Why Are Oil Changes Important?
As fresh oil circulates through your engine, it keeps internal components free of excessive heat and friction while trapping particulates that can cause damage. As the engine oil pumps through the engine it cycles through the oil filter, where metal flakes and dirt are deposited, before circulating again to repeat the process. Over time, the filter becomes filled with particulates and needs to be changed along with the oil to ensure your vehicle can retain its performance, efficiency, and reliability. When you don't change your oil at recommended intervals, you risk having a clogged oil filter or internal engine component fail. This can lead to expensive repairs that fall outside warranty coverage.
Synthetic vs. Conventional
Kia of Round Rock is proud to provide vehicle owners with two options regarding the type of oil they put in their vehicles. While synthetic oil may cost more than conventional oil, it offers superior protection due to the additives. Modern refinement process can allow synthetic oils to increase lubricity and longevity. Many new Kia models require synthetic oil due to tight manufacturing tolerances. This helps keep your vehicle operating within specification. Conventional oil, however, can be used on shorter mileage intervals. Check with our certified technicians to ensure you're using the correct oil to keep your Kia well maintained.
Common Oil Change Intervals
Have you heard that your vehicle needs to receive an oil change every 3,000 to 5,000 miles, no matter what? While this may be true for older vehicles or drivers who operate in harsh conditions. Newer Kia models can often travel further between service appointments without harm. Many vehicles have a service light that illuminates at a recommended interval of up to 10,000 miles or 12 months.
Please remember that your service requirements may vary based on operating conditions or environmental factors, such as towing, off-roading, and hot weather. It's a good idea to check the oil level monthly to ensure that oil consumption is within manufacturer guidelines. If you have any questions about oil change intervals for your specific Kia model, don't hesitate to contact our knowledgeable service advisors.
