Additional Notes

  • The MAN LE-B transfer case fluid capacity is 5 liters across all LE 18.225 B LA, LE 18.255 B LA, and LE 18.285 B LA (4x4) variants for the 2001-2006 model years, indicating a consistent service fill volume regardless of engine output designation.
  • For the LE 18.225 B LA (4x4) operating in the 80,000-90,000 km per 6-month usage band, the transfer case fluid change interval is 3 months, the shortest change interval listed across all usage conditions for the 2001-2006 range.
  • The 45,000-60,000 km per 6-month usage condition on the LE 18.225 B LA (4x4) carries a 6-month fluid change interval, doubling the interval required under the more intensive 80,000-90,000 km per 6-month condition.
  • Under the 30,000-60,000 km per year usage condition, the LE 18.225 B LA (4x4) transfer case requires a fluid check every 6 months alongside a full fluid change every 12 months.
  • The lowest-mileage usage condition listed for the LE 18.225 B LA (4x4), covering under 20,000 km per year, extends the fluid change interval to 24 months while still requiring a check at 6-month intervals.
  • The LE 18.255 B LA and LE 18.285 B LA (4x4) variants each carry only a normal use condition, specifying a 6-month fluid check interval with no fluid change interval listed in the specifications.
