Additional Notes

  • The Audi Cabriolet B3 (USA) 2.8 V6 (128 kW) carries a differential fluid capacity of 0.5-1 liter across both the 1994-1996 and 1996-2000 configurations, with both noted as sourced from automatic transmission setups.
  • A capacity range of 0.5-1 liter, rather than a fixed value, is characteristic of a service fill specification, where the actual amount required depends on the current fluid level rather than a full drain and refill from empty.
  • The 1996-2000 configuration introduces a defined service interval of 15,000 miles or 24 months under normal use conditions, a detail absent from the 1994-1996 row.
  • The 24-month time limit paired with the 15,000-mile distance interval in the 1996-2000 specification means the differential fluid is due for attention when either threshold is reached first, whichever comes sooner under normal operating conditions.
