Gear OilSpecified Gear OilWhen replacing gear oil, use gear oil with
the appropriate viscosity and grade as
shown in the charts below.
We highly recommend you use:
“SUZUKI GEAR OIL 75W-80” for manual
transaxle gear oil
Manual transaxle (API GL-4)
80J2087
We highly recommend you use:
API GL-5 hypoid gear oil SAE 80W-90 for
rear differential oil (i-AWD) and transfer oil
of CVT model (i-AWD)

Gear Oil Level CheckThe manual transaxle, transfer gears (i-
AWD CVT) and rear differential (i-AWD)
are lubricated with gear oil. To check the
gear oil level in any of the above locations,
use the following procedure:
1) Park the vehicle on a level surface. Set
parking brake and stop the engine.
2) Remove the oil filler plug (1).
For the manual transaxle;
3) If gear oil flow from the plug hole, the oil
level is correct. Reinstall the plug.
If gear oil do not flow from the plug
hole, add oil through the filler plug hole
until a little oil flow from the plug hole.
For the transfer and rear differential;
3) Check the inside of the hole with your
finger. If the oil level comes up to the
bottom of the plug hole, the oil level is
correct. If so, reinstall the plug.
4) If the oil level is low, add gear oil
through the filler plug hole (1) until the
oil level reaches the bottom of the filler
hole.Gear Oil ReplacementSince special procedures, materials and
tools are required, it is recommended that
you trust this job to your authorized
SUZUKI dealer.
Clutch Pedal
80J004
Check the clutch pedal for smooth opera-
tion and clutch fluid level from time to time.
If clutch dragging is felt with the pedal fully
depressed, have the clutch inspected by
your SUZUKI dealer. If the clutch fluid level
is near the “MIN” line, fill it up to the “MAX”
line with SAE J1703 or DOT3 brake fluid. Oil Filler Plug
