Chrysler 300C, LX (EU)
Differential fluid capacity & service interval
Chrysler 300C, LX (EU) differential fluid capacity ranges from 1,1 to 1,2 liters. Service intervals include checking or changing fluid at 24000, 40000, 48000, or 72000 km, or at 12, 24, 36, or 48 month intervals. The data covers 20 configurations.

Additional Notes
- The Chrysler 300C LX (EU) rear differential fluid capacity across all listed engine variants falls within a narrow range of 1.1 to 1.2 liters. A two-value capacity range of this kind typically reflects two different rear differential unit sizes or axle ratio configurations fitted to the same model, rather than a measurement tolerance.
- For the 3.0 V6 CRD in 2011-2012, the interval structure distinguishes between normal and severe use conditions at the same 40,000 km / 24-month mark, but with different service actions: normal use calls for a fluid check, while severe use calls for a fluid change at that same interval.
- The 3.0 V6 CRD entries for 2012-2014 retain the 40,000 km distance interval but extend the time component from 24 months to 48 months compared to the 2011-2012 entries, applying equally to both the check (normal) and change (severe) actions.
- The 3.6 V6 entries for 2011-2012 carry only severe-use designations and specify two distinct interval actions within the same row: a fluid check at 24,000 km / 24 months and a fluid change at 72,000 km / 36 months. The check interval serves as an intermediate inspection point before the full change interval is reached.
- The 5.7 HEMI V8 in 2011-2012 follows the same dual-action severe-use structure as the 3.6 V6 for that period, with a check at 24,000 km and a change at 72,000 km, but the time limit on the check interval is 12 months rather than the 24 months specified for the 3.6 V6, indicating a more frequent time-based inspection requirement under severe conditions.
- For 2012-2014, both the 3.6 V6 and 5.7 HEMI V8 share identical interval figures of 48,000 km / 48 months for both the normal-use check and the severe-use change, representing a structural alignment between the two engine variants that was not present in the 2011-2012 specifications.
- The shift from a 72,000 km change interval in 2011-2012 to a 48,000 km change interval in 2012-2014 for the 3.6 V6 and 5.7 HEMI V8 under severe use represents a reduction in the distance between required fluid changes across the model year boundary.
- Across all engine variants and model years, the rear differential fluid capacity values of 1.1 and 1.2 liters are consistent, with no engine type carrying a uniquely different capacity figure, indicating the differential unit specification is independent of the engine fitted.
