Congratulations on your new Kia Stonic! It's important to follow the recommended maintenance schedule for your vehicle. The engine oil should be changed every 5,000 to 7,000 miles or every 6 months, whichever comes first. As for the type of oil, consult your owner's manual for the recommended viscosity and brand.

Make sure to also check the other fluid levels, such as coolant and transmission fluid, regularly. It's also a good idea to have your air filter checked and replaced every 12 months. Remember to use high quality products and follow the proper procedures.

In addition to regular maintenance, be mindful of your driving habits. Avoid aggressive driving and excessive idling as these can cause unnecessary wear and tear on your engine. Always warm up your engine before driving.
