Renault Estafette (EU)

Coolant capacity & service interval

The Renault Estafette (EU) uses coolant with a capacity ranging from 4.6 to 5 liters. The data covers 4 configurations.

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

Additional Notes

  • The Renault Estafette (EU) R2130/31, covering 1959-1961, carries a cooling system capacity of 4.6 liters, which is the smallest figure recorded across all listed configurations.
  • From 1961 onward, all remaining Estafette variants — the R2132/33/34/35 and both R2136/37 production periods — share a uniform cooling system capacity of 5 liters.
  • The step from 4.6 liters in the R2130/31 to 5 liters in the R2132/33/34/35 represents the only capacity change across the entire 1959-1980 span covered by these specifications.
  • The R2136/37 variant appears across two distinct production periods, 1969-1972 and 1972-1980, both specifying the same 5-liter cooling system capacity under normal use conditions.
  • All four rows are designated for normal use conditions, meaning none of the listed capacities are associated with severe-duty or first-change-only service distinctions.
  • A cooling system capacity of 5 liters is a relatively modest figure consistent with small-displacement commercial van engines of the era, where the coolant volume reflects the engine's thermal output rather than a high-performance application.
