Hyundai Terracan, HP (EU)

Automatic transmission fluid capacity & service interval

Hyundai Terracan HP (EU) automatic transmission fluid capacity ranges from 8,2 to 10,46 liters. Service intervals include checks every 30000 km or 24 months and changes every 90000 km or 72 months. The data covers 2 configurations.

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

Additional Notes

  • The Hyundai Terracan HP (EU) automatic transmission fluid capacity differs notably between the two available engine configurations, with the 2.5 TCI holding 8.2 liters and the 2.9 CRDI 16V holding 10.46 liters.
  • A capacity figure of 10.46 liters, as seen in the 2.9 CRDI 16V, is characteristic of a total system fill that accounts for fluid held within the torque converter, valve body, and transmission cooler lines, rather than a simple pan-drain service quantity.
  • Both configurations share an identical check interval of 30,000 km or 24 months, whichever comes first under normal use conditions.
  • The change interval for both engine variants is set at 90,000 km or 72 months under normal use, meaning a full fluid exchange is expected roughly every six years or every three check cycles.
  • The 2.5 TCI engine was available from 2001-2004, while the 2.9 CRDI 16V spans the full 2001-2007 model range, meaning the two configurations overlap during the 2001-2004 period and carry different fluid capacities despite sharing the same service intervals.
  • Both rows are classified under normal use conditions, which in transmission service contexts typically refers to standard on-road driving as opposed to towing, extreme temperatures, or frequent stop-and-go operation.
  • The 2.26-liter difference in ATF capacity between the 2.5 TCI and the 2.9 CRDI 16V reflects the larger transmission unit paired with the higher-displacement diesel engine, a factor relevant when sourcing the correct fluid volume for a full service fill.
