Use engine oil that meets Kia’s OEM specification for the 2012 Kia Rio, with the exact viscosity listed in the owner’s manual.

Using the correct OEM-spec oil helps maintain proper lubrication, deposits control, and cold-start protection for the Rio’s inline-4. Our Burlington technicians install oil and a Kia-approved filter that meet factory standards, then reset maintenance reminders and document your visit.

Fill to the 2012 Kia Rio’s factory oil capacity specified in the owner’s manual, then confirm on the dipstick after the engine runs.

The inline 4-cylinder’s capacity depends on whether the filter is replaced and should always be verified after warm-up on level ground. Our technicians measure precisely, install a Kia-approved filter, and torque the drain plug to spec to protect the aluminum oil pan. We also record the fill amount on your repair order for future reference.

• Capacity varies with filter replacement
• Verify level on level ground after warm-up
• Drain plug torqued to specification
