Checking the engine clutch actuator fluid level
In normal driving conditions, the actuator fluid level does not go down rapidly. However, oil consumption rate may rise as vehicle mileage increases, and leakage in actuator related parts may result in increased consumption of the engine clutch actuator oil. Regularly check and make sure the engine clutch actuator oil fluid level is between MIN and MAX marks.
If the oil level is below MIN mark, have the vehicle checked by a professional workshop.
Kia recommends to visit an authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
If the fluid level is excessively low, have the system checked by a professional workshop. Kia recommends to visit an authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
Use only the specified engine clutch actuator fluid.
(Refer to More Details.)
Never mix different types of fluid.
Loss of engine clutch actuator fluid
