Additional Notes

  • The Kia Pregio (EU) automatic transaxle fluid capacity is 6.3 liters across all three engine variants covered in the 2005-2006 specifications, namely the 2.5 TCi, 2.7 D, and 3.0 D.
  • A 6.3-liter figure for an automatic transaxle represents a service fill volume, which accounts for the fluid retained in the torque converter, valve body, and transmission passages during a standard fluid service rather than a full dry-fill overhaul.
  • Under normal use conditions, the 2.5 TCi, 2.7 D, and 3.0 D specifications call for a fluid check at 20,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first, with no fluid change interval listed for normal use.
  • Under severe use conditions, all three engine variants share the same check interval of 20,000 km or 12 months, with an additional fluid change interval specified at 40,000 km.
  • The presence of a 40,000 km change interval exclusively under severe use conditions, while normal use carries only a check interval, reflects a distinction between routine fluid monitoring and scheduled replacement driven by more demanding operating environments.
  • The identical capacity and interval specifications across the 2.5 TCi, 2.7 D, and 3.0 D engines indicate all three share the same automatic transaxle unit for the 2005-2006 model years covered.
