Rows shaded darker mark the major milestones. Engine load, towing habits, and driving conditions can all shift these intervals — severe-duty use tightens them, and some Kia documentation cites an 8,000-mile routine cycle instead of 7,500. Your Owner’s Manual is the final word; when in doubt, confirm with a Dean McCrary Kia technician.

2026 Telluride Maintenance FAQs
How Often Should I Change the Oil on a 2026 Kia Telluride?⌄
Under normal driving, Kia calls for an oil and filter change on the 2026 Telluride every 7,500 miles or 12 months, with full synthetic oil required. If your driving qualifies as severe duty — lots of towing, short hops, dusty roads, or long idling stretches — plan on a shorter interval; many owners in that category switch closer to every 3,750–5,000 miles.
Does the 2026 Kia Telluride Require Synthetic Oil?⌄
The 3.8L GDI V6 in the Telluride calls for full synthetic SAE 5W-30 per Kia’s specification. This synthetic formulation shields the direct-injection components and keeps performing through Pine Belt’s hot, humid summers and under towing loads.
When Should I Replace the Spark Plugs on a 2026 Telluride?⌄
Long-life iridium spark plugs come standard in the 3.8L V6, with Kia setting the factory swap interval at 97,500 miles for normal use. Drivers who tow heavily or run sustained high loads may want them inspected sooner.
Does Following This Schedule Protect My Factory Warranty Coverage?⌄
Yes — factory warranty remains in force provided factory-recommended maintenance is completed on schedule and documented. Bring your Telluride to us and we log each visit automatically.
