type and number to use for kia forte
i use pure olive oil
twice a year
every 3 - 4,000 miles
Every 5,000 miles with conventional oil, and every 8,000 with synthetic.
If you are changing it yourself i don't know? but if your having it done at the dealer then they are probably using the wrong oil. I had the dealer change the oil once in my forte only because it was a free oil change but after leaving the dealer my forte just didn't feel right , really sluggish and not as peppy as usual so i went straight home and dumped the oil and oil filter and put my castrol 5w20 back in and all was good.
Oil pump change
The manual states to do it every 3000 miles or 12 months
The user manual recommends changing the oil and oil filter every 5000 miles under normal driving conditions.
carefully
In accordance with the sevicing manual i.e every 10000 miles or 12 months
2000 kia sportage needs 4 1/4 quarts of oil + oil filter.
