Aixam - Mega Aixam 300 / 400 / 500

Brake fluid capacity & service interval

Aixam - Mega 300 / 400 / 500 uses brake fluid with a capacity of 0,3 liter. The service interval for the fluid is 12 months. The data covers 4 configurations.

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

Additional Notes

  • All four configurations across the Aixam 300, 400, 400 Evolution, and 500 share an identical brake fluid capacity of 0.3 liter, which is consistent with the compact hydraulic brake systems found in light quadricycles of this class.
  • The 0.3 liter figure represents a service fill capacity, meaning the volume required to maintain or refill the hydraulic brake circuit under normal operating conditions rather than a full system overhaul quantity.
  • A 12-month change interval applies uniformly across all listed configurations under normal use conditions. Annual brake fluid replacement is standard practice for hydraulic systems because brake fluid is hygroscopic, absorbing moisture over time, which lowers its boiling point and can compromise braking performance.
  • The Aixam 300 covers the full 1996-2004 span of the listed range, while the Aixam 400 is specified only for 1996-2000, with the 400 Evolution taking over from 2000-2004, indicating a mid-range model transition within the same generation period.
  • The Aixam 500 entered the lineup for 2002-2004, the shortest production window among the listed variants, yet carries the same 0.3 liter capacity and 12-month interval as the earlier models.
  • The consistent 0.3 liter capacity across all variants, regardless of model designation or year, reflects the shared hydraulic brake architecture used throughout the Aixam 300 / 400 / 500 range during this period.
