Additional Notes

  • The front differential on the Subaru Impreza GJ/GP 2.0i, which is integrated with the CVT unit, carries a fluid capacity of 1.2 to 1.35 liters, a range that reflects the variation expected during a service fill depending on drain completeness rather than a fixed single value.
  • The rear differential on the 2.0i across the 2012-2016 model years holds a notably smaller capacity of 0.8 liters, consistent with the compact housing typical of rear differentials in symmetrical all-wheel-drive layouts where the rear unit is a secondary assembly.
  • The front differential capacity of 1.2 to 1.35 liters remains unchanged between the 2012-2015 and 2015-2016 model year groupings of the 2.0i, indicating no revision to the CVT-integrated differential housing volume across those production periods.
  • Similarly, the rear differential capacity of 0.8 liters is consistent across both the 2012-2015 and 2015-2016 specifications, pointing to a stable rear differential assembly throughout the covered model years.
  • All four specification rows carry a normal use condition, meaning the listed capacities apply under standard operating circumstances rather than severe-duty or first-change scenarios.
