Additional Notes

  • Across the Renault Captur J87 cooling system specifications, the universal service interval is 150,000 km or 60 months under normal use conditions, whichever comes first. The dual-format interval means a vehicle driven fewer kilometers will still require a coolant change at the five-year mark.
  • The Captur 1.5 dCi 90 DPF (2013-2018) carries the largest fixed coolant capacity in the lineup at 5 liters, reflecting the thermal demands of a diesel engine with a diesel particulate filter system.
  • The Captur 1.5 dCi 110 DPF (2014-2018) lists a capacity range of 4.5 to 5 liters rather than a single fixed value. A range of this kind typically accounts for variation between a partial drain-and-refill service fill and a more complete system flush, or for minor differences between production variants within the same engine designation.
  • The Captur TCe 90 (2013-2019) shows the widest capacity spread in the group at 4.5 to 5.5 liters, a full one-liter range. Ranges this wide often reflect differences between engine sub-variants, optional equipment such as cabin heaters, or the degree to which the system is drained during service.
  • The Captur TCe 120 (2013-2018) specifies a fixed capacity of 4.5 liters, the lowest defined volume among the petrol engines with a stated figure. Fixed single values generally indicate a well-characterized system with consistent fill requirements across production.
  • The Captur TCe 130 PF and TCe 150 PF, both covering 2018-2019, do not list a numeric coolant capacity. Instead, the specification references filling between the minimum and maximum marks on the reservoir. This approach places the fill determination at the point of service rather than at a predetermined volume, which is common for systems where residual coolant levels vary significantly before a top-up or change.
  • The two PF-badged petrol variants, the TCe 130 PF and TCe 150 PF, share identical service interval specifications and the same non-numeric capacity instruction, suggesting a closely related or shared cooling system architecture between the two outputs.
