Additional Notes

  • All five configurations listed for the Volvo S80 124 share a rear differential fluid capacity of 0.7 liter, which is a service fill figure representing the amount of fluid the unit holds during normal maintenance rather than a full overhaul quantity.
  • The 3.0 T6 (210 kW) AWD from 2008-2011 and the 3.0 T6 (224 kW) AWD from 2011-2013 both carry a check interval of 15000 miles under normal use conditions, meaning the rear differential fluid level is to be inspected at each 15000-mile service.
  • The 3.0 T6 (224 kW) AWD from 2013-2015 has a check interval of 20000 miles under normal use conditions, which is a longer interval than the earlier 224 kW variant covering 2011-2013 despite sharing the same 0.7-liter capacity.
  • The shift in check interval from 15000 miles to 20000 miles between the two 3.0 T6 (224 kW) AWD generations represents the only interval variation present across the five listed configurations.
  • The 4.4 V8 AWD, spanning 2007-2008 and 2009-2011 as two separate entries, maintains a consistent 0.7-liter capacity and a 15000-mile check interval under normal use conditions across both periods.
  • All specifications listed apply exclusively to normal use conditions, meaning no separate severe-use interval or capacity figure is recorded for any of the five rear differential configurations.
