2023 Kia Carnival Questions & Answers

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Kia? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Kia? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Carnival’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • How often does my Carnival transmission fluid need to be checked? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2023 Carnival’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Kia, so check with your technician first. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Kia Carnival? Yes. Kia Carnival transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems.
