Additional Notes
- The Fiat Regata (EU) Diesel carries a brake fluid capacity of 0.39 liter for the hydraulic brake system, a figure consistent with a service fill rather than a full overhaul of the braking circuit.
- Under normal use conditions, the specified check interval for brake fluid is every 500 km, reflecting how frequently the reservoir level is to be verified rather than the fluid itself replaced.
- The change interval for brake fluid is set at 40,000 km or 24 months, whichever comes first, meaning both a distance threshold and a time-based threshold govern when a full fluid replacement is due.
- The 24-month time limit on brake fluid change is significant because brake fluid is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs moisture from the atmosphere over time, which lowers its boiling point regardless of mileage accumulated.
- The 500 km check interval and the 40,000 km change interval apply specifically to the Regata Diesel variant covering the 1983-1984 model years under normal use conditions.
