Additional Notes

  • The Maserati Kyalami AM 129 4200 carries a brake fluid capacity of 0.5 liter, which is consistent with a service fill volume for a hydraulic brake system reservoir rather than a full system overhaul quantity.
  • The 0.5 liter figure applies specifically to the hydraulic brake system, meaning the measurement reflects the fluid held within the master cylinder reservoir and associated circuit rather than a component replacement procedure.
  • Under normal use conditions, the specified change interval is 25,000 km or 36 months, whichever comes first, meaning the interval is governed by both distance and time, with the time limit of 36 months often becoming the controlling factor for lower-mileage vehicles.
  • The 36-month time-based threshold reflects a known characteristic of brake fluid, which is hygroscopic and absorbs moisture over time regardless of mileage, causing a gradual reduction in boiling point across the service period.
  • The single capacity and interval specification applies uniformly across the 1976-1983 production span of the Kyalami 4200, with no variation recorded between model years within that range.
