2002 Subaru Outback Brake system capacity

[avpman]

Does anyone know what the brake system capacity is for 2002 Subaru
Outback? Any and all info is greatly appreciated.

What do you mean by capacity? Amount of total brake fluid or how much
load the brakes can handle as in trailer capacity/load?

Sorry, I should have clarified that. I mean the fluid capacity. I
need to replace it's brake fluid and I have some good stuff left over
from another job.

Capacity of the system doesn't mean much
since you bleed until the fluid is clear.
So it's an "as needed" item.

The times I've done the Outback Murphy's
law prevailed, with me needing a small can
and a tablespoonful from another one.

I usually start with two small unopened cans of dot 3/4 and end up
with ~ 1/2 can after a complete flushing.
