Hyundai ATF Specifications

Using the correct transmission fluid is essential for keeping your Hyundai’s gearbox running smoothly and efficiently. Modern Hyundai automatics are highly sensitive to the type of ATF used - the wrong fluid can cause hard shifts, slipping, or premature wear.

Hyundai don't have a specific range of gearbox oil specifications; they follow what their transmission builders recommend. Because of this they have a large number of specs (found in your owners manuals), and their fleet often have different oils from one model to the next. However, there are a few common ones:

What Fluid Does My Hyundai Need?

Most Hyundai models built from around 2010 onwards use SP-IV or SP-IV-M specification fluid, though older models may call for SP-III or earlier specs. You’ll find the exact requirement in your owner’s manual, or by checking your gearbox label or dealer data.

Some examples include:

  • i10 / i20 / i30 (Petrol & Diesel Automatics) – typically SP-IV
  • Tucson / Santa Fe (6-speed & 8-speed autos) – SP-IV-M or SP-IV-RR
  • Kona Hybrid / Ioniq / EV models – specific low-viscosity ATF types designed for hybrid drive units
  • Older models (pre-2006) – may use SP-II or even Dexron-type fluids

Why the Right Fluid Matters

Hyundai ATF is far more than just a lubricant - it controls hydraulic pressure, clutch friction, and torque converter performance. Fluids from reputable brands like Fuchs Titan ATF 4400 ATF and TotalEnergies Fluidmatic LV MV ATF are formulated to meet the precise friction, temperature, and anti-foaming requirement of Hyundai automatic transmission.

Using inappropriate / incompatible ATFs can result in:

  • Rough or delayed gear changes
  • Overheating or fluid foaming
  • Slipping or clutch damage
  • Reduced gearbox life

Typical Service Information

Fluid changes are usually recommended between 60,000–100,000 miles depending on driving conditions, though heavy towing or city driving can shorten this interval. Always follow the manufacturer’s refill procedure — many Hyundai transmissions require checking fluid level at a specific temperature to ensure accuracy.

When performing a full change, expect capacities between 6 to 8 litres, depending on model and transmission type. Always check the correct capacity before refilling - some transmissions only allow partial drain and refill unless fully flushed. If in doubt, get in touch and we can check for you.

Choosing the Best Hyundai ATF

When buying Hyundai automatic transmission fluid, always look for the exact specification listed in your handbook (e.g., SP-IV, SP-IV-M, or SP-IV-RR). The wrong fluid can cause costly gearbox issues. Opie Oils stocks a wide range of Hyundai ATF-compatible oils from trusted brands including Motul, Fuchs, Millers Oils, and Mobil, all meeting or exceeding Hyundai’s OE specifications.
