Commodore 2.5 S (1977-1982)
  • Use: Normal

Additional Notes

  • The Opel Commodore C carries a coolant capacity of 9.6 to 9.8 liters across the 2.5 E and 2.5 S variants for the 1977-1982 model years.
  • The 0.2-liter spread in the stated capacity range is typical of cooling system fills, where the final volume depends on how completely air pockets are purged during the refill process.
  • Both the 2.5 E and 2.5 S share an identical capacity specification, indicating no meaningful difference in cooling system volume between the two trim levels despite their distinct engine tuning designations.
  • The capacity figures apply under normal use conditions, meaning the 9.6 to 9.8-liter range reflects standard operating requirements rather than a modified or severe-duty scenario.
