Additional Notes

  • The London Taxi Company TX rear differential capacity holds at 1.8 liters across all TX4 variants, covering the 2.4, Euro 4, Euro 5, and Euro 6 engine configurations from 2006 through 2017. This figure represents a service fill level, meaning the amount of fluid required when refilling a differential that remains installed in the vehicle rather than a fully stripped and rebuilt unit.
  • The TXI (1997-2002) carries a slightly larger rear differential capacity of 1.96 liters, while the TXII (2002-2006) specifies 1.9 liters. Both values sit above the 1.8-liter figure used across all TX4 variants, reflecting minor dimensional differences in the differential housings across generations.
  • A first-change-only interval of 3,000 miles applies to the rear differential on the TX4 2.4 (2013-2016), TX4 Euro 5 (2012-2015), and TX4 Euro 6 (2015-2017). A first-change-only interval addresses the break-in period of a new or rebuilt differential, during which metal particles shed from gear surfaces accumulate in the fluid more rapidly than during normal long-term operation.
  • Under normal use conditions, the TX4 2.4 (2013-2016) and TX4 Euro 5 (2012-2015) share a rear differential change interval of 60,000 miles, alongside a check interval of 10,000 miles.
  • The TX4 Euro 6 (2015-2017) specifies a shorter normal-use change interval of 45,000 miles compared to the 60,000-mile interval on the TX4 2.4 and TX4 Euro 5, while retaining the same 10,000-mile check interval.
  • The TX4 Euro 4 (2006-2012) under normal use conditions lists only a check interval of 10,000 miles, with no change interval specified in the row data. The capacity of 1.8 liters remains consistent with the other TX4 variants.
