Additional Notes

  • The Kia Mohave / Borrego HM (EU) automatic transaxle fluid capacity varies by engine, ranging from 9.3 liters in the 3.0 CRDi (2009-2011) and 4.6 configurations up to 10.1 liters in the 3.0 CRDi variants from 2012 onward.
  • The 3.0 CRDi engine saw a capacity increase from 9.3 liters to 10.1 liters when the specification was revised for the 2012-2020 model years, indicating a change in the automatic transaxle unit between those production periods.
  • The 3.0 CRDi DPF variant covering 2012-2020 shares the same 10.1-liter automatic transaxle capacity as the non-DPF 3.0 CRDi of the same period, meaning the addition of a diesel particulate filter did not alter the transmission fluid fill requirement.
  • The 3.8-liter petrol engine carries a 10-liter automatic transaxle capacity across its 2009-2019 production span, placing it between the 9.3-liter and 10.1-liter figures seen in the diesel configurations.
  • The 4.6-liter engine shares the 9.3-liter automatic transaxle capacity with the early 3.0 CRDi, despite being a larger displacement petrol unit covering the 2009-2016 period.
  • Across all engine variants, the normal use condition specifies a fluid check at 90,000 km rather than a full fluid change, meaning the interval is an inspection point rather than a mandatory replacement under standard operating conditions.
  • Under severe use conditions, the 90,000 km interval across all listed configurations becomes a mandatory fluid change rather than a check, reflecting the greater thermal and mechanical stress placed on the automatic transaxle fluid in demanding operating environments.
  • The 90,000 km service interval is consistent across every engine variant and both use conditions in the specifications, indicating a uniform interval policy for the automatic transaxle regardless of displacement or fuel type.
