Additional Notes

  • The Volvo VT series (USA/CAN) cooling system capacity across the 2005-2007 model years is 43.5 liters for all three configurations: the VT 830, VT 880, and VT Daycab.
  • A 43.5-liter cooling system capacity is consistent with heavy-duty commercial truck applications, where large displacement engines and extended cooling circuits require substantially more coolant volume than passenger vehicles.
  • The VT 830, VT 880, and VT Daycab share an identical 43.5-liter capacity figure, indicating no variation in cooling system volume across configurations within the 2005-2007 range.
  • The specified interval for the cooling system is a check at 24,000 km, applied under normal use conditions across all three configurations.
  • A 24,000 km check interval in a heavy-duty commercial context represents a relatively frequent inspection schedule, reflecting the operational demands placed on cooling systems in truck applications.
  • The normal use condition tied to the 24,000 km check interval applies uniformly to the VT 830, VT 880, and VT Daycab, with no separate severe-use interval listed in the specifications.
