Additional Notes

  • The rear differential on the Ford Five Hundred 3.0 V6 24V 4WD carries a fluid capacity of 0.7 liter, which is a relatively modest volume consistent with a compact rear differential unit rather than a full axle assembly requiring a larger service fill.
  • The inspection interval for the rear differential fluid is set at 48,000 km under normal use conditions, meaning routine driving without sustained towing, off-road operation, or other demanding workloads triggers the 48,000 km check point.
  • The change interval of 240,000 km under normal use conditions is notably extended, reflecting a long-drain specification that applies specifically to non-severe driving cycles across the 2004-2007 model years.
  • The gap between the 48,000 km check interval and the 240,000 km change interval indicates that fluid condition monitoring through periodic inspection is built into the service schedule before a full drain and refill is required.
  • The 0.7 liter capacity figure applies to the rear differential specifically, as the note distinguishes the rear unit from any other drivetrain fluid points on the 4WD configuration.
