Additional Notes
- The Hyundai Veloster FS (USA) semi-automatic transaxle fluid capacity shifted slightly between model years. The 1.6 GDI in 2012 carried a capacity range of 1.8–1.9 liters, while the same engine from 2013 onward moved to a 1.9–2.0 liter range, a modest but measurable increase.
- The 1.6 T-GDI with an automatic transaxle, available in 2013-2015, carries a notably larger fluid capacity of 7.1 liters compared to the 1.9–2.0 liter range specified for semi-automatic transaxle configurations. The substantially higher figure in the automatic unit reflects a more complex hydraulic circuit requiring a greater total fluid volume to fill the torque converter, valve body, and cooler lines.
- Across all semi-automatic transaxle configurations, the fluid check interval is set at 37,500 miles or 30 months under both normal and severe use conditions. No fluid change interval is listed for normal use in any of the semi-automatic rows, while severe use adds a change interval of 75,000 miles.
- For the 1.6 T-GDI automatic transaxle in 2013-2015, a fluid change interval of 60,000 miles is specified under severe use conditions. No change interval appears in the normal use row for the same configuration, which parallels the pattern seen in the semi-automatic entries.
- The 1.6 T-GDI semi-automatic transaxle specifications are consistent across both the 2013-2015 and 2016-2017 model year groups, with identical capacity ranges of 1.9–2.0 liters and the same check and change intervals in both normal and severe use rows.
- The severe use change interval for the automatic transaxle on the 1.6 T-GDI, at 60,000 miles, is 15,000 miles shorter than the 75,000-mile change interval applied to all semi-automatic transaxle configurations under severe use. This difference indicates a more frequent fluid replacement schedule for the automatic unit when operated under demanding conditions.
