Additional Notes

  • The VDL (Bova/Berkhof) Lexio carries a coolant capacity range of 100-140 liters across the configurations listed for 2005-2006. A range of this width, rather than a fixed value, typically reflects variation in the actual system volume depending on installed components, plumbing runs, or auxiliary heating circuits common in coach applications.
  • Both the PE 228 C and PE 265 C engine variants share the same 100-140 liter capacity specification, meaning the difference in engine output between the two does not produce a divergence in cooling system volume for the 2005-2006 model years covered.
  • The change interval for both configurations is set at 48 months under normal use conditions. A 48-month coolant service interval is consistent with extended-life coolant formulations, which maintain corrosion inhibitor effectiveness over multi-year periods before requiring a full drain and refill.
  • The normal use condition tied to the 48-month interval applies uniformly to both the PE 228 C and PE 265 C, with no separate severe-duty interval listed for either engine variant in the 2005-2006 period.
