The ultimate choice for any car would be a fully synthetic, Grade 30 or less and a "XW" less than 20W.But a synthetic blend with SJ or SL rating will also do the job rather nicely.
What engine oil is recommended for kia Rio 2007
The oil capacity of the 2003 Kia Rio engine is 3.6 Quarts.
A 2000 Kia Rio uses standard 5w-20 grade engine oil. This light weight oil allows the engine to operate efficiently and with minimal resistance.
The oil stick on a 2001 Kia Rio is located on the top of the engine. The oil stick allows a person the ability to check the oil levels on their vehicle.

The type of oil that is needed for the Kia Rio will vary depending on the size of the engine and the engine code. The two most common types are the Synthetic 5w30 and the Semi Synthetic 10w40.
Use the exact weight as recommended in your owners manual by Kia. Any major brand is fine.
3.1 litres to maxium level, expert engineer
If its the same as a 2000 model it is at the back of the engine, you can reach it from above.
It's on the starter, the starter is behind the engine above and to the left of your oil filter.
a kia Rio 04 takes approx 3.3 litres if you are changing oil and filter.
