  1. 2021+ Sorento Forum
    So I just did my oil change today. Part number 26350-2S000 was replaced by 26350-2S001 ... They changed the design of the drain plug for the filter housing. Instead of being recessed in the hex head of the filter housing, it is now protruding with a circular flange, wider than the hex head of...

    I have a LX Premium, 2.5L naturally aspirated. Did my second oil change on it today, at very exactly 12036km. First one was done at the 6000km mark. When I looked at the bottom of the oil filter cup, there was metal particles glistening in the residual oil, and I saw one metal flake (not quite...
  3. Kia Soul Forum
    Hey all, My question is how frequently should one change the oil when the car is driven fewer than 2,000 MILES PER YEAR. My 2014 Soul has <11K miles; I bought it new late in 2014 and my routine has been to change the oil ANNUALLY by the dealership that sold me the car. I do realize my frequency...
  4. Kia Soul Forum
    Hi all, A year ago I bought a certified pre-owned 2016 Kia soul with 22k miles and a perfect maintenance history. Long story short, I've driven it 18k miles since then without an oil change. (please be nice -- I've been very sick, using it to get to dr's appts, and never got around to it)...
  5. Kia Carnival & Sedona 2015+
    I've got a 2019 Kia Sedona. The manual (and all the marketing when I bought the van) says to change the oil every 7500 miles. When I took it for its first oil change a month ago, the dealership said I need to do it every 5000. So, what's the deal? Which guideline should I actually follow...

    Taking Ownership of a 2019 sorento lx awd V6 this week. On my previous 2016 sorento there was a full size shield underneath, so doing a diy oil change was out of the question. Does anyone know if kia has created an access panel and an oil filter topside on the engine?
  7. 2016 - 2020 Sorento Forum
    Hello everyone Ever since Covid most of my trips have been under 5 miles, which as per he user manual is classified as "Severe Driving Condition". That being said, I decided to take advantage of my day off by pulling the Sorento into the garage and performed the full recommended service as...

    I made a video on how I changed my oil drain bolt to a 1/4 turn valve. I did it on my 2018 Sportage but it could be used on any model. It is from a company called Fumoto and they liked the video so they offered a 10% promo code that you can find in the description. I am not getting any...
  10. Kia Carnival & Sedona 2006+
    FYI to all 2008 Sedona users. Had oil changed at a lube shop. Had a oil pressure warning lamp at idle after that. Long story short....they forgot to put the cage/tube insert back inside the filter. So, watch out for that one. They wanted me to go to a repair shop to fix it etc. I figured out by...
