Additional Notes

  • The SsangYong Korando automatic transmission fluid capacity is 9 liters across all listed engine variants, spanning the 2.3 16V, 2.3 D, 2.9 D, 2.9 TD, and 3.2 24V configurations for the 1998-2007 model range. A 9-liter figure at this level typically reflects a total system fill, accounting for fluid held within the torque converter and valve body in addition to the transmission sump.
  • The petrol-engined variants, the 2.3 16V and 3.2 24V, share a check interval of 15,000 km or 12 months under normal use conditions. The diesel variants, covering the 2.3 D, 2.9 D, 2.9 TD (88 kW), and 2.9 TD (95 kW), carry a more frequent check interval of 10,000 km or 6 months under the same normal use condition.
  • The shorter check interval assigned to diesel variants reflects the generally higher thermal and mechanical stress that diesel powertrains can place on transmission fluid, which can accelerate fluid degradation and make more frequent monitoring appropriate.
  • Among the petrol variants, the 2.3 16V and 3.2 24V each have two specification rows. One row covers the check interval alone, while a second row adds a fluid change interval of 45,000 km. The 45,000 km change interval applies under normal use conditions alongside the standard 15,000 km or 12-month check schedule.
  • The two turbodiesel variants, the 2.9 TD at 88 kW and the 2.9 TD at 95 kW, share identical automatic transmission fluid specifications despite differing in output. Both carry the 9-liter capacity and the 10,000 km or 6-month check interval under normal conditions.
  • No fluid change interval is listed for the diesel variants in the provided specifications. The check interval entries for the 2.3 D, 2.9 D, and both 2.9 TD outputs each contain only a capacity and a check schedule, without a corresponding change mileage figure.
