Rows marked in bold are the bigger milestone visits. How often you actually need service depends on load, towing, and driving habits — harder use means shorter intervals, and you'll find some Kia literature quoting an 8,000-mile routine cycle instead of 7,500, so let your Owner’s Manual settle it. When unsure, check the manual or ask a Dean McCrary Kia technician.

2023 Telluride Service FAQs
How Often Should I Change the Oil on a 2023 Kia Telluride?⌄
Under normal driving, Kia calls for an oil and filter change on the 2023 Telluride every 7,500 miles or 12 months, using full synthetic oil. If you're towing often, taking mostly short trips, driving dusty roads, or idling for long stretches, that's severe duty — and severe-duty drivers typically shorten the interval to roughly every 3,750 to 5,000 miles.
Does the 2023 Kia Telluride Require Synthetic Oil?⌄
Yes — the Telluride’s 3.8L GDI V6 calls for full synthetic SAE 5W-30. It's the synthetic formula that keeps the direct-injection system protected through muggy Pine Belt summers and the strain of towing.
When Should I Replace the Spark Plugs on a 2023 Telluride?⌄
Factory guidance puts spark plug replacement at 97,500 miles for the 3.8L V6's long-life iridium plugs under normal use. Regular heavy towing or sustained high-load driving is reason enough to have them checked sooner.
Does Following This Schedule Protect My Factory Warranty Coverage?⌄
It does. factory warranty remains in force as long as the factory-recommended maintenance gets done on time and the records are kept. Have us handle your service and every visit is logged automatically.
