Additional Notes

  • Across all three engine variants of the Hyundai Veloster FS (EU) — the 1.6 GDI (103 kW), 1.6 MPI (95 kW), and 1.6 T-GDI (137 kW) — the cooling system capacity is consistently 5.2 liters when paired with an automatic transmission, and 5.0 liters when paired with a manual transmission.
  • The 0.2-liter difference between automatic and manual transmission configurations reflects the additional coolant volume routed through an automatic transmission oil cooler, which is integrated into the cooling circuit on automatic-equipped vehicles.
  • The 1.6 GDI (103 kW) and 1.6 T-GDI (137 kW) variants also list a 5.0-liter capacity for DCT (dual-clutch transmission) fitments, matching the manual transmission figure rather than the automatic one.
  • For the 1.6 MPI (95 kW) in both 2011-2014 and 2015-2017, no DCT capacity figure is listed, as the specifications for that variant do not include a DCT pairing.
  • The 1.6 T-GDI (137 kW) in the 2011-2014 period also does not carry a DCT capacity entry, whereas the 2015-2017 version of the same engine does include a 5.0-liter DCT figure.
  • Under normal use conditions, the coolant change interval for all listed variants is 30,000 km or 24 months, whichever comes first. This relatively short interval is typical of a standard maintenance schedule designed for mixed driving conditions.
  • The first change only condition introduces a two-stage service structure: a coolant check at 60,000 km or 48 months, followed by a full change at 210,000 km or 120 months. The 120-month (10-year) change interval is characteristic of long-life coolant formulations, which are chemically stable enough to remain in service far longer than conventional coolants.
  • The 210,000 km or 120-month first-change interval applies uniformly across all engine variants and both model year ranges (2011-2014 and 2015-2017), with no variation between the GDI, MPI, or T-GDI engines.
  • The specifications for 2011-2014 and 2015-2017 are identical in both capacity values and service intervals for each respective engine variant, indicating no cooling system changes were introduced between those two production periods.
