Warning Signs My Kia Needs an Oil Change

Engines are made up of many moving parts and clean oil creates proper lubrication for components to run efficiently. Being aware of your Kia’s oil over time may be the difference between having your car for eight months or eight years. Some warning signs that indicate a need for an oil change include:

• Dark or Dirty Oil
• Burnt Oil Smell
• Engine Knocking Noise
• Excessive Mileage
• Exhaust Smoke
• Check Engine Light
• Low Oil Levels

How Often Should I Receive an Oil Change?

Traditionally speaking, you should schedule an oil change appointment with our service center every 6,000 to 7,000 miles. Various driving habits and driving frequencies that may affect the timeline of scheduling an oil change include:

• Repeated short-distance trips
• Driving in dusty conditions
• Driving in areas where salt or other corrosive materials are being used
• Extensive use of brakes
• Driving on rough or muddy roads
• Driving in mountainous areas
• Extended periods of idling or low-speed operation
• Driving in a prolonged period of extreme humidity or cold temperatures
• More than 50% driving in heavy city traffic in above 90-degree weather

If you find yourself in these situations frequently, consider scheduling an oil change every 4,000 to 5,000 miles. We also recommend reviewing your Owner’s manual for specific intervals on schedule oil changes and other routine maintenance services.
