Additional Notes

  • The Lexus NX, XZ10 (EU) rear differential on the NX 200t AWD and NX 300 AWD (AGZ) holds between 0.45 and 0.55 liter, which is a relatively small service fill volume consistent with a compact rear differential unit rather than a full axle assembly.
  • The NX 300h AWD (AYZ) rear electric drive differential holds 1.8 liters, a noticeably larger capacity than the AGZ variants, reflecting the additional fluid volume required by the integrated electric motor drive unit.
  • All AGZ variants across the 2014-2021 period share an identical change interval of 30,000 km or 48 months under normal use conditions, with no variation between the NX 200t and NX 300 designations.
  • The AYZ rear electric drive differential specifies a fluid check at 45,000 km or 36 months under normal use, without a mandatory fluid change interval attached to that condition.
  • Under severe use conditions, the NX 300h AWD (AYZ) adds a fluid change interval of 90,000 km or 72 months on top of the 45,000 km or 36-month check, making the change interval exactly double the check interval in both distance and time.
  • The AGZ and AYZ platforms carry fundamentally different service structures: the AGZ specifies only a change interval, while the AYZ specifies a check interval separately from any change requirement, distinguishing the two drivetrain architectures in maintenance terms.
  • The NX 300 AWD (AGZ) spans two separate specification rows covering 2017-2019 and 2019-2021, yet both rows carry identical capacity and interval values, indicating no specification change occurred at the 2019 model year boundary for that variant.
