Additional Notes

  • The Kia Cadenza VG 3.3 automatic transaxle holds 7.8 liters of fluid, a figure that represents a service fill capacity rather than a full overhaul or dry fill, which would typically be higher due to fluid retained in the torque converter and valve body.
  • The 7.8-liter capacity applies uniformly across the 2013-2016 model years for the 3.3-liter engine, with no variation recorded between those years.
  • A fluid change interval of 60,000 miles is specified exclusively under severe use conditions, meaning the normal use condition carries no listed change interval and only the capacity value is associated with it.
  • Severe use conditions in automatic transmission service generally refer to operation involving frequent towing, stop-and-go traffic, extreme temperatures, or sustained high-load driving, all of which accelerate fluid degradation and justify a defined change interval like the 60,000-mile figure listed here.
