Hyundai Wheeled excavators, R130W ->

Automatic transmission fluid capacity & service interval

Hyundai R130W wheeled excavators require automatic transmission fluid with a capacity of 3.8 liters. The data covers 2 configurations.

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

TypeSpecifications
  • R200W-3, Cummins 6BT5.9-C (2000-2004)
  • Powershift
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 3,8 liter
  • Code: 2/2
  • R170W-3, Cummins 6BT5.9-C (1997-2004)
  • Powershift
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 3,8 liter
  • Code: 2/2

Additional Notes

  • The R170W-3 and R200W-3 both share a 3.8-liter automatic transmission fluid capacity, which applies to the powershift transmission unit in each machine.
  • A 3.8-liter fill is a relatively modest capacity for a powershift transmission in this equipment class, consistent with a service-fill volume rather than a full overhaul or total system flush quantity.
  • The Hyundai R170W-3 with the Cummins 6BT5.9-C engine carries the 1997-2004 production span, while the R200W-3 with the same engine covers a narrower 2000-2004 range, meaning the two configurations overlap only within those four years.
  • Both configurations list normal use conditions, meaning the 3.8-liter capacity and associated service intervals are not adjusted for severe-duty operating environments in the available specifications.
  • The powershift transmission designation indicates a type of automatic gearbox that shifts under load without interrupting power delivery, which is a common arrangement in wheeled excavators of this era and explains the presence of a dedicated ATF service specification.
