Questions About 2023 Kia Seltos’s Transmission

  • How much can I tow in a Kia Seltos? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small it is.

Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Kia's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.

As your Seltos ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues.
