Chery Cielo
Brake fluid capacity & service interval
Chery Cielo uses brake fluid with a capacity range of 0.5 to 1.0 liters. Service intervals occur every 50000 km or 24 months. The data covers 4 configurations.
The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.
| Type | Specifications |
|---|---|
| Cielo 1.6 (88 kW) (2008-2015) |
|
| Cielo 1.6 (95 kW) (2008-2015) |
|
| Cielo 1.8 (2008-2015) |
|
| Cielo 2.0 (2008-2015) |

Additional Notes
- The Chery Cielo brake fluid capacity is expressed as "between min and max" rather than a fixed volume, meaning the reservoir level must fall within the marked range on the translucent reservoir body rather than being filled to a precise measured quantity.
- A shared service interval of 50,000 km or 24 months applies under normal use conditions across all four Cielo configurations spanning the 1.6 (88 kW), 1.6 (95 kW), 1.8, and 2.0 engine variants.
- The 24-month time limit means a brake fluid change is due at whichever threshold arrives first, whether the vehicle has reached 50,000 km or two years have elapsed since the last service.
- Brake fluid absorbs moisture over time, which lowers its boiling point, so the dual km/time interval reflects the fluid's degradation by age as much as by mileage accumulation.
- The specifications cover the hydraulic brake and clutch system together as a single shared circuit, meaning one fluid reservoir and one service event addresses both systems simultaneously across all listed Cielo variants.
- No variation in service interval or fill specification exists between the two 1.6-litre outputs of 88 kW and 95 kW, indicating the differing power outputs do not affect brake fluid service requirements in the 2008-2015 period.
- The identical interval across the 1.6, 1.8, and 2.0 engine displacements suggests the brake and clutch hydraulic system design is consistent regardless of engine size within the Cielo range.
