KIA FORTE OIL CHANGE DIY! 2019-2021 KIA FORTE

[@ignaciotrevino73]

You could used a large plastic fountain drink cup to take off filter once it's loose. To avoid getting oil all over .

[@chevykamara2687]

Yeah he cranked on the oil plug. That could cause issues removing it later on because it gets hot and cold. I go hand tight then 1 full turn on the wrench for anyone interested

[@mrsaffects]

Facts. I saw that as well.

[@fireflycss82o]

I will give this a shot on mine, I'll let you know in 6 months how it comes off! I've never heard of putting new oil inside the new filter, though I have heard of lubing the seal on the new filter

[@brantisonfire]

I sought out this video just to see the socket size needed before I get underneath the car, but I stuck around for the whole thing. Your method is just how I learned when I took auto mechanics way back in 2005. The thing I remember most is to 9lube the gasket on the filter and then add some oil so it's not trying to dry-pull on first startup. Can't wait to introduce my son to this hobby and get him interested in being invested in the maintenance and care of his personal vehicle. Thanks!

[@artysgarage]

Awesome and thanks for sharing 👍 my dad was a mechanic and I grew up watch him do maintenance on his cars that’s why got me into the passion and love for cars and bikes!

[@mikeruizxd5534]

I normally slide my finger on the old oil filter seal and then use that oil to slide across the new oil filter seal to lube it. Great video! 👍 thanks man

[@artysgarage]

Appreciate you watching 🙏

[@DyltheKillsmith]

Just bought a Kia and this was helpful identifying where the filter and plug is. Thanks

[@artysgarage]

Congrats on the new car, and your welcome 🙏

[@albertomontes1969]

Awesome info just got 2019 kia now I know exactly what to look for. Thank you

[@artysgarage]

Thank you and your welcome 🙏

[@frankcalifano7970]

Don't over-tighten the bolt on the oil pan. The bolt should be screwed in by hand so you don't destroy the thread. Barely tighten with the wrench. You will never strip the thread on the oil pan and taking the bolt off for the next oil change won't be difficult. The same for the oil filter, tighten as much as you can by hand and less than a little nudge with the tool. Start the car while on the ramps. Inspect the filter and the pan bolt for leaks.

[@dodgerblue7381]

Like the oil, not sure about the filter but personal preference.

[@kyleendsley4310]

Give you a little advice for next time when you take the filter out take a hammer and a screwdriver and poke a hole in the bottom first so the oil drains out it won't run down your arm 😊

[@artysgarage]

🤔

[@mrsaffects]

Thank you for this video. I just changed my 2005 Kia Sedona oil. Interesting that, that also uses a 17". 5W 30 oil. I am willing to bet that they use the same oil filter. I actually will have to jack up my Forte GT. Not looking forward to it. Thank you again.

[@artysgarage]

You are very welcome and goodluck 🙏👍

[@autofocusacademy]

very easy to follow, great video 👍

[@zxtenn]

I have a 2021 Forte 6 speed manual, its so low my old floor jack wont fit underneath so i just bring to the dealer. GREAT car

[@Adavis97]

I got some drive up ramps and it makes it up them with about half an inch of clearance on the underside lol, Worth the investment! Just put some blocks on behind rear wheels and engage your parking break. Never had an issue!

[@zxtenn]

@@Adavis97 Thanks for the advice but i was looking at the price of a synthetic blend oil and decent filter, i really don't see that much of a savings

[@Ryabetic]

No drain plug crush washer?

[@thomastommy1192]

Great video thanks for sharing. What size oil filter wrench does a 2020 Kia Forte LXS use? Also, Can you tell me how many quarts of oil I should put in it? When changing the oil.

[@artysgarage]

I mentioned everything in the video

[@mrsaffects]

In the video he says "17" and then 4.5 quarts.

[@KerwinBarreto]

The cap of the drain plug is it the same or you put a new one ?

