BYD G3

Brake fluid capacity & service interval

BYD G3 brake fluid capacity is 0,8-1 liter. Service intervals include checking every 5000 km or 3 months and changing every 20000 km or 12 months. The data covers 3 configurations.

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

Additional Notes

  • The BYD G3 hydraulic brake system holds between 0.8 and 1 liter of brake fluid across all three engine variants covered in the 2009-2014 model range, reflecting a capacity range rather than a fixed single value.
  • A capacity expressed as a range, such as 0.8-1 liter, typically accounts for minor variation between individual units during a service fill, rather than representing a difference between a dry fill and a post-overhaul refill.
  • The check interval for brake fluid is set at every 5,000 km or 3 months under normal use conditions, whichever comes first, across the 1.5 QCJ7152A, 1.5 QCJ7152A3, and 1.8 QCJ7182A3/A4 engine configurations.
  • The change interval is specified at 20,000 km or 12 months under normal use conditions, meaning brake fluid in the G3 is renewed on an annual basis or by distance, whichever milestone is reached first.
  • The check-to-change ratio stands at 1:4 by distance, with four inspection points occurring for every one full fluid replacement cycle across all listed G3 variants.
  • The 1.5-liter variants, identified by engine codes QCJ7152A and QCJ7152A3, share identical brake fluid capacity and service interval specifications with the larger 1.8-liter QCJ7182A3/A4 variant, indicating no engine displacement-based differentiation in brake system servicing requirements.
