Grecav Sonique
Brake fluid capacity & service interval
Grecav Sonique uses brake fluid with a capacity of 0,3 liter. Service intervals include 50000 km/36 months and 12 months. The data covers 2 configurations.
The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

Additional Notes
- The Grecav Sonique 505 carries a brake fluid reservoir capacity of 0.3 liter, which represents the hydraulic brake system fill volume rather than a full overhaul quantity.
- The Sonique 440 DCi does not list a fixed reservoir volume. Instead, the specification references a fill level between the minimum and maximum marks on the reservoir, indicating a top-up approach to servicing rather than a measured capacity fill.
- A notable difference exists between the two configurations in terms of service intervals. The Sonique 440 DCi follows a change interval of 50,000 km or 36 months under normal use conditions, while the Sonique 505 specifies a change interval of 12 months under the same normal use condition, with no mileage threshold stated.
- The 12-month interval on the Sonique 505 reflects a time-based service cycle, which is common for brake fluid due to moisture absorption over time rather than mechanical wear alone.
- Both configurations are designated for normal use conditions, meaning neither row carries a severe-duty or first-change-only interval distinction.
- The 36-month interval on the Sonique 440 DCi is three times longer than the 12-month interval on the Sonique 505, representing a significant divergence in service frequency between the two engine variants across the 2009-2012 model years.
