The 2011 Kia Soul comes with 2 belts for most engines, but the 1.6 L engine has 3 belts. The spark plugs typically require replacement every 100,000 miles, unless it's a copper spark plug, which needs to be replaced every 30,000 miles. Your air filter should be replaced every 15,000 to 30,000 miles, and the coolant needs to be replaced every 60,000 miles. Various engine issues may arise, such as a loose gasket that needs tightening, a spark plug popping off causing problems, and the serious issue of engine overheating, which can lead to fires or even vehicle explosions. Excessive oil consumption may necessitate changing the oil sooner than expected, and any oil leaks should be promptly repaired.
The 2011 Kia Soul features a power steering belt and a serpentine belt in all trims. However, the Base trim with a 1.6 liter engine also includes a timing belt.
