Cabstar 3.0 TDi (2002-2006)
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 1,25 liter
  • Check 20000 km
  • Change 40000 km/ 24 months

Additional Notes

  • Both the Cabstar 2.7 TD and the Cabstar 3.0 TDi share a brake fluid capacity of 1.25 liters, which reflects the total volume of the hydraulic brake/clutch system rather than a partial top-up quantity.
  • The 1.25-liter figure applies to the combined hydraulic circuit, meaning brake and clutch operation draw from the same fluid reservoir in both engine configurations across the 2002-2006 model years.
  • Under normal use conditions, a fluid level check is specified at every 20,000 km for both the 2.7 TD and 3.0 TDi variants.
  • The change interval under normal use conditions is set at 40,000 km or 24 months, whichever comes first, and applies equally across both engine variants.
  • The time-based element of the change interval, 24 months, reflects the hygroscopic nature of brake fluid, which absorbs moisture from the atmosphere over time and degrades regardless of distance driven.
  • The Nissan NT400 Cabstar F23 specifications show no variation in brake fluid capacity or service intervals between the 2.7 TD and 3.0 TDi engines, despite the difference in displacement and fuel delivery systems.
