Additional Notes
- The Irisbus Arway's automatic transmission carries a fluid capacity of 28 liters across both the 10-13m and 15m Euro 4 body lengths, a figure consistent with large-format coach transmissions where the pan, torque converter, and cooler circuit together account for a substantial combined volume.
- For the 28-liter automatic transmission under normal use conditions, the change interval is set at 60,000 km or 24 months, whichever comes first, applying equally to both the 10-13m and 15m variants.
- Under extended use conditions, the same 28-liter automatic transmission carries a doubled distance interval of 120,000 km, paired with a longer 36-month time limit, reflecting a less frequent service cycle compared to the normal use schedule.
- A separate 15.5-liter capacity entry exists for the 10-13m Euro 4 automatic transmission under normal use, with a notably longer interval of 150,000 km or 36 months, suggesting a different transmission unit or a partial service fill rather than a full drain-and-refill procedure.
- The 15m Euro 4 body length introduces an additional drivetrain configuration not present in the 10-13m specification: an automated transmission combined with an intarder, which is a hydrodynamic retarder integrated into the gearbox used for sustained speed reduction without engaging the service brakes.
- The automated transmission with intarder on the 15m variant holds a fluid capacity of 21 liters, and under normal use conditions the change interval is 300,000 km or 24 months, a considerably longer distance threshold than the 60,000 km interval assigned to the conventional automatic transmission under the same use condition.
- A first-change-only entry for the 15m automated transmission with intarder specifies a 540,000 km or 36-month interval at the same 21-liter capacity, indicating a single scheduled fluid exchange at that mileage or time point rather than a recurring service cycle.
