Purpose and Specifications

RAVENOL CVT Fluid (1211110-020-01-999) is a specialized automatic transmission fluid designed for continuously variable transmissions (CVT). This 20-liter container is engineered to maintain smooth power delivery in CVT systems by providing consistent fluid pressure and protection across a wide range of engine speeds.

This fluid is formulated to meet the demanding requirements of multiple vehicle manufacturers, including BMW, Ford, Honda, Mazda, Mini Cooper, Nissan, Opel/GM, Subaru, and Volkswagen/Audi. It delivers reliable performance in both cold winter conditions and high-temperature driving situations.

When to Use / Replace?

Replacement Interval: Most CVT systems require fluid changes every 60,000 to 100,000 kilometers (37,000 to 62,000 miles), depending on your vehicle manufacturer's recommendations. Some newer vehicles may have longer intervals—always check your owner's manual.

Operating Temperature Range: This fluid performs effectively from approximately -30°C (-22°F) in cold climates to +150°C (302°F) under heavy driving conditions, ensuring reliable transmission operation year-round.

Shelf Life: When stored in sealed containers in cool, dry conditions, RAVENOL CVT Fluid maintains its quality for approximately 3 to 5 years.

Signs You Need a Fluid Change: Delayed acceleration response, jerky shifting behavior, unusual transmission noise, or a burning smell from the transmission area indicate it's time for a fluid change.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Can I use this fluid in my manual transmission? No. This fluid is specifically formulated for CVT systems only. Using it in manual transmissions or other automatic transmission types will cause damage.
• Is this fluid compatible with my vehicle? RAVENOL CVT Fluid meets specifications for BMW CVT EZL 799A, Ford WSS-M2C-928-A, Honda ATF-DW1, Mazda TFF CVT, Nissan CVT NS-1, Subaru i-CVT, and Volkswagen/Audi G 052 180 series. Verify your vehicle's specific requirement in your owner's manual before purchasing.
• What's the difference between CVT fluid and regular automatic transmission fluid? CVT fluid has a thinner consistency and special additives that allow it to maintain precise pressure control in the belt-and-pulley system of CVT transmissions. Regular ATF is too thick and will cause CVT slippage and overheating.
