Scania R 500 service
What each system holds and when Scania says to change it, with genuine filters and oils. The oil grade for your build is in its operator's manual.
Loading the 3D machine...

- Engine model
- Scania DC13 500, in-line 6
Fluid: Scania Oil LDF-4 (Euro 6, with diesel of max 10 ppm sulphur); Scania Oil LDF-3 10W-40 where fuel sulphur is higher (Scania Malaysia: Scania Oil)
Dipstick and oil filler are behind the front hatch.
The DC13 Euro 6 needs low-ash oil to keep its particulate filter clean; the wrong oil chokes the filter long before the engine shows wear.
Confirm fluid grades in your machine's operator's manual: they vary by build year and climate.
