Additional Notes

  • The Dennis Lance carries a 15-liter automatic transmission fluid capacity across all listed variants, a figure that reflects a combined fill for both the automatic transmission and the integrated intarder unit.
  • An intarder is a hydrodynamic retarder built into the transmission, and its inclusion in the fluid circuit accounts for the relatively high 15-liter capacity compared to a standalone automatic transmission without retardation hardware.
  • The Lance D.D. variant covers the 1993-2001 model years for automatic transmission with intarder service, sharing the same 15-liter capacity as the other variants in the range.
  • The Lance P.S.V. chassis spans a wider model year range of 1990-2001, making it the earliest-starting configuration listed for automatic transmission fluid service among the variants covered.
  • The Lance S.L.F. variant, introduced from 1993, carries the same 15-liter transmission and intarder fluid capacity as the D.D. and P.S.V. chassis configurations.
  • All listed configurations specify normal use conditions, meaning the 15-liter capacity figure applies to standard operating environments rather than severe-duty or first-change-only service scenarios.
