The correct oil protects the engine during cold starts and high-load conditions while supporting hybrid system efficiency.

When in doubt, book a visit and we’ll confirm the proper oil on arrival.

• Verify viscosity on the oil filler cap and in the manual
• Install an OEM-quality filter for correct flow and seal
• Avoid mixing viscosities; stick to the approved spec

Refer to the capacity listed in your owner’s manual; we fill the 2018 Kia Optima-Plug-In-Hybrid to factory spec and verify on the dipstick.
