Kia Quoris, KH (EU)

Differential fluid capacity & service interval

Kia Quoris, KH (EU) differential fluid capacity is 1,4 liters. Service intervals include checking every 48 months or 60000 km and changing at 120000 km. The data covers 6 configurations.

The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

Additional Notes

  • The Kia Quoris KH (EU) rear differential holds 1.4 liters of fluid across all three engine variants — the 3.8 GDI, 3.8 MPI, and 5.0 V8 — indicating a consistent differential housing size regardless of engine displacement or configuration.
  • Under normal use conditions, the rear differential on the 3.8 GDI and 5.0 V8 variants carries a check interval of 48 months or 60,000 km, with no fluid change interval specified for normal use.
  • The 3.8 MPI, available from 2013-2018, shares the same normal-use check interval of 48 months or 60,000 km as the later GDI and V8 variants, despite entering the lineup a year earlier.
  • Under severe use conditions, all three engine variants specify a rear differential fluid check at 60,000 km or 48 months, paired with a fluid change interval at 120,000 km — a change requirement absent from the normal-use rows.
  • The 120,000 km change interval under severe conditions applies uniformly to the 3.8 GDI, 3.8 MPI, and 5.0 V8, meaning the rear differential fluid change schedule is not differentiated by engine type or displacement.
  • The 1.4-liter rear differential capacity represents a service fill volume, reflecting the amount of fluid required when servicing the unit during routine maintenance rather than a full overhaul or assembly fill.
