How much transmission oil should be added to the 1.6L manual transmission of the New Focus?
1 Answers
The 1.6L manual transmission of the New Focus requires approximately 4 to 6 liters of transmission oil for a manual oil change (gravity drain method). If an oil change machine is used, around 9 to 12 liters will be needed. Different vehicle models have different replacement intervals. Below are the recommended replacement intervals for transmission oil: Manual Transmission: Manual transmission oil is generally recommended to be replaced every three years or approximately every 100,000 kilometers. Automatic Transmission: Automatic transmission oil is typically recommended to be replaced every two years or approximately every 40,000 kilometers. Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT): CVT transmission oil is usually recommended to be replaced every two years or approximately every 60,000 kilometers. The methods for changing transmission oil are as follows: 1. Loosen the drain plug at the bottom of the transmission to drain the old oil before refilling. 2. Remove the transmission oil pan directly to drain and refill the oil: This method is more thorough than the first one, as it helps remove impurities settled at the bottom of the oil pan. 3. Use a circulation machine to change automatic transmission oil: A smart circulation machine enables dynamic oil changes, filtering and cleaning sludge and impurities inside the automatic transmission.
