What are the recommended oil change intervals for a Kia Sorento?

I recently bought a Kia Sorento and I'm wondering how often I should change the oil. Is it every 3,000 miles or is it longer like 5,000 miles?

As a general rule, it is recommended to change the oil in your Kia Sorento every 5,000 miles or every 6 months, whichever comes first. However, this can vary depending on your driving habits and the type of oil you use.

If you do a lot of stop-and-go city driving or if you frequently tow heavy loads, you may want to change your oil more frequently, every 3,000 miles. On the other hand, if you mostly do highway driving, you may be able to go up to 7,500 miles before needing an oil change.

Ultimately, it's best to consult your owner's manual for specific recommendations for your vehicle. It's important to follow the manufacturer's guidelines to ensure proper maintenance and prolong the life of your engine.
