Additional Notes

  • Across the Fendt Favorit 500 C series, cooling system capacities fall into two distinct groups. The Favorit 509 C and 510 C share a 15.5-liter capacity, while the 511 C, 514 C, and 515 C each require 22 liters. The Favorit 512 C sits between the two groups at 21 liters. These differences reflect the varying engine displacements and cooling demands across the model range.
  • A 15.5-liter cooling system capacity, as seen on the Favorit 509 C and 510 C, is consistent with smaller agricultural tractor engines where the cooling circuit covers the engine block, cylinder head, and a relatively compact radiator assembly.
  • The 22-liter capacity on the 511 C, 514 C, and 515 C indicates a larger engine and associated cooling infrastructure. At this volume, the system typically encompasses additional circuit components such as an oil cooler or intercooler loop integrated into the coolant path.
  • All models specify a coolant level check interval of 250 hours under normal use conditions. In agricultural tractor operation, 250 hours represents a relatively frequent inspection point, reflecting the dusty and thermally demanding environments typical of field work.
  • The standard coolant change interval across most of the range is 2000 hours or 24 months, whichever comes first. The dual-trigger format means calendar time governs the interval even when a machine accumulates hours slowly, since coolant additives degrade chemically over time regardless of engine runtime.
  • The Favorit 515 C (1995-1999) specifies a coolant change interval of 24 months only, without a corresponding hour-based threshold. This differs from the other models in the range, which carry the combined 2000 hours/24 months criterion.
  • The Favorit 511 C and 515 C both carry a starting year of 1995, setting them apart from the 509 C, 510 C, 512 C, and 514 C, all of which have a starting year of 1993 within the same series.
