How Often Should You Replace Your Seltos’s Oil Filter?
Oil Filter Change Intervals
Every oil change swaps the filter too. Most current Kia models are due every 7,500 miles or 12 months on full synthetic, with some newer models trending closer to 8,000 miles — check our Kia oil change service for the full picture, and your model's precise figure on the Kia maintenance schedule.
Oil and filters both take a beating from Pine Belt driving. Frequent short trips, towing, heavy dust, stop-and-go traffic, and summer heat over 90°F all count as severe use, roughly cutting the interval in half — our advisors will dial in your reminders to the right cycle.
The Seltos filter comes out with every oil change: 8,000 miles/12 months for the 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, or a shorter 6,000 miles/12 months for the pre-2024 1.6L turbo-GDI (DCT). Check the full Seltos maintenance schedule for your exact engine.
Signs You Need a New Oil Filter
Don’t wait for the next sticker if you notice any of these — bring your Kia in:
Oil pressure warning light illuminated on the dash
Oil leaking or seeping from the filter housing
Oil looking dark or sludgy soon after a recent change
Ticking or knocking noise that can signal oil starvation
It’s simply time for your next scheduled oil change
What Type of Oil Filter Does a Kia Seltos Take?
Fitting your Kia and being built to the right spec aren’t the same thing. See how the three tiers compare below — and why we always install the Kia-specified filter for your exact engine.
Standard Aftermarket
Change with every oil service
Basic filtration
Built to fit many engines loosely
Not verified for turbo/GDI oil pressure
Genuine Kia OEM
Change with every oil service
Exact flow & pressure-relief match
Anti-drainback valve to spec
Standard media, not high-capacity
What We Use
High-Capacity (Turbo/GDI)
Change with every oil service
Kia-specified for turbo & GDI engines
Higher dirt-holding capacity
Engineered for Pine Belt heat
Exact OEM fit, every time
Every oil filter replacement here gets the Kia-specified filter for your exact engine — never a generic “one size fits most” part.
Why Get Your Oil Filter Changed at Dean McCrary Kia?
Sure, a quick-lube shop down the road can slap in a generic filter. Here’s what only a Kia dealer offers — at pricing that still competes with the shop down the street.
Factory-Trained Kia Seltos Technicians
Our techs train on Kia powertrains specifically — GDI, turbo, hybrid, and EV systems — not a little bit of every brand.
Genuine Kia Seltos Parts & Fluids
We use exact-spec filters and oil. “Universal fit” aftermarket parts are a top cause of both repeat visits and denied warranty claims.
Recall & Software Checks — Free
Open recalls, service campaigns, and control-module software updates can only be done at a Kia dealer. We check for all three at every visit. Check your recalls — free for every Kia owner across the Pine Belt.
Factory Warranty, Documented
Each visit gets logged straight into your factory warranty record automatically — nothing to file, nothing to chase down later — the way Kia owners across the Pine Belt expect it done.
Transparent, Upfront Pricing
The OEM filter, fresh synthetic oil, and the inspection all come bundled into one flat price, confirmed before we start — no surprises when you check out.
We Know What Kias Need
With hundreds of Kias coming through every month, we keep the right filter for your exact engine on the shelf — a level of readiness a shop that sees a handful of Kias a year can’t match.
Kia Seltos Oil Filter FAQs
How Much Does a Kia Seltos Oil Filter Replacement Cost?⌄
Pricing at Dean McCrary Kia depends on your model and engine. Pick your Kia above for current pricing and coupons; every replacement includes a genuine Kia OEM filter matched to your engine, fresh full synthetic oil, and a multi-point inspection, with Military and First Responder discounts stacking on top with valid ID.
How Often Should I Replace My Seltos’s Oil Filter?⌄
It swaps out every time the oil gets changed. Most current models are due every 7,500 miles or 12 months, some newer ones closer to 8,000 — whichever hits first, though severe driving conditions common across the Pine Belt can shorten that. Check the Kia maintenance schedule for your model’s exact figure.
Is a Genuine Kia Seltos Oil Filter Really Different From an Aftermarket One?⌄
It does. A genuine Kia OEM filter is engineered to your engine's exact flow rate, pressure relief valve, and anti-drainback spec, while generic aftermarket filters are often built to loosely fit many engines rather than yours precisely — which can hurt oil pressure and filtration quality, especially on turbo and GDI engines.
Can I Just Replace the Oil Filter Without a Full Oil Change?⌄
We’d steer you away from that. Filter and oil are meant to be serviced as a pair — a fresh filter paired with old, degraded oil loses much of its point. That’s why every oil filter replacement here comes with fresh Kia-approved full synthetic oil.
What Happens If I Skip an Oil Filter Change?⌄
A clogged, aging filter loses filtration efficiency, and some can even start bypassing unfiltered oil straight into the engine. Left long enough, that speeds up wear on bearings and other internal parts and can shorten the engine’s life.
Can I Finance My Kia Seltos Service?⌄
You can — Dean McCrary Kia’s service financing lets you service now and pay later. Break your oil filter replacement, brake job, or any other repair into monthly payments with a check-in application that takes about a minute, and checking your options never touches your credit score.

“After a wreck totaled my Sorento, I came to Dean McCrary to get another one. Daniel Saucier was my salesperson and he made things so easy and seamless! I ended up leaving in a brand-new 2026 Sorento that I love even more. Thanks Daniel!”
