Why is my Kia Soul experiencing engine oil depletion?

I recently noticed that my Kia Soul is consuming a lot more engine oil than usual. It's been causing me some concern and I'm wondering what could be causing this sudden change. Has anyone else experienced this issue?

This could be caused by a few different things, Samantha. It's possible that there is a leak in the engine or that the engine is burning oil at a higher rate than it should. I would recommend taking your Kia Soul to a trusted mechanic for a thorough inspection.

I had the same issue with my Kia Soul and it turned out to be a faulty PCV valve. This can often cause excessive oil consumption. It's a relatively easy and inexpensive fix, so I would suggest checking this first before looking into more serious engine issues.

It's also important to make sure you are using the correct type of oil for your Kia Soul. Using the wrong viscosity or grade of oil can cause it to burn more quickly. Check your owner's manual or consult with a Kia dealership to make sure you are using the right oil.
