Additional Notes
- The Ferrari 512 BB carries a clutch fluid capacity of 0.4 liter across both the carbureted 512 BB (1976-1981) and the fuel-injected 512 BBi (1981-1984) variants, indicating a relatively small hydraulic reservoir consistent with a dedicated clutch actuation circuit rather than a combined brake and clutch system.
- Both the 512 BB and 512 BBi use a hydraulic clutch system, meaning clutch engagement is managed through fluid pressure rather than a mechanical cable, which makes maintaining the correct fluid level directly relevant to pedal feel and actuation reliability.
- The specified service action for both variants is a check at every 10,000 km under normal use conditions, rather than a full fluid replacement interval, reflecting a monitoring-based approach to clutch fluid maintenance at that mileage point.
- The 0.4 liter capacity figure represents a service fill volume, applicable to topping up or servicing the hydraulic clutch reservoir, and is not an overhaul or system-flush quantity associated with a complete circuit drain.
- The 10,000 km check interval applies equally to the 512 BB (1976-1981) and the 512 BBi (1981-1984), with no differentiation in service frequency between the two despite the mechanical distinction introduced with fuel injection on the BBi.
