Not sure how or where to get your Kia Rio’s oil changed? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care! Our expertise goes beyond tires. Oil and lube services are also our specialties. We couldn’t put it better than our technician, Brianna. She likes to explain to customers that, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”
Your 2014 Rio’s oil should be changed according to Kia’s recommended oil change intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Rio in the above table. No matter the mileage, your Rio may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or notice excess vehicle exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Kia if you regularly haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, adventure off-road, or drive at low speeds for long distances. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Kia Rio. In fact, more frequent oil changes give our technicians more opportunities to catch and alert you to any issues, like worn brake pads or a weak battery.
Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right 2014 Kia Rio motor oil: either synthetic or conventional. Kia has most likely outlined either synthetic or conventional as the ideal engine oil for your 2014 Rio. This oil helps lubricate engine parts, keep the engine cool, and prevent the build-up of harmful substances within the engine. In an oil change service, an auto technician will change your Rio’s oil, replace and recycle the old oil and filter, check all of your other filters, top-off essential fluids, and visually inspect the rest of the vehicle. You can drive with confidence knowing that we look out for you and your Rio by taking into account your driving style, and the number of miles on your odometer.
Wondering if we carry the right motor oil for your Kia? Your Rio engine deserves the very best, which is why we only stock the best!
