Honda Fit, GD3 (USA / CAN)

Coolant capacity & service interval

Honda Fit, GD3 (USA / CAN) uses coolant with a capacity range of 4,4 to 5 liters. Service intervals follow a flexible on board maintenance system. The data covers 1 configuration.

The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

TypeSpecifications
Fit 1.5 16V (2007-2008)
  • Use: Flexible (on board maintenance system)
  • Capacity 4,9-5 liter (Dry fill)
  • Capacity 4,4-4,5 liter (Service fill)

Additional Notes

  • The Honda Fit GD3 1.5 16V cooling system carries a dry fill capacity of 4.9–5 liters, a figure that reflects the total volume required when filling a fully drained or newly assembled system where all passages, the heater core, and the reservoir start empty.
  • The service fill capacity of 4.4–4.5 liters is the lower volume used during routine coolant replacement, accounting for residual fluid that remains in the system even after a standard drain procedure.
  • The gap between the dry fill and service fill values, roughly 0.5 liters, represents the fluid retained in components such as the heater core and lower hoses that a gravity drain does not evacuate.
  • The 2007-2008 Fit 1.5 16V cooling system interval is governed by a flexible schedule tied to the on-board maintenance system, meaning the vehicle's computer determines the service point based on operating conditions rather than a fixed mileage or time figure.
