How should I properly maintain my Kia Sportage's engine?

I recently bought a Kia Sportage and I want to make sure I am taking the proper steps to maintain its engine. What should I be doing regularly to keep it running smoothly and efficiently?

Regularly check and change the oil according to the recommended schedule. Using high quality oil will also benefit your engine's performance.

Don't forget to also change the oil filter every time you change the oil. This helps keep your engine running clean.

Check your coolant levels and make sure to top off if needed. This helps prevent your engine from overheating.

Regularly check your air filter and replace if needed. A dirty air filter can decrease engine performance.

If you notice any unusual noises or vibrations coming from your engine, don't ignore them. Schedule a maintenance check with a trusted mechanic to catch any potential issues early on.
