Additional Notes

  • All four configurations listed cover the Renault Midlum (EU) in 4x4 form, specifically the 270 DXi and 300 DXi Euro 5 variants spanning 2009-2014, and each carries a transfer case fluid capacity of 5.5 liters.
  • A 5.5-liter transfer case fill is a relatively substantial volume for a commercial vehicle transfer box, consistent with a unit designed for load-bearing four-wheel-drive operation rather than light-duty use.
  • Under normal use conditions, the 270 DXi (4x4) transfer case fluid change interval is set at 60,000 km or 24 months, whichever comes first.
  • Under severe use conditions, the same 270 DXi (4x4) transfer case fluid change interval is halved to 30,000 km, while the 24-month time limit remains unchanged.
  • The 300 DXi (4x4) mirrors the 270 DXi exactly across both use conditions, with a 60,000 km or 24-month interval for normal use and a 30,000 km or 24-month interval for severe use.
  • The 24-month time-based limit applying to both normal and severe conditions means a calendar ceiling exists regardless of how few kilometers have accumulated, which is a common practice for fluid-filled drivetrain components subject to moisture ingress and thermal cycling.
  • The capacity figure of 5.5 liters is identical across all four rows, indicating no difference in transfer case size between the 270 DXi and 300 DXi engine variants in the 4x4 configuration.
