Hi Samantha, replacing the oil filter on a Kia Sorento is actually quite simple. First, locate the oil filter, which is usually located near the front of the engine. Then, use an oil filter wrench to loosen and remove the old filter. Make sure to have a drain pan underneath to catch any oil that may spill. Once the old filter is removed, clean the area where the filter attaches to the engine. Then, apply a small amount of new oil to the rubber seal on the new filter and screw it into place. Finally, refill the engine with the recommended amount of new oil. I hope this helps!

Hey Samantha, changing the oil filter on a Kia Sorento is not something you want to rush through. First, make sure your engine is cool and parked on a level surface. Then, you'll want to drain the old oil by removing the drain plug and letting it empty into a container. Once the oil is drained, remove the old filter using an oil filter wrench. Before installing the new filter, double check the rubber seal and make sure it's properly installed. Then, screw in the new filter and refill the engine with new oil. Finally, start the car and check for any leaks. I hope this helps!

Hi Samantha, changing the oil filter on a Kia Sorento is an important maintenance task that should not be overlooked. My advice would be to first refer to your vehicle's owner's manual for specific instructions. But in general, you'll want to make sure you have the correct filter size, drain the old oil, remove the old filter, and clean the area where the filter attaches. Then, apply a small amount of new oil to the rubber seal on the new filter and install it. Finally, refill with new oil and check for any leaks. I hope this helps!
