Why does it cost so much to get your oil changed in the 2006 Sadona?

Answer 1

The reason why it costs so much to change the oil in your 2006 Sedona is because 1) It takes 6 quarts of oil to maintain the engine, unlike more conventional V6 engines which only require 4 quarts. and 2) Kia uses an internal oil filter, which is super easy to change if you are doing it yourself (i.e. not messy at all unlike conventional filters). But, the cost for the filter averages $12, rather than $2 or 3 for a conventional filter.
