How often should I change the oil in my Kia Rio?

Regular oil changes are an important part of maintaining your Kia Rio's performance and longevity. But how often should you actually be changing the oil? What factors should you consider when determining the appropriate maintenance schedule for your vehicle? Let's take a closer look.

It is generally recommended to change your Kia Rio's oil every 5,000-7,500 miles, or every 6 months, whichever comes first.

If you frequently drive in severe conditions such as stop-and-go traffic, extreme temperatures, or dusty roads, you may need to change your oil more frequently.

Be sure to always refer to your owner's manual for specific oil change recommendations for your Kia Rio model and year.

In addition to regular oil changes, be sure to check your oil levels regularly and top off as needed.
