Ford P100 (EU)

Differential fluid capacity & service interval

Ford P100 (EU) differential fluid capacity is 1,4 liters. Service intervals require checks every 20000 km or 12 months. The data covers 2 configurations.

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

Additional Notes

  • The rear differential fluid capacity across the Ford P100 (EU) lineup is 1.4 liters, a figure consistent with compact rear axle assemblies found in light-duty pickup trucks of the era.
  • Both the standard P100 Pick-up and the 1.8 Turbo Diesel variant share an identical rear differential capacity of 1.4 liters, indicating no variation in axle hardware between the two engine configurations for the 1988-1992 period.
  • The service interval for the rear differential is specified as a check at 20,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first, under normal use conditions.
  • A check interval rather than a drain-and-fill interval suggests the specification is oriented toward fluid level inspection and condition monitoring rather than a mandatory full fluid replacement at each service point.
  • The 12-month time limit paired with the 20,000 km distance means the interval is dual-triggered, so whichever threshold is reached first governs when the rear differential fluid is due for inspection.
