Gilera DNA

Coolant capacity & service interval

Gilera DNA uses coolant with a capacity of 0,9 liter. Service intervals include checks at 5000 km or 12 months and 6000 km or 12 months, with changes at 1000 km or 4 months and 24 months. The data covers 4 configurations.

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

Additional Notes

  • The Gilera DNA 125 and DNA 180 share an identical coolant capacity of 0.9 liter, which represents the total cooling system fill volume for both variants.
  • On the DNA 125 (2001-2003) and DNA 180 (2001-2004), the coolant check interval is set at 6000 km or 12 months under normal use conditions, whichever comes first.
  • The coolant change interval for the DNA 125 and DNA 180 is 24 months, meaning the fluid is replaced on a time-based schedule rather than a mileage-based one.
  • The DNA RST (2008-2009) does not carry a stated numeric capacity figure. Instead, the specification references a fill level between the minimum and maximum marks on the reservoir.
  • Under normal use, the DNA RST carries a check interval of 5000 km or 12 months, which is 1000 km shorter than the check interval specified for the earlier DNA 125 and DNA 180 models.
  • The DNA RST also carries an initial service entry, which calls for a coolant change at 1000 km or 4 months. A first-change interval of this kind is typically associated with flushing the factory-filled fluid after initial break-in of the cooling system components.
  • Following the initial service, the DNA RST returns to the standard 24-month change interval, consistent with the schedule applied to the DNA 125 and DNA 180.
