Dongfeng Citroen C-Quatre transmission oil filler port location varies depending on the model: 1. Automatic transmission: There are two bolts on the bottom of the transmission case, with the smaller one serving as the oil filler port; 2. Manual transmission: There are two bolts on the transmission housing, with the upper one being the oil filler port. The Dongfeng Citroen C-Quatre is a compact 4-door 5-seater sedan with dimensions of 4588mm in length, 1773mm in width, 1486mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2610mm. It is equipped with a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine producing a maximum power of 86kW at 6000rpm, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.
When I previously worked on my Dongfeng Citroen C-Quatre, I noticed the transmission filler port is typically located at the top side of the transmission housing, near the left front wheel. There's usually a plastic bolt cover that can be removed with a 24mm wrench for adding transmission fluid. After locating it, ensure the car is cold before operating, as hot fluid can burn your hands. I always keep a dedicated funnel handy to prevent spills when pouring the fluid. Although the position is somewhat hidden, you can find it after a few minutes of searching. For maintenance, changing the fluid every two to three years helps ensure smoother gear shifts and prevents wear. If you're a beginner and hesitant about lifting the car for inspection, bring a partner to help stabilize it—safety is crucial. Remember to check the manual for detailed diagrams to be more accurate.
