The Full 2022 Kia Soul Service Timeline, Mile by Mile
First visit, 7,500 miles: oil & filter change, tire rotation, and a multi-point inspection — all due for the first time.
15,000 miles brings the repeat oil & filter change, tire rotation, and multi-point inspection, plus a first cabin air filter swap.
22,500 miles: back for the routine oil & filter change, tire rotation, and multi-point inspection.
By 30,000 miles, add a first engine air filter change to the usual oil & filter, tire rotation, and multi-point inspection.

127,500 miles: oil & filter change, tire rotation, and multi-point inspection repeat.
135,000 miles: oil & filter, tire rotation, multi-point inspection, and cabin air filter.
142,500 miles: oil & filter change, tire rotation, multi-point inspection, and another brake fluid exchange.
150,000 miles closes out the chart: oil & filter change, tire rotation, multi-point inspection, engine air filter, and engine coolant.
Rows shaded above mark the major milestones; how you drive can shift these intervals, since severe conditions call for more frequent service. The Soul is an exception among current Kias — its 7,500-mile (or 12-month) oil-and-filter rhythm matches this chart exactly, rather than stretching to the newer 8,000-mile norm (severe-duty drivers should plan closer to 3,750–5,000 miles). The cabin air filter comes due first at 15,000 miles and every 30,000 after; the engine air filter starts at 30,000 miles and repeats roughly every 30,000 miles (about 24 months); brake fluid gets exchanged every 48,000 miles/48 months. Spark plug timing splits by engine — 96,000 miles for the 2.0L, 42,000 miles for the 1.6L turbo (GT-Line/Turbo trim) — and engine coolant is first flushed at 120,000 miles/120 months, then every 30,000 miles thereafter. When in doubt, check your Owner’s Manual or ask a Dean McCrary Kia technician.

2022 Soul Service Questions
How Often Does a 2022 Kia Soul Need an Oil Change?⌄
Under normal driving, Kia calls for a full-synthetic oil and filter change every 7,500 miles or 12 months on the 2022 Soul. Conditions like frequent towing, short trips, dusty roads, or lots of idling count as severe use and shorten that window — many drivers in that category are better off every 3,750–5,000 miles.
Is Synthetic Oil Required for the 2022 Kia Soul?⌄
Yes — Kia specifies full synthetic SAE 5W-30 across both the 2.0L and 1.6L turbo Soul engines. It’s what protects the direct-injection system (and the turbocharger on GT-Line/Turbo trims), and it holds up better through our hot, humid Pine Belt summers.
When Do the Spark Plugs Need Replacing on a 2022 Soul?⌄
That depends on which engine you have: roughly 96,000 miles for the 2.0L, but only about 42,000 miles on the 1.6L turbo (GT-Line/Turbo trim), since the turbo runs hotter and burns through plugs faster.
Does My 2022 Soul Still Have factory warranty Coverage?⌄
It depends on the in-service date, current mileage, and ownership history behind your particular Soul — whether that’s factory warranty or the factory 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain plan. For a 2022 model, that coverage may already have lapsed. Bring your VIN and service records by and we’ll pin down exactly where you stand; keeping up with this schedule is what protects any coverage you still have.
