Additional Notes

  • The GMC Terrain (USA / CAN) rear limited slip differential holds 0.75 liter across all listed AWD configurations, covering both the 1.5 and 2.0 engine variants from 2019 onward.
  • A 0.75 liter fill capacity is a relatively small volume, consistent with a compact rear differential unit rather than a larger axle assembly, and reflects a service fill rather than an overhaul quantity.
  • Under normal use conditions, the rear differential fluid change interval is set at 150,000 miles for both the 1.5 AWD and the 2.0 AWD configurations.
  • Under severe use conditions, the change interval is reduced to 75,000 miles, exactly half the normal-use interval, applying equally to the 1.5 AWD across 2019-2022 and the 2.0 AWD across 2019-2020.
  • The 2.0 AWD variant is listed only for 2019-2020, while the 1.5 AWD carries identical capacity and interval specifications across the 2019-2022 range as well as a separate entry starting from 2022.
  • Despite the difference in engine displacement between the 1.5 and 2.0 AWD trims, the rear differential fluid capacity of 0.75 liter and both service intervals remain unchanged across all listed rows, indicating the rear differential unit is shared between those configurations.
