Should I check my Kia Rio motor oil level?

How hard is it to change Kia Rio oil at home?

When to Change 2015 Kia Rio Engine Oil

Looking for oil change recommendations for your 2015 Kia Rio? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care! We are experts in car care — not just tires. We know all about motor oil, too. After all, like our maintenance technician Brianna says, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Kia recommends having your 2015 Kia Rio’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. Your Rio may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Kia recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, adventure off-road, or drive at low speeds for long distances. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Kia Rio. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.
