★ Top Answer
The 2012 Kia Sportage has a engine oil capacity of 4.9 US quarts, which is equal to 4.6 liters. It is recommended by Kia to use A5W-20 fully synthetic motor oil for this engine to ensure better performance and a longer lifespan for your vehicle. An oil change typically costs between $100 and $145, depending on the location. It only takes about an hour or less, so it's worth setting aside time for it. It is advisable to schedule an oil change every 4,000 to 5,000 miles. If you decide to do the oil change yourself, you can easily purchase the oil at your local Autozone or Walmart.
