Ferrari Dino
Brake fluid capacity & service interval
Ferrari Dino uses brake fluid with a capacity range of 0,28 to 0,3 liters. Service intervals include checking at 5000 km, changing at 10000 km, or changing every 6 months. The data covers 2 configurations.
The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

Additional Notes
- The Ferrari Dino 206GT carries a front brake fluid capacity of 0.3 liter and a rear capacity of 0.28 liter, placing the total system volume well under one liter across both circuits.
- The separation of front and rear capacities into distinct values reflects a dual-circuit hydraulic brake system, where each circuit holds fluid independently rather than sharing a single reservoir volume.
- On the 206GT, the brake fluid change interval is expressed as a distance of 10,000 km under normal use conditions, tying the replacement schedule directly to vehicle mileage accumulation.
- The 246GT shares the same front and rear fluid capacities as the 206GT, at 0.3 liter and 0.28 liter respectively, despite being a distinct model variant introduced in 1969.
- On the 246GT, the change interval shifts from a distance-based figure to a time-based interval of 6 months under normal use conditions, a notable departure from the mileage-driven schedule applied to the 206GT.
- A 6-month change interval on the 246GT reflects the hygroscopic nature of conventional brake fluid, which absorbs moisture over time regardless of distance driven, making calendar-based replacement relevant even at low mileage.
- Both the 206GT and 246GT share a check interval of 5,000 km, indicating that fluid level inspection was specified at half the distance of the 206GT's full change interval.
