6.1. Oil Quantity Discrepancies

Some users have reported that the provided oil quantity may not be sufficient for certain Kawasaki Mule models, particularly the PRO FXT 1000, which may require more than 3 quarts of engine oil. Always consult your specific vehicle's service manual for the exact fluid capacities required for your model and engine size. If the kit's quantity is insufficient, purchase additional OEM-specified fluids as needed.

6.2. Oil Filter Fitment Issues

Reports indicate that the oil filter in the kit may not fit all specified models, particularly newer models like the 2024/2025 Kawasaki Mule PRO FXT 1000. Before beginning the service, compare the new filter (Part Number: 16097-0010) with the filter currently installed on your vehicle to ensure proper fitment and thread compatibility. If the filter does not match, obtain the correct OEM oil filter for your specific model.