[@artysgarage]

Same

[@squishmonkey9717]

Thanks for the vid, super helpful and appreciate your attention to details. If only all tutorials were idiot proof 😅

[@artysgarage]

Anytime 🙏👍

[@fireflycss82o]

Is there any way to get at that filter without getting completely soaked? I'm about to do my first oil change! scored this puppy for 17.5 k after taxes and all, private buy. 10850 miles but they never changed the oil that I can tell

[@artysgarage]

You shouldn’t get soaked at all! Wear some gloves and don’t be to close to drain plug you should be fine 👍 good luck and let me know how your DIY works out!

[@adolforosales5184]

so to unscrew the oil filter does you go left or right for 2019 kia forte

[@johnyboy3606]

We're you able to set the miles for the next oil change on the vehicle dash?

[@artysgarage]

Yep, Put the key into ignition and turn it until everything lights up. You will get a message saying your oil service interval. Press the the button on the right side of your steering wheel right next Cruise button with two papers on it. Then scroll down until you see service interval on your screen and press ok on the steering wheel. It will ask if you want to reset the miles and time until next service hold the ok button down until it pops up saying it’s reset 7500 miles. If this is confusing to understand let me know I will make a follow up video for you.

[@johnyboy3606]

Hell yeah thanks I was able to follow it and figure it out, thanks so much just did the oil change yesterday perfect timing👍

[@mofo9886]

Great video, thank you.

[@artysgarage]

Happy to help 👍

[@bakiralhafidh2842]

the car takes 4.2 qts with the filter . i think you put more than that

[@edionicio08]

Any reason why not to go to the dealership for a first oil change? I can do myself but they offering a first free maintenance service . It’s a 2020 Kia Forte only 4,000 miles

[@artysgarage]

To be honest oil changes are easy and I kind of enjoy doing them when I have free time. Plus I like using my choice of oil! I do agree some car dealers off free oil service and it’s kind of a waste to pay out of pocket so it’s kind of person’s preference at this point 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@adaml2932]

I was told by the dealer they use synthetic blend oil from factory. I'm just curious why you went w/ Mobil 1, since it's a lease.

[@artysgarage]

I used synthetic aswell. Mobil 1 is just a brand of oil I use for many year on my cars ( personal preference )

[@adaml2932]

@@artysgarage the reason I'm asking is the factory uses synthetic blend but you upgraded to full synthetic. I'm curious as to why. Full synthetic is more money n Mobil 1 is among the most expensive oils anyway. It's a rental car, unless ur planning on buying after the lease is up

[@artysgarage]

You are right! It sounds a bit foolish for me to spend extra on a lease and then hand it back but I feel good when I use good oil or fuel up good fuel! I might be wasting money but like I mention in all my videos it personal preference I’m focusing more on to show how the process goes then marketing a brand for anyone to buy!

HA HA, I have the exact same car and oil filter wrench and it works great. TIP for you, after the filter is loose put an old sock or plastic bag all the way over it and then finish removing and you will have a lot less mess. Also, only use an SP rated oil that is semi synthetic.......

[@artysgarage]

Yea man that wrench really works and thanks for the advice on keeping the mess under control 🙏👍

[@ElonMuskX]

@@artysgarage How much was the Puralator filter? OEM was about $10.00 Glad to see your using the best.

[@artysgarage]

It was also around that much. I try my best to use oem products for my cars or try brands that have great ratings from customers! I don’t care if it’s my Kia or Porsche I like using good stuff on my cars 👍

[@MatthewCrook]

@@artysgarage On my vehicles i always just loosen the filter until the oil starts to run down the side of the filter and let it drain off the filter until it stops, then finish removing the filter to avoid as much mess. The filter usually has some contours for the oil to turn down.

Thank you so much. It does not say what type of oil to use in my owner's manual. It says to use 5w-29 but that is all it says. Unless I am missing something here. Can anyone help me. I have a 2020 Kia Forte LXS. ( It does not have the turbo engine.) Awesome honest video here. Thank you for sharing it. I will follow your channel from now on.

It's good practice to at least fill and allow it to soak up, especially on larger cars but smaller cars it isn't really necessary. You can never go wrong by reading your car's manual for step by step directions.
