All about engine oil for Kia Sportage 3rd generation

Kia Sportage 3 is a compact SUV car that replaced the second generation Sportage. Years of production of the third generation are 2010-2016. The crossover was developed on the Hyundai ix35 platform, but received an original exterior and interior design. The car was produced in Korea, Slovakia and Russia. In 2014, the car was modernized: new rear lights with LEDs appeared, the front part was also changed, the suspension was improved and the list of additional equipment was expanded. The third generation Sportage was offered in S, SE and SX trim levels. The engine range included 2.0 liter petrol and diesel engines, as well as front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. The engines were combined with a manual or automatic transmission.

When to change engine oil

Automakers develop different maintenance regulations depending on the type of engine, but in most cases the service life of the engine oil is from 10 to 15 thousand km. Such replacement regulations can be considered relevant for the Kia Sportage 3. However, in some cases it is necessary to deviate from the regulations and perform the replacement earlier than the stated deadline.

When is an early oil change necessary?

If operating conditions are far from average and the car engine is experiencing increased loads, then it is recommended to contact a car service well before the scheduled oil change date. Below are situations in which it is better to replace the fluid ahead of time.

• frequent long-distance trips on country roads
• intensive commercial use
• car mileage exceeds 150 thousand km
• the engine is subject to heavy overload due to towing semi-trailers and off-road driving

What is the shelf life of the oil depending on the conditions?

With a mileage of over 150 thousand km, the engine has a certain wear and tear, and this negatively affects the beneficial properties of the oil, which deteriorate and the liquid quickly becomes unusable. It is also possible that the oil level may decrease. Based on this, you should be more careful about the environmental conditions in which the car is located most of the time. Below are the shelf life of the oil depending on the engine load.

• if in city driving the oil shelf life is 600 hours, then on the highway and with the same mileage the oil will become unusable after 250 hours
• for a modern engine, the permissible maximum speed is 130 km/h, which does not in any way affect oil wear. However, if this threshold is exceeded, the lubricant overheats and quickly loses its useful properties. Moreover, the situation can worsen off-road - with frequent trips through sand, snow, mud, steep slopes and potholes. Frequent slipping, of course, also overloads the engine and has a bad effect on the quality of the oil. As a result, it turns out that in such conditions all vehicle systems work to the limit, which leads to a reduction in maintenance schedule and early replacement of lubricant
• The degree of load on the engine also depends on the quality of the combustible mixture. Cheap fuel with a large amount of sulfur is one of the reasons for the oxidation of motor oil and the deterioration of its beneficial properties.

Replacement periods depending on oil type

Choosing original oil

When we understand what kind of oil to fill in the Kia Sportage engine, we proceed to the purchase. In this case, it is necessary to distinguish the original from the fake. Several markers:

• Price is the first indicator that allows you to determine whether it is counterfeit. If they offer motor oil at a discount of ten percent or more, you should be wary. Even large dealers are not profitable to provide such a price, since suppliers do not give such discounts.
• Place of purchase - choose stores with a good reputation. It is better to avoid shopping in markets and online services.
• The canister is the main marker for identifying a fake. Real manufacturers pay a lot of attention to design, quality, holograms, seams, and covers.

We look at the canister

We look carefully at the canister.
To determine if the oil you are purchasing for Kia Sportage is counterfeit, you should inspect the canister, paying attention to:

• The container must have a smooth surface with even seams. In this case, mechanical defects should not be visible. The canisters use high-quality plastic that is not translucent. The exception is the scale for determining displacement.
• The canister lid is secured with a locking ring, which breaks when opened. At the same time, large manufacturers put their logo on it, sometimes with a hologram.
• The label on the lubricant container should have clearly legible letters and bright colors. At the same time, there are no swellings and it is almost impossible to peel it off with your hands.
• Also, when choosing engine oil for the Kia Sportage, you will need to look at the production date. The date of release of the canister is marked on the bottom of the container; the cap should be clear and easy to read. The date of manufacture of the lubricant with an indication of time is applied to the front part. All information should be easy to read, and information about the batch number and expiration date should also be printed on the canister.

Famous oil brands

How do they protect themselves from counterfeits?

Castrol - has an imprinted logo on the top of the lid. The logo is also written on the side surface of the lid, capturing part of the fixing ring. Directly under the lid there is a membrane made of silver foil. All Castrol products feature holograms with individual serial numbers. Using online services, you can verify the authenticity of the oil. At the same time, at the bottom of the canister there is a colored company logo, which is included in the center of a shiny lock.

