Opel Ampera-e, F17

Coolant capacity & service interval

Opel Ampera-e and F17 models require coolant with a capacity range of 3,8 to 7 liters. Service intervals occur every 240000 km or 60 months. The data covers 2 configurations.

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

Additional Notes

  • The Opel Ampera-e (F17) has two separate coolant circuits, each with its own capacity and service interval specification.
  • The high voltage battery cooling system carries a capacity of 7 liters, which reflects the thermal management demands of a large traction battery pack.
  • The power electronics cooling system holds 3.8 liters, a notably smaller volume consistent with the more compact thermal load of inverters and related drive components.
  • Both circuits share an identical service interval of 240,000 km or 60 months under normal use conditions, indicating a unified maintenance schedule across the two systems despite their differing capacities.
  • The 60-month time limit on both intervals means calendar age can trigger a coolant change before the distance threshold is reached, regardless of actual mileage accumulated.
  • The combined coolant volume across both circuits totals 10.8 liters, a figure relevant when planning a full-vehicle coolant service rather than addressing a single circuit in isolation.
