Additional Notes
- The Nissan Note E12 (EU) cooling system spans three engine variants across the 2013-2017 range, each carrying a distinct capacity figure that reflects differences in engine displacement and drivetrain configuration.
- The 1.2 petrol engine holds 5.7 liters of coolant, representing a relatively modest fill volume consistent with a small-displacement naturally aspirated engine.
- The 1.2 DIG-S variant lists two capacity values: 5.8 liters as the standard fill and 6.3 liters when the CVT transaxle cooling circuit is included, meaning the additional 0.5 liters accounts for coolant routed through the continuously variable transmission.
- The 1.5 dCi DPF diesel engine carries the largest cooling system capacity among the three variants at 6.2 liters, a figure that reflects the thermal demands typically associated with diesel combustion and the presence of a diesel particulate filter.
- For the 1.2 and 1.2 DIG-S petrol engines under normal use conditions, the coolant change interval is set at 60,000 km or 36 months, whichever comes first.
- Under the initial service condition, the 1.2 and 1.2 DIG-S engines extend the coolant change interval significantly to 100,000 km or 60 months, indicating that the factory-fill coolant is formulated to last longer before the first replacement.
- The 1.5 dCi DPF diesel follows a different interval structure under normal use, with a coolant change scheduled at 60,000 km or 48 months, the 48-month time limit being longer than the 36-month figure applied to the petrol variants at the same kilometre threshold.
- The diesel engine's first change only condition pushes the initial coolant replacement out to 90,000 km or 60 months, a longer kilometre interval than the petrol initial service equivalent of 100,000 km but with the same 60-month time cap.
- Coolant check intervals differ between the petrol and diesel engines: the 1.2 and 1.2 DIG-S specify a check every 20,000 km or 12 months, while the 1.5 dCi DPF specifies a check every 30,000 km or 12 months.
