Kia recommends having your 2006 Kia Sportage’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. No matter the mileage, your Sportage may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, or notice excess vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Kia recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, go off-roading a lot, or go long distances at low speeds. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Kia Sportage. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.
Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right 2006 Kia Sportage motor oil: either synthetic or conventional. Kia has specifically identified either synthetic or conventional as the best oil for 2006 Kia Sportage vehicles. This oil helps lubricate engine parts, maintain proper engine temperature, and prevent harmful substances from accumulating in the engine.

You can drive with confidence knowing that we look out for you and your Sportage by taking into account your driving style, local climate,
