Additional Notes

  • The rear differential fluid capacity for the Toyota Optima / Coaster is 3.8 liters across the 1997-1999, 1999-2006, and 2006 configurations listed in the specifications.
  • A 3.8-liter rear differential capacity is consistent with a larger commercial or bus-class vehicle, where a heavier-duty axle assembly requires a greater fluid volume to maintain adequate lubrication across all internal gearing surfaces.
  • All three configuration rows carry a normal use condition, meaning the listed 3.8-liter capacity applies under standard operating circumstances rather than severe-duty or first-change-only scenarios.
  • No variation in rear differential fluid capacity appears across the 1997-1999 and 1999-2006 model ranges, with both holding the same 3.8-liter service fill figure.
