Additional Notes

  • The INFINITI QX60 L50 rear differential holds 0.5 liter across all listed AWD configurations, covering both the 3.5 and Hybrid powertrain variants from 2014-2020. A 0.5-liter capacity is characteristic of a compact rear differential unit, typical in crossover-class all-wheel-drive systems where the rear axle handles a supplementary rather than primary torque role.
  • For the QX60 3.5 AWD and Hybrid AWD under normal use conditions from 2014-2017, the rear differential fluid schedule specifies only a check interval at 10,000 miles or 12 months, with no fluid change listed. A check-only interval under normal use reflects a sealed or low-wear design assumption where fluid degradation is considered minimal in everyday driving conditions.
  • Under severe use conditions, the 2014 and 2015-2017 QX60 3.5 AWD and Hybrid AWD configurations share the same rear differential fluid schedule: a check at 10,000 miles or 12 months and a change at 20,000 miles or 24 months. Severe use typically encompasses towing, frequent short trips, extreme temperatures, or off-road operation, all of which accelerate fluid breakdown.
  • The 2017-2020 QX60 3.5 AWD introduces a notably more aggressive severe-use change interval of 5,000 miles or 6 months for the rear differential fluid, compared to the 20,000-mile or 24-month interval specified for earlier model years under the same condition. A 5,000-mile severe-use interval represents one of the shorter fluid change cycles seen in passenger vehicle differential service schedules.
  • Under normal use, the 2017-2020 QX60 3.5 AWD retains the 10,000-mile or 12-month check interval without a change requirement, maintaining continuity with the 2014-2017 normal-use specification. The divergence between normal and severe intervals in the 2017-2020 range is therefore more pronounced than in earlier configurations.
  • The Hybrid AWD variant carries the same 0.5-liter rear differential capacity and identical service intervals as the 3.5 AWD for the years where both are listed, specifically 2014 and 2015-2017. Despite the powertrain difference, the rear differential unit and associated fluid service requirements appear consistent between the two configurations across those model years.
