Terberg Swap body carriers

Differential fluid capacity & service interval

Terberg Swap body carriers require differential fluid with a capacity range of 12 to 20 liters. Service intervals include checks at 1000 hours and changes at 100, 2500, or 3000 hours, or 12 months. The data covers 4 configurations.

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

Additional Notes

  • The BC 182 with Mercedes OM904LA Stage 3A engine carries a rear differential fluid capacity listed as a range of 12-15 liters, which reflects variability in fill level depending on the exact configuration or fill method used during service.
  • Under normal use conditions, the BC 182 rear differential requires a fluid check at 1,000 hours and a full fluid change at either 12 months or 2,500 hours, whichever comes first.
  • The BC 182 also specifies an initial service interval for the rear differential, requiring a fluid change at 100 hours under initial service conditions, separate from the standard normal-use change schedule.
  • The Terberg Swap body carrier BC 183 with Stage V / Tier 4f emissions compliance carries a rear differential fluid capacity of 20 liters, a notably higher fixed value compared to the 12-15 liter range on the BC 182.
  • Under normal use conditions, the BC 183 rear differential fluid change interval is set at 3,000 hours, which is a longer interval than the 2,500-hour threshold specified for the BC 182 under the same use condition.
  • The BC 183 specifies a first change only interval of 100 hours for the rear differential, matching the initial service interval on the BC 182 in hours but classified under a distinct use condition category.
  • The fixed 20-liter capacity on the BC 183, as opposed to the ranged 12-15 liters on the BC 182, suggests a larger or differently designed differential assembly in the Stage V / Tier 4f configuration introduced from 2021.
