Additional Notes

  • Across all listed engine configurations of the Jeep Cherokee KL, transfer case fluid capacity appears in two distinct values: 0.7 liter and 1.2 liter. Both figures are listed simultaneously for each configuration, indicating two separate fluid compartments or fill points within the transfer case assembly rather than alternative fill amounts.
  • The 0.7 liter figure represents the smaller of the two transfer case fluid volumes. In multi-chamber transfer case designs, a value of this size typically corresponds to a chain or gear lubrication cavity separate from the main fluid reservoir.
  • The 1.2 liter figure represents the larger fluid volume within the transfer case. Together with the 0.7 liter value, the combined total reaches 1.9 liters per service event for each listed configuration.
  • All transfer case fluid specifications across the Cherokee KL lineup are designated for normal use conditions. No severe-duty interval or capacity variation is listed for any configuration.
  • The 2.4 MultiAir II AWD configuration spans two overlapping year ranges: 2013-2015 and 2015-2023. Both ranges carry identical 0.7 liter and 1.2 liter capacities, suggesting a consistent transfer case unit across the full production span of that engine variant.
  • The 3.2 V6 appears in two separate configurations: a non-designated AWD entry covering 2013-2015 and an explicitly AWD-labeled entry covering 2015-2022. Both share the same 0.7 liter and 1.2 liter dual-capacity structure.
  • The 2.0 AWD configuration carries two overlapping year ranges as well, 2019-2020 and 2020-2023, each listing the same 0.7 liter and 1.2 liter capacities. The overlap at the 2020 model year reflects a transitional period where both range entries apply.
  • The 2.0 engine variant represents the most recent addition to the Cherokee KL transfer case specifications, with coverage beginning in 2019, while the 2.4 MultiAir II and 3.2 V6 configurations trace back to the 2013 model year introduction of the KL generation.
