• Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

High Mileage - Who’s got the most miles?

Let’s see pictures of that odometer!
 
Range is 130 miles on just less than a half a tank of gas?!? What gives?

Not even sure why I'm posting my mileage with RebelShadow out there! But, we are at 14,400 miles through 7 months. Nearing my 3rd oil change and tire rotation. Going to switch to fully synthetic at 20,000 miles.

Don't want to make this an oil thread for obvious reasons, but curious what oil you have used on the Sorentos and what you are using with the Telluride. You will receive no judgement from me. I'm just looking for the same results you have had with your Kia's, as we intend to drive this Telluride into the ground. :)
 
I think the sorento's were mobile 1 at least on the first Sorento, with the second I switched to Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 5w30 and use that in the Telly as well. For the GDI in the telluride there are really only 2 choices. Castrol Edge platinum I think and Pennzoil Ultra Platinum. Both are good but I favor the Pennzoil as natural gas is the base and not crude. After 7500K oil changes the Pennzoil actually looks cleaner, engine sounds better, smother, and I get slightly better gas mileage.

So how do you like driving the Telly? How do you find the comfort level of the seats and ride? What features do you most enjoy? What do you find yourself using the most/depending on? What would you want changed or tweaked? I’m right behind you at 110,000 miles, but I’ve been driving my car for 11 years!
