Additional Notes
- The Austin A105 carries a rear differential fluid capacity of 1.7 liters, which represents a service fill volume typical of a conventional rear axle housing on a mid-size passenger car of the era.
- Under normal use conditions, the A105 (1956-1959) rear differential is specified for a fluid check interval of 1,500 km, reflecting a relatively short inspection cycle consistent with maintenance practices common to vehicles of that period.
- The change interval for the rear differential fluid on the A105 is set at 9,000 km under normal use conditions, meaning a full drain and refill is due roughly every six check cycles.
- The Austin A105 Vanden Plas (1957-1959) shares an identical rear differential fluid capacity of 1.7 liters with the standard A105, indicating no mechanical differentiation in the rear axle assembly between the two variants.
- The check and change intervals for the A105 Vanden Plas rear differential are also identical to the standard A105, with 1,500 km for checks and 9,000 km for fluid changes under normal use conditions.
