Additional Notes

  • Across all configurations of the Toyota RAV4 XA40 (2013-2018), the automatic transaxle dry fill capacity is 6.5 liters. A dry fill represents the total fluid volume required when the transmission is completely empty, such as after a full overhaul or replacement.
  • The service fill capacity is 3.2 liters for all listed configurations, both 2WD and 4WD, in both the USA and CAN markets. A service fill reflects only the partial volume exchanged during a routine fluid change, which is consistently about half the dry fill amount.
  • For Canadian-market configurations under normal use conditions, the transaxle fluid check interval is set at 16,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first. No fluid change interval is specified under normal use for the Canadian market.
  • Under severe use conditions in the Canadian market, a fluid change interval of 96,000 km or 72 months is added on top of the 16,000 km or 12-month check interval. The 72-month time limit is equivalent to six years.
  • Canadian-market configurations include a "first check only" entry, which carries a one-time check interval of 32,000 km or 24 months. No equivalent first-check entry appears in the USA-market specifications.
  • USA-market configurations under normal use conditions specify a fluid check at 30,000 miles or 36 months. Compared to the Canadian normal-use interval of 16,000 km (roughly 9,940 miles) or 12 months, the USA interval is notably longer in both distance and time.
  • Under severe use conditions in the USA market, a fluid change is specified at 60,000 miles or 72 months, while the check interval remains at 30,000 miles or 36 months. The 60,000-mile change threshold is substantially lower in distance than the Canadian severe-use equivalent of 96,000 km (approximately 59,650 miles), though both share the same 72-month time limit.
  • The 2WD (ASA42) and 4WD (ASA44) variants share identical fluid capacities and service intervals within each market. The addition of all-wheel-drive hardware in the ASA44 does not alter the automatic transaxle fluid specifications as listed.
