Kubota bx2670
Just did my first engine oil and filter change. The owners manual says 3.7 qts but I've got 4 qts in it now and still barely at the halfway point on dipstick. After replacing oil and filter, I started it and let it run for a couple mins and checked again and again after letting it rest with same results. So is the manual off or is it me? And what oil is everyone running in there front axle, sudt2 or gear oil? Thanks

Not sure about the oil capacity. I would just go by the dipstick.

I use super udt 2 in the front axle when brand new. When it is time to change, I will go with a 80 90 weight gear oil.

Thanks, that's kinda my thoughts too. I was thinking I read somewhere on here that another bx 2670 owner was saying the same and that possibly the manual was off for this model.

I have had three different Kubota tractors and none of the oil caps agreed with the manual. I start by filling to what the manual says, run the engine for a bit and fill to the proper level using the dip stick.

Just changed oil in my BX2670 for the first time yesterday. Could they make the oil filter any more inconvenient??? To answer your question, since the manual called for less than 4 quarts, 4 quarts is all I bought. Took all 4 quarts to get it to the full mark on the dipstick, before running it. Didn't recheck it after starting it, what was the point? Didn't have any more to add? :laughing: I will, however, be rechecking it before using it, and make that trip to town for more if I have to. :thumbsup:

Yeah after starting, it took 4.5 qts to get to full mark

4 quarts put my BX2670 half way between the low and high marks on the dipstick, so yup, I'm in agreement, 4.5 quarts.

I thought maybe Kubota mislabeled in their manual, quarts when they meant liters. Nope, 3.7 liters is 3.9 quarts, still not up to the full mark! :laughing:

Well, now we know. I also found that the front axle fluid capacity seems to be off as well. I put in the 4.7 qts of sudt2 it calls for and was over full. Even after running and working all the little air pockets out. Definately not impressed with the manual. But it gets me close I guess
