Pls, which ATF should I use for kia sportage 2008 model with 4WD. And how many liters should I use?.

I had problem with my gear. It could only be shifted to D but can't move.

I just got the gear repaired by my Mechanic. Plz, I want to know the required liters that will completely fill it up

Recommended ATF is Hyundai/Kia SP-III.
For a completely drained transmission, you'll need about 8quarts.

Apologies for the late reply. Nairaland has not been allowing me reply messages.

Please use the recommended Hyndai/Kia SPI-IV for your vehicle. This is a modified version of the previous SP-III oil.
Thanks

Please is SPI-IV or SP-III the recommended ATF for a 2001 Mitsubishi Montero LTD? Where can I purchase either in Lagos please?

SP-III is the recommended fluid. Please do not use the newer SP-IV as it's lighter and made for post 2010 transmissions

Matic J is not the recommended ATF. It's Matic D, but a good dexron III is permissible. Stick to your Mobil XHP.

For the engine, if your mileage is over 200k, stick to the oil you're already using. However if engine is still new, no issues if you change.
Does your gear change smoothly? Which brand of dexIII are you using?

First things to always check in a gear is the fluid. Your gear was designed to use the newer Toyota WS oil which has lower viscosity. So using the DexIII is a no no. I also hope the DexIII has not caused irreparable faults.

It’s been a year already and the only issue has been the gear 3 whenever the engine gets cold but this was the issue before changing the fluid. It’s not getting worse either. I’m going to do a oil flush and replace with the WS oil to see what the result will be. Thanks

Black smoke? What I recommended was for your gear and not engine. Black smoke is totally not related. Have the car scanned as black smoke means fuel is not being burnt well.

For your automatic transmission, please stick to the recommended Toyota Type IV ATF
While for the engine Toyota recommends SAE 5w30 oil.

If you can't find Honda oem oil, you can use Amsoil thought it is quite pricey.

Honda ATF-Z1 is recommended for your vehicle. However, this has been replaced with Honda DW-1 which is backward compatible.

So, use the Honda DW-1 Atf.
. how about Honda 2000 v6
