Deutz-Fahr AgroXtra

Manual transmission fluid capacity & service interval

Deutz-Fahr AgroXtra manual transmission fluid capacity ranges from 19 to 44 liters. Service intervals include checks at 500 hours and fluid changes at 1000 hours or 12 months and 2000 hours or 24 months. The data covers 7 configurations.

Additional Notes

  • Across the Deutz-Fahr AgroXtra lineup, transaxle fluid capacities fall into two distinct groups: the smaller DX 3.57 and DX 4.07 share a 19-liter fill, the DX 4.17 sits at 23 liters, and the DX 4.47, DX 4.57, DX 6.07, and DX 6.17 each require 44 liters. The jump from 23 to 44 liters between adjacent models reflects a substantially larger transaxle assembly in the higher-numbered variants.
  • The 44-liter capacity specified for the DX 4.47, DX 4.57, DX 6.07, and DX 6.17 is notably high for a manual transaxle and is consistent with integrated transmission-axle housings common in agricultural tractors of this era, where a single shared sump serves the gearbox, rear axle, and hydraulic system simultaneously.
  • All seven configurations share a fluid level check interval of 500 hours, regardless of capacity or model variant. In agricultural equipment, hour-based intervals reflect the variable and often intensive seasonal use patterns of tractors, where calendar time alone is an unreliable measure of wear.
  • The DX 3.57 (1992-1996) carries a change interval of 1000 hours or 12 months despite holding only 19 liters, the same interval structure applied to the much larger 44-liter models. A shorter interval relative to the DX 4.07 and DX 4.17 suggests a different service classification for the DX 3.57 transaxle.
  • The Deutz-Fahr AgroXtra DX 4.07 (1991-1996) and DX 4.17 (1991-1996) share an extended change interval of 2000 hours or 24 months under normal use conditions. At 2000 hours, a fluid change would typically occur only once or twice across a full working season cycle, making the calendar limit of 24 months the more likely trigger in lower-utilization applications.
  • The DX 4.17 holds 23 liters compared to the DX 4.07's 19 liters, yet both share identical check and change intervals. The 4-liter difference in capacity between otherwise interval-matched models points to a physical size variation in the transaxle housing rather than a difference in service classification.
  • The DX 4.47 (1993-1995) and DX 4.57 (1990-1995) both specify 44-liter capacity with a 1000-hour or 12-month change interval. Despite the DX 4.57 having a longer production span beginning in 1990, both models align on identical fluid volume and service timing under normal conditions.
  • The DX 6.07 and DX 6.17, both covering 1991-1995, carry the same 44-liter capacity and 1000-hour or 12-month change interval as the DX 4.47 and DX 4.57. The six-cylinder designation in the model number indicates a larger engine class, yet the transaxle fluid specification remains consistent across all four of these variants.
