Additional Notes

  • The Cupra Formentor 2.0 TDI (110 kW) 4Drive carries a rear differential fluid capacity of 0.95 liter, which represents a notably larger single-unit fill volume compared to the other differential positions listed across the Formentor range.
  • The Formentor VZ 2.0 TFSI (180 kW) PF front axle lock differential holds between 0.4 and 0.6 liter, expressed as a range rather than a fixed value, which reflects an acceptable fill window during servicing rather than a single precise target.
  • A daily check interval is specified for the Formentor VZ 2.0 TFSI (180 kW) PF front axle lock differential, pairing a very frequent inspection requirement with a 24-month fluid change interval under normal use conditions.
  • The Formentor VZ 390 2.5 TSI (287 kW) 4Drive VZ5 PF rear differential is split into two distinct service positions: a central section holding 0.6 liter and outer sections on each side holding 0.4 liter each, meaning a full rear differential service on the VZ5 involves three separate fill points.
  • The outer sections of the VZ5 rear differential carry a change interval of 600,000 km or 48 months under normal use, a notably extended mileage figure that reflects the long-drain characteristics specified for those particular fill points.
  • No fluid change interval is listed for the Formentor 2.0 TDI (110 kW) 4Drive rear differential or the Formentor VZ 390 2.5 TSI (287 kW) 4Drive VZ5 central rear differential position, whereas the VZ5 outer sections and the VZ front axle lock both carry explicit change intervals.
