Typically between 40,000 km to 80,000 km or annually. Consult specific vehicle service records. Fluid Specifications Engine Oil Type: API CI-4, CI-4 PLUS, CJ-4 or ACEA E7, E9 (typically low SAPS for modern engines). Refer to owner's manual for exact specification and viscosity (e.g., 10W-40, 15W-40). Coolant Type: Ethylene glycol based OAT (Organic Acid Technology) coolant, often silicate-free. DAF recommends specific long-life coolants (e.g., specification TL-LF 26002). Transmission Fluid Type Zf As Tronic: Specific ZF TE-ML series transmission oil (e.g., TE-ML 01, TE-ML 12). Known Issues Electrical Concerns: Corrosion in connectors, faulty sensors (e.g., ABS speed sensors, engine position sensors), wiring harness chafing, issues with ECAS control modules, CAN bus communication errors. Engine Related: Injector issues, EGR valve problems, DPF regeneration failures (on later models within the CF series range). Transmission Related: Clutch actuator faults, mechatronic unit issues on AS Tronic transmissions. 📚 Vehicle History Brand Heritage Daf Trucks: Long-standing Dutch truck manufacturer, part of PACCAR Inc. Model Evolution Cf Series Development: Successor to earlier DAF truck ranges, focusing on medium-duty to heavy-duty distribution and long-haul applications. CF65 as lighter duty, CF75 and CF85 as heavier duty variants. Production Production Years: CF65/CF75/CF85 series generally produced from early 2000s through the mid-2010s (pre-Euro 6 transition of the CF naming convention). Specific model years covered by the manual would depend on its original publication date but likely span a significant portion of this era. Manufacturing Locations: Primary manufacturing in Eindhoven, Netherlands, and Leyland, United Kingdom. 🏆 Awards & Recognition Recognitions Industry Acclaim: DAF trucks are consistently recognized for fuel efficiency, driver comfort, and reliability in the commercial vehicle sector.
