Brabus S/SL/CL

Brake fluid capacity & service interval

Brabus S/SL/CL models require brake fluid with a capacity range of 0,45 to 0,9 liters. The data covers 5 configurations.

The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

TypeSpecifications
CL 5.8 (1999-2002)
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 0,9 liter
CL 6.7 SV12 (1999-2002)
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 0,9 liter
S 6.7 SV12 (1999-2005)
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 0,9 liter
S 5.8 (1998-2005)
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 0,9 liter
SL 7.3 S (1993-2001)
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 0,45 liter

Additional Notes

  • The Brabus S/SL/CL brake fluid capacity splits into two distinct values across the lineup: 0.9 liter for the CL and S configurations, and 0.45 liter for the SL 7.3 S, which is exactly half the volume of the other variants.
  • The 0.9-liter capacity recorded for the CL 5.8 and CL 6.7 SV12 applies to the hydraulic brake system under normal use conditions, covering the 1999-2002 model years shared by both configurations.
  • The CL 6.7 SV12 carries the same 0.9-liter hydraulic brake system capacity as the CL 5.8, indicating no capacity difference between the standard and SV12 engine variants within the CL range for 1999-2002.
  • The S 5.8 and S 6.7 SV12 both share the 0.9-liter hydraulic brake system capacity under normal use conditions, with the S 5.8 spanning 1998-2005 and the S 6.7 SV12 spanning 1999-2005.
  • The Brabus SL 7.3 S hydraulic brake system holds 0.45 liter under normal use conditions across the 1993-2001 model years, a notably lower figure compared to the 0.9-liter capacity seen in the S and CL variants.
  • All five configurations across the S, SL, and CL model lines reference the hydraulic brake system specifically, meaning the listed capacities apply to that system rather than to any supplementary or integrated braking component.
  • All capacity values in the S/SL/CL brake fluid specifications are associated with normal use conditions, with no separate severe-use or first-change-only intervals listed for any of the five configurations.
