BMC Fatih

Differential fluid capacity & service interval

BMC Fatih differential fluid capacity ranges from 17 to 21 liters. Service intervals include 60000 km, 12 months, or 1000 hours, and 40000 km, 6 months, or 500 hours. The data covers 6 configurations.

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

Additional Notes

  • The BMC Fatih 180 4x2/6x2 rear differential holds 17 liters, while the Fatih 280 6x2 rear differential holds a notably larger 21 liters, reflecting the greater demands of the heavier 280 configuration.
  • Across all listed configurations, the rear differential fluid capacity figure represents a service fill volume, as no separate overhaul or dry-fill capacity is specified in the data.
  • For the Fatih 180 4x2/6x2 Euro 1 and Euro 4 variants, the long distance use condition carries a change interval of 60,000 km, 12 months, or 1,000 hours, whichever comes first.
  • Under all other conditions, the Fatih 180 4x2/6x2 rear differential fluid interval tightens considerably to 40,000 km, 6 months, or 500 hours, cutting both the mileage and time thresholds by a third compared to long distance use.
  • The Fatih 280 6x2 Euro 2 shares the same interval structure as the Fatih 180 variants, with 60,000 km, 12 months, or 1,000 hours under long distance use, and 40,000 km, 6 months, or 500 hours under all other conditions.
  • The three-part interval format, combining distance, time, and operating hours, is characteristic of commercial vehicle specifications where engine-hour meters are common, particularly in vehicles used in non-road or mixed-duty cycles.
  • The Euro 1 and Euro 4 versions of the Fatih 180 4x2/6x2 share an identical rear differential capacity of 17 liters and identical service intervals across both use conditions, indicating no change in differential specification between emission standard generations for that model.
