Additional Notes

  • The rear differential fluid capacity for the Hyundai Tucson NX4 1.6 T-GDI Hybrid AWD and 1.6 T-GDI Plug-in Hybrid AWD is specified as a range of 0.53-0.63 liter, reflecting a fill tolerance rather than a fixed volume, which is common in rear differential units where fluid level is confirmed by a fill plug rather than a dipstick.
  • The 2.5 GDI AWD variant carries a fixed rear differential fluid capacity of 0.58 liter, a single value that falls within the range specified for both hybrid configurations.
  • Under normal use conditions, the 1.6 T-GDI Hybrid AWD calls for a rear differential fluid check at 32,000 miles or 48 months, whichever comes first, with no fluid change interval listed for normal use.
  • Under severe use conditions, the 1.6 T-GDI Hybrid AWD rear differential fluid is subject to a change interval of 72,000 miles, replacing the check-only schedule that applies under normal conditions.
  • The 1.6 T-GDI Plug-in Hybrid AWD shares identical rear differential fluid intervals with the standard hybrid variant, with a check at 32,000 miles or 48 months under normal use and a change at 72,000 miles under severe use.
  • For the 2.5 GDI AWD under severe use conditions, the rear differential fluid schedule includes both a check at 32,000 miles or 48 months and a change at 72,000 miles, meaning both inspection and replacement intervals are active simultaneously under severe conditions.
  • Under normal use conditions, the 2.5 GDI AWD rear differential fluid interval mirrors the hybrid configurations, requiring a check at 32,000 miles or 48 months with no separate change interval specified for normal use.
