separate dry fill and service fill values distinguished in the specifications.
  • The AWD 450 produced from 2012-2014 lists two distinct capacity values: a dry fill of 750 CM3 and a service fill of 650 CM3. The 100 CM3 difference between dry and service fill reflects the residual fluid that remains in the transmission during a routine drain, meaning a full rebuild or new unit assembly requires the larger volume.
  • For the 2012-2014 AWD 450 under normal use, the transmission fluid change interval is set at 1000 km or 6 months, whichever comes first. The initial service condition for the same variant carries a significantly shorter interval of 150 km or 1 month, reflecting the need to flush metal particles and contaminants generated during the break-in period.
  • Starting with the 2015 AWD 450 EXPLORER, DS, and SM variants, the dry fill capacity increased to 900 CM3 and the service fill to 850 CM3, representing a step up from the 750/650 CM3 figures of the earlier 2012-2014 AWD 450.
  • The 2015 AWD 450 EXPLORER, DS, and SM models introduce a three-stage fluid change schedule. The initial service change falls at 150 km or 10 hours, a second change is specified at 1500 km, and normal ongoing changes are set at 3000 km.
  • The AWD 450DS and AWD 450E share identical capacity figures of 900 CM3 dry fill and 850 CM3 service fill. Under normal use, both specify a fluid level check at 2 hours of operation and a change at 15 hours, intervals expressed entirely in operating time rather than distance.
  • The initial service condition for both the AWD 450DS and AWD 450E pairs a fluid level check at 3 months with a change interval of 22000 km or 6 months. The combination of a high kilometer threshold alongside a fixed time limit means the time-based trigger will govern in lower-mileage applications.
