How to extend the lifespan of my Kia Sportage's engine?

I have a Kia Sportage and want to make sure the engine lasts for as long as possible. Is there anything I should do or avoid to extend its lifespan?

Regularly change the engine oil and filter as recommended by the manufacturer. This helps keep the engine clean and lubricated, extending its lifespan.

Avoid driving with a heavy load or towing heavy objects, as this can put extra strain on the engine and lead to premature wear and tear.

Keep an eye on the engine temperature to avoid overheating. If the temperature gauge starts to rise, pull over and let the engine cool down before continuing your journey.

Regularly check and replace worn out or faulty engine components, such as spark plugs and belts, to ensure optimal performance and prevent any potential damage.
