Additional Notes

  • The Futura FVD 12.270 cooling system holds 35 liters as a base capacity, rising to 60 liters when the heater circuit is included, reflecting the additional fluid volume routed through the cabin heating system.
  • The 25-liter difference between the base and heater-equipped configurations of the VDL (Bova/Berkhof) Futura FVD 12.270 is notable, as it indicates a substantial heater circuit that nearly doubles the total coolant volume required at service fill.
  • Under normal use conditions, the coolant change interval for the Futura FVD 12.270 is set at 80,000 km, applying to both the base 35-liter and the heater-equipped 60-liter configurations.
