A/T fluid 1.1 litres Dexron IIE
Power steering ? litres Dexron IIE
Brake fluid ? DOT3


M13A (VVT) petrol engine, UK

Type Quantity Specification
Engine oil 4.0 litres SAE 10W-30 not available in UK, back page of UK owners manual advises 5W/30
from late 2016: SAE 0W-20 (recommended for new UK cars in the handbook)
Gearbox oil 1.3 litres API GL-4, SAE 75W-80
Transfer gearbox oil 1.13 litres API GL-4, SAE 75W-90
Differential oil (front) 1.65 litres API GL-5, SAE 80W-90, hypoid
Differential oil (rear) 1.35 litres API GL-5, SAE 80W-90, hypoid
Coolant capacity 5.9 litres TBC
A/T fluid 5.7 litres Dexron III
Power steering ? litres Dexron IIE
Brake fluid ? DOT3


DDiS diesel (K9K engine 48 kW), continental Europe

Type Quantity Specification
Engine Oil 4.0 litres ACEA B3 or B4, SAE "X"W-40
(10W-40 good, 5W-40 better, 0W-40 best)
Gearbox Oil 1.9 litres API GL-4, SAE 75W-90
Transfer gearbox oil
(lever shifted type)
1.2 litres API GL-4, SAE 75W-90
Transfer gearbox oil
(push-button shifted type)
1.13 litres API GL-4, SAE 75W-90
Differential oil (front) 1.65 litres API GL-5, SAE 80W-90, hypoid
Differential oil (rear) 1.35 litres API GL-5, SAE 80W-90, hypoid
Coolant capacity 7.0 l Ethylene glycol non-silicate based
Power steering ? litres Dexron III
Brake fluid ? litres SAE J1703 or DOT3
  • Air filter, oil filter and fuel filter for diesel Jimnys are different than for petrol Jimnys.
  • Most DDiS Jimnys with 48 kW engine have the lever shifted transfer box, while the last production examples from 2005 have the push-button shifted transfer box. Hence two specifications in the above table.

Differential oil (front) 1.65 litres API GL-5, SAE 80W-90, hypoid
Differential oil (rear) 1.35 litres API GL-5, SAE 80W-90, hypoid
Coolant capacity 7.3 l Ethylene glycol non-silicate based
Power steering ? litres Dexron III
Brake fluid ? litres SAE J1703 or DOT3
  • Air filter, oil filter and fuel filter for diesel Jimnys are different than for petrol Jimnys.
