• 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...

In late February 2021, I took my 2021 Kia Telluride to a local location of a national oil change outfit (Take5 Oil Change). When I arrived, the mechanics had no idea what oil filter the car took, or the oil used. They claimed the car was too new and that because they didn't have that information about the oil or the filter, they couldn't service my car. I found this hard to believe, since I got my car in October 2020 (and others likely before that), and we aren't dealing here with an unusual brand or model.

Anyway, in case I encounter this problem at other oil change locations, what should I tell the mechanics about the proper filter or oil for a 2021 Kia Telluride SX?

Many thanks.
 
If you stop in a "national oil change outfit" and they don't know what and how many oils has to be used take your Telluride and RUN AWAY don't risk your Telluride with some one who doesn't know how to do their job