Shell - if you have chosen oil for the Kia Sportage from this manufacturer, then check the uniqueness of the container number on the official website. The number is printed on a hologram that is glued to the lid.

Mobil - starting in 2022, the buyer can verify the authenticity by scanning the QR code. You can also check the originality by entering the twelve characters of the code indicated on each canister on the company’s website. Also on the container there are three-dimensional graphic elements with convex metal dots.

Selecting oil by type

Mineral

Mineral is the most affordable oil recommended for the first generations of Kia Sportage. It is suitable only for warm and moderately cold climates without sudden temperature changes. This is due to the fact that mineral water has a thick consistency and is therefore prone to freezing at extremely low temperatures.

Moreover, in such conditions, problems with starting the engine, as well as various technical problems, are possible. In addition, mineral fluid contains a minimal set of useful additives and therefore does not lubricate parts well, which is why there is a high probability of overheating and dry friction between mechanisms that are subject to rapid wear. Thus, mineral oil can only be recommended for moderate loads.

Semi-synthetic

Semi-synthetic is a type of mineral oil, despite the presence of a small amount of synthetics. After all, most of the semi-synthetics are ordinary mineral water, which means this oil has similar disadvantages. Of course, semi-synthetic freezes less and provides more efficient starting at sub-zero temperatures, but it still has a fairly liquid consistency with poor resistance to crystallization. Semi-synthetics have more useful properties that have a positive effect on engine life, but at the same time, even the most expensive oil of this type cannot become an alternative to the most affordable synthetics.

Synthetic

Synthetic is the best oil for modern cars, including the latest generations of Kia Sportage. It has high viscosity and fluidity, withstands low temperatures well, is not prone to freezing and provides effective starting in a wide range of above and below-zero temperatures.

Thanks to a wide range of useful additives, this liquid protects parts from overheating, dry friction and premature wear. In addition, it is even possible to reduce fuel consumption and show no signs of foaming. The main disadvantage of synthetics is its high fluidity, which is not suitable for cars with high mileage due to possible leaks in the presence of microcracks. This is precisely why thicker semi-synthetics or mineral water are better suited for older cars.

Choosing oil according to seasonality

Summer oil is a specialized fluid for use only in warm weather. At sub-zero temperatures, there may be problems starting the engine with this oil. This is due to the special consistency of summer liquid, which crystallizes in frosty conditions. Therefore, even if the engine is successfully started with such oil at sub-zero temperatures, the engine is subjected to enormous loads and increased wear. In this regard, there is a high probability of failure of important components of the internal combustion engine, and major repairs may subsequently be required.

Winter oil, on the contrary, is only suitable for use in northern regions with stable low temperatures. It has a fairly liquid consistency and therefore is not at all prone to freezing, and also ensures effective starting in almost any frosty weather. However, in hot summers, winter oil becomes even more liquid, which is unacceptable for the normal functioning of the internal combustion engine. As a result, leaks and technical problems may occur. Moreover, at positive temperatures, winter lubricant is not able to form a strong oil film to protect parts from dry friction and premature wear.

All-season oil is the best option for variable climates. Therefore, this type has proven itself well in Russian conditions. The liquid combines the advantages of winter and summer oil, which are less pronounced. And yet, when purchasing a high-quality all-season vehicle, you can be sure of efficient engine starting in cold weather, as well as proper lubrication of all mechanisms for their flawless operation until the next scheduled oil change. Thus, all-season oil is versatile because it can be used all year round.

thanked you

I won’t comment on this shamelessness, because I can’t think of anything other than retaliatory arrogance and rudeness.

So, unlike your semi-underground ODs, with us you can go to your garage with your consumables, and not to the official dealer, otherwise goodbye to the guarantee. I think you, too, are not such fools as to be responsible for oils and oils taken from someone unknown where. etc., and on occasion they will kick you if a major breakdown occurs.

In what place, I wonder, did simply stating a fact suddenly become rudeness? Think, anyway, something positive, turn on your imagination. do not confirm stupid stereotypes about the speed of thought in the Baltics.

“We” have the same OA as all over the world, the list is on the manufacturer’s website, where does the nonsense about the underground come from?

And no dealer has the right to force the purchase of consumables from them - this is a violation of current consumer protection legislation. Why on earth would you pay twice as much for the same product?!

To fulfill the warranty requirements, it is enough to use materials that have the manufacturer’s approval, and you brought them and gave them to work or immediately bought them from the OD - purple. That is why the quote from Murzilka with the parameters of the liquid is useful for everyone who thinks a little and counts their money, and does not stupidly go to the dealer, embarrassed to use their civil rights.

