Additional Notes
- Across all listed Toyota RAV4 A2 (EU) configurations spanning 2000-2006, the rear differential fluid capacity is 0.9 liter, a figure consistent with a service fill rather than an overhaul capacity, as rear differentials in compact SUVs of this era typically hold modest volumes suited to routine drain-and-fill procedures.
- The 0.9 liter capacity applies equally to both the 2.0 16V VVT-i petrol variants and the 2.0 D4-D diesel variants, indicating no differentiation in rear differential hardware between the two engine families across the covered model years.
- All five listed configurations share an identical change interval of 30,000 km or 48 months, whichever comes first, under normal use conditions.
- The 48-month time limit on the fluid change interval means that even low-mileage vehicles accumulate a service obligation based on calendar time alone, independent of distance traveled.
- The 2.0 16V VVT-i engine appears across three consecutive sub-generation spans from 2000-2006, yet the rear differential fluid capacity and change interval remain unchanged at 0.9 liter and 30,000 km/48 months throughout.
- The 2.0 D4-D diesel configurations, covering 2001-2006 across two sub-spans, carry the same 30,000 km/48-month interval as the petrol variants, reflecting a unified rear differential service schedule regardless of powertrain type.
