Kia oil change
Current Kia petrol engines use 5W-30 or 0W-20 fully synthetic meeting API SN Plus or ACEA A5/B5. The 1.6 CRDi and 2.0 CRDi diesels require ACEA C3 rated 5W-30. EV6 and Niro EV need only 12V battery and brake fluid attention at annual service.
Kia brakes
Kia Stinger GT and EV6 GT use performance-specification Brembo front brakes. All Kia models with electric park brakes require EPB retraction tooling for rear disc replacement — we handle this as standard.
Common Kia issues we fix
- Gamma II 1.6 GDI/T-GDI engine oil sludge (recall on some models)
- DPF and EGR fouling on CRDi diesel engines
- DCT 7-speed clutch pack wear
- Rear EPB caliper seizure on first generation Sportage
