You and me both. I was almost 100% positive the filter at least was up top. I took off the top cover and great no filter. After doing it once though it should be a piece of cake now.WTF?!? I don't think there is any way Kia could have made that process harder.
Thank You i'm trying to do a lot on this car as i plan on keeping it for a very long time. I feel more comfortable doing the work myself as i'm some what mechanically inclined. So i thought hell might as well film it and show other people what to expect.Great informative video! Thanks for the post!
Thank You.Cool, keep the DIY videos coming.
Great video. Can you link me to the exact oil you used?Thank You i'm trying to do a lot on this car as i plan on keeping it for a very long time.

The instructions I gave you was the instructions to all KIA dealerships. He would have the exact same instructions. . The service manager printed those out for me.I gotta talk to kia if they warmed oil before they topped off. Got first change at 650 miles.
They guy seemed to know about the stinger and said he was trained to change oil and filter.
Great vid. Thanks for putting together.

No just torque everything to the proper specs and it will be good. Amd wipe up all the residual oil off the frame work as well.seems like a simple fix is oil guide/plastic cup to guide the oil down, hopefully the deals as done a few of these and got tired to cleaning sh up .another thing to ask, didn't notice any oil drops after the change so good sign.
The manual says 6000 miles for me but in all my cars I've done the first oil change at 1000 then the second after 5000 then I'm back on target for every 6000. Because I'm doing it myself I may change it every 3000 miles.How many miles / km should the first oil change be done?
Great video and thank you for creating it! One more how to video and I think I'll setup a separate section so this stuff is easy to find.Sal if you want to move this to another location be my guest.
Awesome. The E badge install coming next. I got it from you a couple weeks back but haven't had time to get it done yet.Great video and thank you for creating it! One more how to video and I think I'll setup a separate section so this stuff is easy to find.![]()
