Additional Notes
- The Ferrari 575M Maranello uses a shared hydraulic system for both the brake and clutch circuits, meaning the 1.3-liter capacity figure covers fluid volume across the combined system rather than the brake circuit alone.
- A 1.3-liter total capacity is relatively substantial for a brake and clutch hydraulic system, reflecting the demands of a high-performance grand touring platform with a manual or electrohydraulic gearbox arrangement.
- The inspection interval is set at 20,000 km, which represents the mileage threshold at which fluid level and condition in the hydraulic system are to be assessed under normal use conditions.
- The change interval of 12 months is time-based rather than mileage-based, meaning a full fluid replacement is due annually regardless of distance covered during that period under normal use conditions.
- A 12-month change interval for brake fluid is consistent with the hygroscopic nature of glycol-based brake fluids, which absorb moisture from the atmosphere over time and lose boiling point performance as a result.
- The combination of a 20,000 km check interval alongside a 12-month change interval means the fluid may be inspected at the mileage threshold before the annual replacement is due, depending on driving frequency.
