Additional Notes

  • The rear differential fluid capacity across all Zotye 5008 configurations is 1.3 liters, a figure consistent with a service fill rather than a full overhaul, which typically requires a larger volume to account for complete disassembly and cleaning of the housing.
  • The 1.3-liter engine variants paired with transmission codes JNJ6405A, JNJ6406A1, and JNJ6406AC carry a normal-use rear differential fluid change interval of 5,000 km, which is notably shorter than the 10,000 km interval assigned to the 1.5-liter variants.
  • A first-change-only interval of 2,500 km applies to the 1.3-liter JNJ6405A/JNJ6406A1/JNJ6406AC configuration, meaning the initial fluid change is scheduled at half the distance of the subsequent normal-use interval of 5,000 km. Early changes at reduced intervals are standard practice for breaking in new mechanical components where metal particles accumulate in the fluid.
  • The 1.5-liter variant with transmission codes JNJ6405B and JNJ6406B1, introduced from 2008, shares the same 1.3-liter rear differential fluid capacity as the 1.3-liter engine variants while operating on a 10,000 km normal-use change interval.
  • The 1.5-liter JNJ6406C1 variant, introduced from 2011, also specifies a 1.3-liter rear differential fluid capacity and a 10,000 km normal-use change interval, matching the specifications of the earlier JNJ6405B/JNJ6406B1 configuration despite being a distinct transmission code.
