CFMoto CF 500 4x4

Differential fluid capacity & service interval

CFMoto CF 500 4x4 differential fluid capacity ranges from 0,25 to 0,33 liters. Service intervals include checks at 250 to 400 km, 1 month, or 25 hours, and changes every 12 months. The data covers 9 configurations.

Additional Notes

  • Across all listed CFMoto CF 500 4x4 configurations, the front differential dry fill capacity is 0.33 liter, while the service fill capacity is 0.28 liter. The difference between dry fill and service fill reflects the volume retained in the housing after a drain, meaning a complete overhaul requires more fluid than a routine fluid change.
  • The rear differential on the CF 500 AU-6L 4x4 and X550, CF 500(-6) 4x4 Terracross, CF 500(-A) 4x4, and CF 500-2(A) configurations holds 0.3 liter at dry fill and 0.25 liter at service fill. The 0.05-liter gap between dry and service fill is consistent across all rear differential entries in these variants.
  • The CF 500-3 Rancher rear differential lists a single capacity value of 0.33 liter with no separate service fill figure. This contrasts with all other rear differential entries, which specify both dry and service fill values.
  • The CF 500(-A) 4x4, covering model years 2008-2012, specifies a front and rear differential fluid check interval of every 250 km, 1 month, or 25 hours, whichever comes first. The same check interval applies to the CF 500-2(A) starting from 2013.
  • The CF 500(-6) 4x4 Terracross, introduced in 2013, carries a slightly longer check interval of 400 km, 1 month, or 25 hours for both front and rear differentials, compared to the 250 km threshold on the CF 500(-A) 4x4 from 2008-2012.
  • All configurations that list a change interval specify 12 months for both front and rear differentials. A time-based annual interval is common in applications where mileage or hours may accumulate slowly, ensuring fluid degradation from moisture and heat cycling is still addressed on a fixed schedule.
  • The CF 500 AU-6L 4x4 and X550, starting from 2014, list capacity values for both front and rear differentials but include no check or change interval data in the specifications. The CF 500-3 Rancher rear differential similarly lists only a capacity and a 12-month change interval, with no check interval specified.
