Kia Mohave / Borrego, HM (EU)

Additional Notes

• Across all engine variants of the Kia Mohave / Borrego HM, the front differential capacity is specified as a range of 1.3–1.4 liters, while the rear differential holds a notably larger 1.7–1.9 liters, reflecting the greater size and load-bearing role typical of a rear axle differential in a body-on-frame SUV.
• The capacity values given as ranges rather than fixed figures account for normal variation during a service fill, where fluid level is confirmed at a check port rather than measured by volume alone.
• Under normal use conditions, both the front and rear differentials across all listed configurations share a 20,000 km check interval paired with a 40,000 km change interval, meaning fluid condition is assessed at the midpoint before a full drain and refill is due.
• Under severe use conditions, the change interval for both differentials is halved to 20,000 km, and no separate check interval is listed, as the change itself serves as the primary service action at that mileage.
• The 3.0 CRDi engine configurations are split into two generational groups, covering 2009-2011 and 2012-2020, yet both groups carry identical front and rear differential capacities and service intervals across normal and severe use conditions.
• The 3.0 CRDi DPF variant, available from 2012-2020, shares the same 1.3–1.4 liter front and 1.7–1.9 liter rear differential capacities as the non-DPF 3.0 CRDi of the same period, with no deviation in service intervals under either use condition.
• The 3.8-liter petrol variant, spanning 2009-2019, carries the same differential capacity figures and service intervals as the diesel configurations, indicating the differential assemblies are not engine-specific in specification.
• The 4.6-liter variant, covered from 2009-2016, also conforms to the same 1.3–1.4 liter front and 1.7–1.9 liter rear differential specifications, with change intervals of 40,000 km under normal use and 20,000 km under severe use.
