Additional Notes

  • The Fendt 500 Vario S4 AdBlue (DEF) tank capacity is 31 liters across all listed variants, covering the 512, 513, 514, and 516 Vario S4 models in both Profi and ProfiPlus trim levels for 2017-2022.
  • AdBlue, also known as diesel exhaust fluid, is an aqueous urea solution used in selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems to reduce nitrogen oxide emissions in diesel engines meeting modern emissions standards.
  • Each model variant is identified by a distinct serial number prefix, with the 512, 513, 514, and 516 carrying prefixes 435, 436, 437, and 438 respectively, each appearing in two serial number ranges beginning at 00F05001 and 0101.
  • The 31-liter capacity applies uniformly under normal use conditions across all eight listed configurations, meaning no variation in tank size exists between the two serial number ranges within any given model number.
  • A 31-liter DEF tank is a substantial reservoir relative to many on-road vehicles, which is consistent with the higher fuel consumption rates of agricultural tractors, where a proportionally larger DEF volume helps maintain adequate SCR system operation during extended field work.
  • The identical capacity across the 512, 513, 514, and 516 variants suggests a shared tank design within the 500 Vario S4 platform, despite the models representing different power output levels within the same series.
