In the 2009 Kia Sorento, you should use 5.5 quarts of SAE 5W-20 oil in the engine. Kia suggests using synthetic oil for better wear protection and longer lifespan compared to traditional petroleum-based oil. With synthetic oil, you may only need to change it every 7,500 miles instead of the usual 3,500 to 5,000 miles with conventional oil. I recommend checking your oil at least once a month to ensure it is full and clean to avoid any potential engine damage.
