Additional Notes

  • The Hyundai Accent HC (USA) manual transaxle fluid capacity differs between engine variants. The 1.6 GDI specifies 1.6–1.7 liters, while the 1.6 MPI specifies a slightly lower range of 1.5–1.6 liters.
  • Capacity figures expressed as ranges rather than fixed values reflect acceptable fill tolerances during a service fill, accounting for minor variation in drain completeness or measurement conditions.
  • Both the 1.6 GDI and 1.6 MPI configurations share the same fluid check interval of 30,000 miles or 48 months, regardless of whether the use condition is normal or severe.
  • Under severe use conditions, both engine variants add a fluid change interval of 75,000 miles on top of the standard check schedule. No change interval is listed for normal use conditions.
  • The 1.6 GDI engine covers model years 2018-2019, while the 1.6 MPI engine spans 2019-2022, with 2019 representing the transition year where both engine types appear in the specifications.
  • The severe use designation for both variants carries an identical change interval of 75,000 miles, applied consistently across the GDI and MPI configurations despite their differing fluid capacities.
