Additional Notes

  • The brake fluid reservoir for the Volkswagen Jetta 1K2 (USA/CAN) 2.5 (125 kW) holds 1.2 liters, a figure that reflects the total capacity of the hydraulic brake and clutch system combined rather than the brake circuit alone.
  • A 24-month change interval applies to the 2.5 (125 kW) across the 2007-2009 model years under normal use conditions, meaning the interval is time-based rather than mileage-based.
  • The shared hydraulic circuit for both braking and clutch operation in the 2.5 (125 kW) means the 1.2-liter capacity accounts for fluid volume distributed across two functional subsystems within a single reservoir.
