Hürlimann H-6000

Differential fluid capacity & service interval

Hürlimann H-6000 differential fluid capacity ranges from 13 to 23 liters. Service intervals include checks at 125 and 150 hours, and fluid changes at 1000, 1200, and 3000 hours. The data covers 5 configurations.

Additional Notes

  • The Hürlimann H-6000 series front differential capacities vary by configuration, ranging from 13 liters in the Elite variants to 20 liters in the H-6160, reflecting differences in axle size and load-bearing design across the lineup.
  • The H-6130 rear differential carries 23 liters, a notably larger fill volume than the 13.7-liter front differential on the same model, which is consistent with rear axle assemblies that integrate additional drivetrain components requiring greater fluid volume.
  • Front differential change intervals on the H-6130 (1982-1985) and H-6160 (1982-1985) are set at 1000 hours under normal use conditions, while the H-6115 Elite and H-6135 Elite extend that interval to 1200 hours, also under normal use conditions.
  • The H-6130 rear differential carries a change interval of 3000 hours under normal use conditions, three times longer than the 1000-hour front differential change interval specified for the same model year range.
  • Check intervals on the H-6130 and H-6160 are set at 125 hours under normal use conditions, compared to 150 hours on the Elite variants, indicating a more frequent inspection schedule for the earlier 1982-1985 configurations.
  • The H-6160 front differential capacity of 20 liters is the largest front differential fill volume across all listed configurations, distinguishing it from both the 13-liter Elite variants and the 13.7-liter H-6130 front differential.
  • The H-6115 Elite and H-6135 Elite share identical front differential specifications, with a 13-liter capacity, 150-hour check interval, and 1200-hour change interval under normal use conditions, despite carrying different model designations within the 1989-1996 production range.