The guarantee, by the way, is given by the MANUFACTURER, and don’t let OD fool you. nonsense about “removal to guarantee”. there is no such thing in principle, this is not a police account in the children's room

And the manufacturer does not regulate the place of purchase of parts and consumables. If only they were original or with the appropriate approval.

Precisely because they are not fools, they understand perfectly well that if it comes to a conflict, they will have to PROVE that the cause of the breakdown was the use of materials provided by the client. But they have no right not to hire them, because... You didn’t bring tap water, but a packaged product, with all the attributes of the original product, I think you are not the enemy of your machine. You can also ask for a certificate of conformity when purchasing and provide an OA if you are particularly biased.

Selecting oil by viscosity

• Constant operation of the car in winter conditions requires oil with a viscosity of 0W-40 or 5W-30
• Constant operation of the car in summer conditions requires oil with a viscosity of 25W-40 or 25W-50
• car operation in variable climatic conditions (winter, summer and spring) requires all-season oil with a viscosity of 10W-40, 5W-40 or 15W-40

Which oil is better to choose

The above parameters correspond to all modern lubricants that can be recommended for the Kia Sportage depending on the engine type and operating conditions. It is important to keep in mind that oil with energy-saving properties is better suited for Sportage. In addition, motor fluid for Sportage with a gasoline engine must meet various specifications and requirements, namely ACEA A5, ILSAC GF-4, API-SM and higher. In the case of diesel engines (with a particulate filter), when choosing a suitable oil, you must adhere to the ACEA C2 or C3 specifications, as well as ACEA B4.

What kind of oil was poured in from the factory?

The engine of the Kia Sportage, produced from 2010 to 2016, was filled with oil from the factory with the appropriate specifications that are recommended for gasoline and diesel engines. Thus, API-SL oil was relevant for gasoline cars in the first years of production, and API-CI for diesel cars. As for the restyled models presented on the market from 2014 to 2016, in this case, oil with a more modern API-SM approval for gasoline and API-CI-4 for diesel engines was poured from the factory.

Sixth and subsequent maintenance of Sportage

Maintenance schedule

Kia Sportage requires attention to the car every 15,000 miles, but there are procedures that will need to be performed less frequently. For example, an oil change in a manual transmission is carried out at approximately 90,000 kilometers, and for an automatic transmission - at 75,000 km. At the same mark it is worth replacing the antifreeze, checking the condition of the expansion tank and cooling system hoses. Otherwise, every 15,000 km, the procedures specified in the list of actions for maintenance 1 and maintenance 2 must be repeated.

How much oil is in the engine

Gasoline

Diesel

Original oil filter for Kia Sportage 3 – article number 26300-35530

Volume

The required amount of fluid depends on the engine displacement. So, the Kia Sportage 2-liter gasoline engine requires 6.5 liters of fluid. It is possible to introduce this much oil only during a comprehensive replacement, during which the old oil is first drained, then the flushing compound is poured in and passed through the entire transmission. Then the flushing agent is drained, and only after that new engine oil is introduced. This procedure effectively cleans the engine of old oil residues, dirt deposits and metal shavings. Partial replacement does not provide such an option, but there is a way to make partial replacement no less effective than full replacement. So, for this, partial oil changes are carried out 3-4 times every 500 kilometers. Thanks to this, the engine components will be completely cleared of dirt deposits, and after this it will be possible to pour in the full volume of fresh oil. This way, you can save on a comprehensive oil change without visiting an expensive dealership.

A 1.6 petrol engine requires 3.3-3.5 liters of fluid. As for the 1.7 and 2.0 diesel engines, they consume 5.3 and 8.0 liters respectively.

What determines oil consumption?

• on the characteristics of the engine, its condition and operating conditions
• on the condition of the oil filter
• on the quality and characteristics of the engine oil

Allowable oil consumption before and after running in

When running up to 5000 km, oil consumption should not exceed 1 l/1000 km. This consumption is considered acceptable even after replacing the piston rings. It should be noted that the volume of lubricant consumption depends on the design and type of engine - gasoline or diesel. There are generally accepted guidelines for engine oil consumption after break-in. At least, you can count on the following consumption rates over 5-150 thousand km:

• 0.25 l/10,000 km – under normal conditions
• 0.4 l/1000 km – at speed and cargo loads
• 0.5 l/1000 km – in mountainous areas

Oil consumption rate for mileage over 150 thousand km

For car engines with mileage of more than 150 thousand km, the permissible oil consumption is 0.35-0.55 l/1000 km.

