Additional Notes
- The Lancia Autobianchi A112 hydraulic brake system holds 0.3 liter across all three trim configurations covered in the 1983-1986 specifications, namely the Abarth, Elite/LX, and Junior.
- A capacity of 0.3 liter is a relatively small reservoir volume, consistent with a compact city car brake circuit where the master cylinder reservoir serves only the hydraulic actuation system rather than a combined hydraulic and clutch arrangement.
- The brake fluid change interval is set at 40,000 km or 48 months, whichever comes first, under normal use conditions for all three trims in the 1983-1986 range.
- The 48-month time limit on brake fluid replacement reflects the hygroscopic nature of brake fluid, which absorbs moisture over time and lowers its boiling point regardless of mileage accumulated.
- The A112 Abarth, despite being the performance-oriented trim, shares the identical 0.3 liter capacity and 40,000 km/48-month change interval with the Elite, LX, and Junior variants, indicating no differentiation in brake fluid service requirements across the lineup for 1983-1986.
