Additional Notes

  • The front differential on both the Land Rover LR3 4.0 V6 and 4.4 V8 holds 0.61 liter, a relatively small fill volume consistent with a compact front axle housing rather than a full-size rear carrier assembly.
  • The standard rear differential across both engine variants holds 1.1 liters, nearly double the front differential capacity, which reflects the larger housing and greater load-bearing role of the rear axle.
  • The rear differential fitted with the electronic torque managed (ETM) system carries a noticeably higher capacity of 1.5 liters compared to the 1.1-liter standard rear unit, a difference attributable to the additional internal components of the ETM mechanism requiring fluid coverage.
  • The ETM rear differential is also assigned a significantly shorter service interval of 75,000 miles or 60 months under normal use conditions, compared to the 150,000-mile or 120-month interval shared by both the standard rear and front differentials across all listed configurations.
  • The 4.0 V6 spans model years 2004-2007, while the 4.4 V8 spans 2004-2009, yet both engines share identical differential capacities and service intervals across all three differential positions.
  • A 150,000-mile or 120-month interval for the front and standard rear differentials under normal use conditions represents an extended-life service schedule, placing fluid changes well beyond typical annual maintenance cycles.
