Chery Bonus / Very
Brake fluid capacity & service interval
Chery Bonus / Very requires brake fluid with a capacity range between min and max. Service intervals occur every 40000 km or 48 months. The data covers 2 configurations.
The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.
| Type | Specifications |
|---|---|
| A3 / Bonus 1.5, A19 (2013-2019) |
|
| A3 / Bonus 1.5 (2008-2012) |

Additional Notes
- The Chery Bonus / Very hydraulic brake/clutch system follows a fill level defined by the reservoir's minimum and maximum markers rather than a fixed volume, which is characteristic of brake fluid servicing where the level is maintained within a range rather than measured by a precise capacity figure.
- The service interval for the A3 / Bonus 1.5 (2008-2012) hydraulic brake/clutch system is set at 40,000 km or 48 months under normal use conditions, meaning whichever threshold is reached first triggers a fluid change.
- The A3 / Bonus 1.5 and A19 variants from 2013-2019 share the same 40,000 km or 48-month interval as the earlier 2008-2012 A3 / Bonus 1.5, indicating no change in brake fluid service frequency across the two generation groupings.
- The 48-month time limit on the brake fluid interval reflects the hygroscopic nature of brake fluid, which absorbs moisture over time regardless of mileage, making the calendar-based threshold relevant even in low-mileage applications.
- Both row entries specify normal use conditions, meaning the 40,000 km and 48-month intervals are not adjusted for severe driving patterns such as frequent heavy braking or extreme temperature exposure.
