Additional Notes
- Across all Acura Integra (USA / CAN) configurations listed, brake fluid level is specified by reservoir position rather than a fixed volume, with the correct level falling between the minimum and maximum marks on the reservoir.
- The 36-month change interval applies under normal use conditions across all eight configurations, meaning brake fluid is replaced on a time-based schedule regardless of mileage accumulated.
- Time-based brake fluid service intervals reflect the hygroscopic nature of DOT-grade brake fluids, which absorb moisture from the atmosphere over time, gradually lowering the fluid's boiling point and reducing hydraulic braking performance.
- The 1.8 (106 kW) and 1.8 (125 kW) variants share the same 36-month interval and reservoir-level fill specification, despite the difference in engine output between the two configurations.
- The GS-R and Type R configurations, both covering 1997-2001, carry the same brake fluid service interval as the broader 1.8 variants that span 1996-2001, indicating no performance-trim-specific deviation in brake fluid change frequency.
- The Type R configurations are additionally identified by the DC2 chassis code, which refers to the third-generation Integra body style and distinguishes the Type R from other trim levels sharing the same 1.8-liter displacement designation.
- Canadian and United States market variants within each configuration share identical brake fluid specifications, with no regional difference in fill method or change interval across any of the listed rows.
