Additional Notes

  • The Subaru XV Crosstrek (USA / CAN) 2.0i front differential, which draws fluid from the CVT, carries a capacity range of 1.35-1.4 liters in the 2012-2013 model years, reflecting a fill tolerance rather than a single fixed value.
  • By the 2013-2014 model years, the front differential capacity from the CVT narrows to a single fixed value of 1.4 liters, sitting at the upper end of the earlier range.
  • The 2014-2015 2.0i front differential capacity from the CVT drops to 1.2 liters, a reduction compared to both the 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 specifications.
  • Across all three model year groupings — 2012-2013, 2013-2014, and 2014-2015 — the rear differential capacity remains constant at 0.8 liters, indicating no change in rear differential design or fill requirement across the covered period.
  • All six capacity entries carry a normal use condition, meaning none of the listed differential fluid specifications are associated with a severe-duty or first-change interval distinction.
  • The front differential fluid source being the CVT, rather than a standalone differential housing, means the 1.2-1.4 liter capacity figures reflect a shared fluid circuit rather than an independent gear case fill.