Allowable oil consumption

For new gasoline engines - 0.25 liters. Critical volume – 0.5 l

For gasoline engines with mileage – 100 ml. Critical volume – 0.5 l

For diesel engines - 0.3-0.5 l. Critical volume – 2 l

For turbocharged engines - from 80 ml and above, depending on the number of turbines

Why do diesel engines have higher oil consumption?

Despite their high efficiency, diesel engines consume significantly more engine oil compared to gasoline internal combustion engines. The reason lies in high compression and increased load on the nodes due to higher pressure. Over time, diesel engines develop natural waste, which in this case is also important from the point of view of additional protection. The oil consumption rate for diesel engines is higher because part of the lubricant is gradually blown out by the system that removes crankcase gases.

oh, they abandoned 6-liter crankcases))) that’s right.

In what place, I wonder, did simply stating a fact suddenly become rudeness? Think, anyway, something positive, turn on your imagination. do not confirm stupid stereotypes about the speed of thought in the Baltics.

“We” have the same OA as all over the world, the list is on the manufacturer’s website, where does the nonsense about the underground come from?

And no dealer has the right to force the purchase of consumables from them - this is a violation of current consumer protection legislation. Why on earth would you pay twice as much for the same product?!

To fulfill the warranty requirements, it is enough to use materials that have the manufacturer’s approval, and you brought them and gave them to work or immediately bought them from the OD - purple. That is why the quote from Murzilka with the parameters of the liquid is useful for everyone who thinks a little and counts their money, and does not stupidly go to the dealer, embarrassed to use their civil rights.

The guarantee, by the way, is given by the MANUFACTURER, and don’t let OD fool you. nonsense about “removal to guarantee”. there is no such thing in principle, this is not a police account in the children's room

And the manufacturer does not regulate the place of purchase of parts and consumables. If only they were original or with the appropriate approval.

Precisely because they are not fools, they understand perfectly well that if it comes to a conflict, they will have to PROVE that the cause of the breakdown was the use of materials provided by the client. But they have no right not to hire them, because... You didn’t bring tap water, but a packaged product, with all the attributes of the original product, I think you are not the enemy of your machine. You can also ask for a certificate of conformity when purchasing and provide an OA if you are particularly biased.

these are progressive Balts) we still have the Stone Age in our yard)

Causes of oil consumption and what to do about it

1. Plug leakage - usually occurs under load and when the engine is warm. To check this version you need to look under the bottom
2. Filled with counterfeit oil. Special protection against counterfeiting, which is found on the packaging of such branded oils as Shell, Ravenol, Mobil, etc., will help you avoid counterfeits.
3. Filled with oil that does not meet the operating conditions. When choosing a suitable oil, you should always proceed from the following criteria: - viscosity - classification and tolerances - protection against counterfeiting
4. Malfunction of the oil separator - to check this version, you need to disassemble the outlet pipe, which can be very dirty. If there is only a small deposit in the pipe, similar to ash, then everything is fine
5. Coking of cylinder piston rings is what happens primarily due to untimely oil changes. The waste liquid loses all its beneficial properties and causes more harm than good. As a result, the oil scraper rings become clogged, which in the worst case will have to be replaced. At best, wash it with a special agent at a service center (the procedure is called ring decarbonization)
6. Rapid aging of the oil - this phenomenon can occur every time after 2000-3000 km after changing the oil. This is due to the following factors: - the oil contains a lot of fuel, and not of the best quality. You can check this with a dipstick - problems in the fuel system - wear of spark plugs or ignition coils - counterfeit oil has been filled in - oil has been filled in with inappropriate specifications and tolerances

Why is it necessary to reduce the shift interval to 10 thousand km?

Despite the fact that, in accordance with the Kia Sportage manual, it is recommended to change engine oil at intervals of fifteen thousand kilometers, in difficult operating conditions this figure drops to 7.5-10 thousand kilometers. The following factors help reduce the lubricant change period in the Kia Sportage internal combustion engine:

Frequent movements over short distances:

• up to 8 km in summer;
• up to 16 km at sub-zero temperatures.
• Driving at low or high speed and idling continuously.
• Operating the vehicle on uneven road surfaces.
• Travel on roads treated with chemicals.
• Frequent traffic jams or mountainous terrain.
• Use of the vehicle for hauling trailers or as a work vehicle, including taxi, patrol or commercial vehicles, etc.
