I just purchased a Kia ProCeed and I want to make sure I am properly maintaining it. Can you give me step by step instructions on how to change the oil?
ReplyFirst, make sure your engine is cool and the car is parked on a level surface. Locate the oil cap and the oil drain plug underneath the car. Use a wrench to loosen the drain plug and place a drain pan underneath to catch the old oil.
Once all the old oil has drained out, replace the drain plug and move on to removing the oil filter. Use a filter wrench to loosen and remove the old filter. Be careful not to spill any oil.
Before installing the new oil filter, coat the rubber gasket with oil and hand tighten it onto the engine. Pour the correct amount of new oil into the engine, as specified in your owner's manual.
