The 2007 Kia Sportage requires 4.2 quarts of oil for the 2.0L 4-cylinder engine and 4.8 quarts for the 2.7L V6 engine. Both engine types use SAE 5W-20 oil, and it is recommended by Kia to use synthetic oil for better wear protection. There are two main types of oil: synthetic, which is crafted in a lab to provide enhanced protection from wear, and conventional, made from petroleum. Typically, synthetic oil allows for longer intervals between changes, around 7,500 miles compared to 3,500 to 5,000 miles for conventional oil. It's advisable to check your oil monthly to ensure it is clean and at the correct level.
