The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

TypeSpecifications
  • Swift 1.6 4x4, SF416 (1991-1997)
  • Rear

Additional Notes

  • The Suzuki Swift II, EA, MA SF416 1.6 4x4 rear differential holds 1.2 liters of fluid, a capacity consistent with a compact rear axle assembly typical of light all-wheel-drive passenger vehicles from the early 1990s.
  • The 1.2-liter rear differential capacity applies to a service fill context, meaning the volume expected when topping off or replacing fluid during routine maintenance rather than a full overhaul teardown.
  • The check interval for the rear differential is set at every 10,000 km or 6 months, whichever comes first, reflecting a schedule designed to monitor fluid condition and level between full drain-and-fill services.
  • The change interval is specified at 20,000 km or 12 months under normal use conditions, placing the full fluid replacement on a cycle twice as long as the inspection interval.
  • The normal use condition tied to the 20,000 km / 12-month change interval distinguishes standard driving environments from more demanding operating conditions, which would typically warrant shorter service cycles.
  • The SF416 designation identifies the 1.6-liter 4x4 variant as the sole configuration within the 1991-1997 Swift II, EA, MA range for which rear differential fluid specifications are recorded, as the 4x4 drivetrain is the only layout requiring a rear differential service entry.
