Additional Notes

  • Both the 2.0 JTS and 3.2 V6 24V variants share a brake fluid capacity of 0.45 liter, which is a typical reservoir-level service fill figure rather than a full system overhaul volume.
  • The Alfa Romeo Spider 916 (EU) 3.2 V6 24V carries an additional note specifying an ABS-equipped hydraulic brake/clutch system, whereas the 2.0 JTS is noted only as a hydraulic brake/clutch system without that designation.
  • Despite the difference in engine configuration, both variants share an identical change interval of 60,000 km or 24 months under normal use conditions, whichever comes first.
  • The check interval differs notably between the two engines. The 2.0 JTS specifies a fluid check at 500 km, while the 3.2 V6 24V specifies a check at 20,000 km under the same normal use condition.
  • A 500 km check interval on the 2.0 JTS is an unusually short figure, consistent with an early inspection point rather than a routine maintenance cycle, and stands in sharp contrast to the 20,000 km check interval on the 3.2 V6 24V.
