My kia soul has 40 thousand miles! It is like new. tomorrow I change the oil and filter. thanks for this great short and accurate video! greetings from New Jersey!
I can’t believe you have the exact same drain pan as me! I must have bought the thing 30 years ago. Anyway, sub’d, excellent video without all the frippery, thanks.
That's cool, I bought mine about 25 years ago. I remember because I just moved to another state and new job when I bought it. She's been a good one! Thanks for watching!
Thank you....Thank you very much! Oh and just curious, what filter did you use? Edited, sorry I didn't realize I had watched one of your videos where you talk about using the Kia filter and that filter wrench, thanks!
Dell, try punching this in a search engine, "904 79P 15". It should come up to Amazon. If not, it is a 79 mm 15 flats socket. The 904 model is very nice with 1/2 inch square drive plus hex head for wrenches, you can always reduce it down to 3/8 drive. Thank you for watching! Work safe!
Any chance you could update the description with time stamps and name of products u used in this video? I wanna buy every item u used and I wanna try to find them

I've had a 2010 Kia Soul for years, and just purchased a new 2020 Kia Soul S. I can't figure out how to reset the trip odometer. The button on the 2010 was visible, but this one has no button. HELP!
so I have the 2020 kia soul turbo and did my first oil change. I find it odd that Kia pointed the oil drain plug to the front of the vehicle, and in my case, caused the oil to run backwards causing all kinds of a mess. Do you have any suggestions to avoid the oil running towards the back of the vehicle?
I'm sorry to say I do not. The 2020 Soul non-turbo engine has a standard drain plug which allows draining oil to run away from the bottom cover. The opening in the cover is more than enough to drain without making a mess. Our 2020 Sorento OTOH has to have the entire bottom cover removed, 17 bolts hold it in place. I have not changed oil in it yet, but will shortly. Thanks for watching and commenting!!
Hello Rengi 13. I am compelled to ask you a few questions if I may. At what mileage are you supposed to change your oil. At what mileage did you have your oil changed? I ask because I am a new owner of the GT-Line Turbo as well.
L PAY First change was at 3500, just take off the plastic plate covering the underside. Mostly push pins but a few 10mm bolts holding it on. Really easy to remove but will provide a much cleaner oil change.
Good video. My wife took our 202 Kia Soul to the dealer for their free oil change. Got it back and the dipstick was showing higher than F. I had to drain around 1/3 a quart of oil, to get the dipstick to show near F. What do you think about that? Or is there some method of checking that I am not aware?
@@bigworldparty I remember years ago I had a car with a oil leak, a oil tech stripped the plug, and I wasnt motivated to get it looked at, I'd add oil, and one day I over filled it and it smoked while driving, I drained it down to normal and it stopped smoking. Oil will foul up spark plugs, and can clog a catalytic converter but if it's not being burned from being over filled, your engine is just better lubricated to a extent the extra oil can keep the engine oil slightly cooler, keeping area of high friction from getting as hot leading to decreased wear. Generally speaking 1/2qt over usually isn't a issue. The best thing you can do, is give it service at the correct intervals, and use synthetic
@@pmtips4482 I'm thinking that they want it done by mechanic with official milage record and date... otherwise how can you prove that you have changed the oil? Purchase receipt is not a proof...
@@borisboxer1690 don't worry too much about it. If there is a warranty question regarding the engine, just show all purchase receipts and make sure you have the right KIA oil filter on your car during inspection
Thanks for helping me perform my first at home oil change!
Glad to help!

Used to have an old Subaru with crappy small cutouts. But nothing a pair of industrial scissors couldn’t handle. 👋
Good idea!

First oil change was done at the dealership about do it myself this time
I don't blame you, it's a good feeling changing your own oil.

Where did you get your filter wrench I’ve been having trouble finding one that size thank you nice video

I've had a 2010 Kia Soul for years, and just purchased a new 2020 Kia Soul S. I can't figure out how to reset the trip odometer. The button on the 2010 was visible, but this one has no button. HELP!
Hi Linda! You can access the trip odometer from the menu buttons located on the right side of the steering wheel.

@@redpineapple9539 Thank you 😊👍
Mine keeps saying service check and there not an option to reset it?
Zakri, you should be able to adjust the service interval via the menu buttons on the right side of steering wheel.
Thanks for watching!
Every time I go on it it just says -79 miles
What size socket was the drain plug?
17mm
Thanks for watching!
Do I have to have the filter tool to get the filter off?
A filter wrench/socket would be best as the filter is a little elevated above the splash guard.
Thanks for watching!
which engine do you have?
2.0 liter.
Thanks for watching!
Full synthetic on Kia is 10,000

Good to know!
Thanks for watching!
How much oil did you use in the kia? Does it take 5qts?
It took 4.1 quarts to get it to the full mark. I let it drain for about an hour.

why does the oil look red?
It's not red, must be the light hitting it just right.
PUP is a clean amber color.
Thanks for watching!
what color comes from mixing yellow and black?
you SURE you drained the oil and not the transmission fluid? ;-)
Isn't it avoid warranty?
Boris, why would it do that?
KIA specifically allows owner oil changes, but you must keep all receipts of oil and filter purchases.
Thanks!
