1998 xcv70 full transmission fluid capacity

Post by thaedge »

Hey all, recently had my transmission out, removed and drained the torque converter drained the cooler etc.

Whats the automatic transmission fluid capacity? I Can't find a correct answer. Haines manual says 4.2 quarts. The 5 quarts I have in there with no signs on the dip stick determined that was a like.

Thanks for any help.

I can't remember exactly but I seem to recall that mine took nearly 2 gallons when I did an engine swap. I did fill it to the full mark initially and then it took quite a bit more after I started the car and shifted it into gear.
