Renault Duster, H79 (EU)

Transfer case fluid capacity & service interval

The Renault Duster, H79 (EU) uses transfer case fluid with a capacity of 0.3 liter. The data covers 6 configurations.

Additional Notes

  • All 4x4 variants of the Renault Duster H79 (EU) share a uniform transfer case fluid capacity of 0.3 liter, which is a notably small volume consistent with the compact, single-speed transfer units commonly found in light-duty all-wheel-drive systems of this class.
  • A 0.3 liter fill capacity indicates a service-fill specification rather than an overhaul or dry-fill figure. Overhaul capacities account for fluid retained in internal passages and components, whereas a service fill reflects only the volume required during a standard drain-and-refill procedure.
  • The 0.3 liter capacity applies uniformly across both diesel variants — the 1.5 dCi 90 and 1.5 dCi 110 with DPF — covering the full 2010-2018 span, meaning the transfer case unit remained unchanged across those engine outputs and emission configurations.
  • The 1.2 TCe 4x4 carries the same 0.3 liter transfer case capacity as the larger-displacement petrol and diesel variants, despite entering the lineup later in the 2015-2018 period, indicating a shared transfer unit across the H79 generation regardless of engine size.
  • The 1.6 16V 4x4 was available from 2010-2015, a shorter production window than the other petrol variants, yet still shares the identical 0.3 liter transfer case specification, confirming no mechanical differentiation at the transfer case level between the 1.6 and 2.0 petrol units.
  • The 2.0 16V Hi-Flex 4x4 variant, designed to run on ethanol-blended fuels, carries the same 0.3 liter transfer case capacity as the standard 2.0 16V 4x4, reflecting that the flex-fuel adaptation affected the engine rather than the drivetrain hardware.
  • All six configurations are designated under normal use conditions, meaning the specified 0.3 liter capacity applies to standard operating environments rather than severe-duty cycles such as frequent towing, off-road use, or extreme temperature exposure.
