Additional Notes

  • The Borgward P100 2300 rear differential holds 1.75 liters at dry fill, a figure that applies when the housing is completely empty, such as after a rebuild or component replacement.
  • The service fill capacity for the P100 2300 rear differential is 1.5 liters, reflecting the smaller volume needed when residual fluid remains in the housing during a routine drain-and-refill.
  • The 0.25-liter difference between the dry fill and service fill values on the P100 2300 rear differential represents fluid retained in the housing, bearings, and gear surfaces after draining.
  • Under normal use conditions, the P100 2300 rear differential calls for a fluid level check at 4,000 km intervals.
  • The change interval for the P100 2300 rear differential under normal use conditions is set at 12,000 km, three times the length of the check interval.
