7.5k package ($130) include oil change + filter change, tyre rotation, as well as a list of inspections, I believe those inspections are listed in the owner manual as well. 15k package ($240) includes above, plus cabin air filter change, as well as fuel tank air filter inspection, vapor hose...

I am a relatively new owner of 19soul. I found a website (kisouman.com) claiming itself soul's maintenance manual. It suggests first service to be done at 7500mi OR 6 MONTH. however the user manual says service should be done every 7500mi or 12month, including the first one I believed in the...

I have a bit of problem with dealer-recommended service schedule for so called 'severe driving conditions' in southern Ontario. With high quality, fully synthetic 5W20 oil, there is no reason I can see for adopting the dealer's recommended schedule as compared to following the factory...

Does anyone here have the Service Manual for a 2011 Soul, 2.0L engine? And is willing to share it? I have the 2012 SM (both engines), and although the body and suspension are identical, the engine and transmission are different. And the steering is electrical, not hydraulic. I see the 2011 for...

I brought our 2017 in with 13,000 miles for an oil change and tire rotation yesterday at the express service center. I have to say I was very happy with the experience. I drove in at 10:00 and was out by 10:35. I had some coupons and the total with taxes/fees etc. was $40.14. The car had...

Was talking to a 10 year Kia repairman the other day about the issues with the 2.0 engines in the Sorento, Sportage and Optima. He told me That the Kia dealers buy and use cheap oil causing the engine to wear down quicker over time . Making more money in their service Dept. Has anyone heard...

I have a 2018 Exclaim and our dealers have very high prices and are 45 minutes away. I am coming up on 1500 miles when I usually get the oil and filter changed and go with pure synthetic. My question is whether I should go to the dealer or work with an independent for this service, and which...

DIY full service tranny oil change 1.6 auto As promised I was going to post how to do a DIY full tranny oil change the right way without using any kind of machine or paying ridiculous dealer prices. Sorry if the pictures come out sideways if someone can fix them I would appreciate it. Tools...

So my car just hit 29K miles & will be in need of the 30K major service...called some dealerships here in the San Diego area, prices ranged from $400-$620, they were all willing to knock off $60 since I do my own air/cabin filters (drive in the desert a lot). How much did you pay for yours...

A while back a fellow forum participant kindly posted a link to a manual available via Tradebit.com. Cost: US$14.95. I bought it, downloaded it and it tells me the manual is for a Kia Soul 2014-2014. Is that a typo? The website indicated that I was purchasing a 2015 manual. The...

Today was my first visit to my local Kia dealer for a oil change on a new to me 2015 base M6. I asked for a quote on a trans drain and fill and was quoted 150.00 plus tax. Ouch. It might take the tech 10 minutes to drain and fill a manual trans with 2 quarts of fluid. Why so much?

I need instructions on a manual trans fluid change please. What is the best fluid choice for the hot Florida climate?

For all Kia Soul cars, there are available for read, free, the Owner manuals: Kia Soul owners manuals, user guides, repair, service manuals Also there there are the invaluable (for a DIY guy) Service Manuals for the second gen Soul, but not for the first gen. The site used to let you download...

Just got this letter in the mail yesterday. Is this a new campaign or something old that I'm just receiving after 3 months of ownership? Long story short... its a page that was missing from the owners manual effecting Gen I, Gen II and EVs about rollover risk.

Finally put 7,500 on the Soul. Dropped it off at the dealer for the first 7,500 mile service. Picked it up and realized they only did oil change. Tech said that the other things were not needed yet. Also surprised that the OEM oil is a blend and not full synthetic yet they advise that it lasts...

After reading so many complaints about poor service at Kia dealers, I'm just tickled silly that I get such GOOD service from Citrus Kia, Crystal River, FL. Two days ago, I got a brand new Key Fob, from my Kia dealer, FREE, under warranty. Today I called the same service writer that took such...

https://www.carcomplaints.com/Kia/Soul/2013/tsbs/ There aren't any recalls out for my 2013 1.6L auto, but I noticed a bunch of TSBs here that I didn't find in this thread: http://www.kiasoulforums.com/10-soul-problems/21193-tsb-technical-service-bulletin.html The last time I took my car in for...

Any know for sure if this schedule offered by the dealer is an official Kia recommended service schedule or a dealer recommended service schedule? Confused.:confusion:

I've had Haynes shop manuals for other cars and motorcycles in the past, but they don't appear to have one available for the Soul. Are there any other similar options out there for the 2nd gen Soul? FWIW I'm not a mechanic, and highly unlikely to do much / any actual work on the car myself...

Hi, gang! I took my little Cocoa to the dealership for her first service. The service advisor knew right off the bat that I was "old-school", meaning that I bought my car in for her first service at 3,000 - 3,500. He told me that nowadays, cars go to 5,000 for their first service. I was like...
