Replying to: tcsf (Oct 20, 2008 3:10 am) If I were you, I would not change oil more often than the "severe" service interval for the car (what is that, 3000 miles?) or every 6 months, whichever comes first. However, changing out that original oil real quick was a good idea.
#769 of 855 Variable Valve Timing Control and check engine light by bifph Oct 29, 2008 (9:23 am)
My 2006.5 Kia Optima has had its check engine light come on at 40,000 miles due to the Variable Valve Timing Control (VVTC) according to my mechanic.   Has anyone here had a similar experiance? How was it eventually solved? Replies to this message: backy (Oct 29, 2008 7:04 pm)

Replying to: bifph (Oct 29, 2008 9:23 am) Or just take it to your friendly neighborhood Kia dealer and have them fix it, since it's still under warranty.

#773 of 855 30k Miles service Replaces Spark Plugs by epekarik Nov 30, 2008 (2:19 pm)
Hello,   Most of today's cars call for plug replacement at 100k but the Optima 2006.5+ calls for every 30k. Is it because the plug type that is installed at the factory and a better plug would go farther, or is it the design of the engine?   \thnx Endre Replies to this message: csandste (Nov 30, 2008 8:49 pm)

Replying to: epekarik (Nov 30, 2008 2:19 pm) I've always suspected that the high maintenance costs are there to offset the cost of the warranty.

Replying to: epekarik (Nov 30, 2008 1:48 pm) Yes, you have a cabin filter and your fuel filter is in the tank.   As mentioned on the Kia forum most of your questions are answered in your owners manual &/or in the online service manual.

Replying to: epekarik (Nov 30, 2008 1:48 pm) The cabin air filter is behind the glove box, and the fuel filter is in the gas tank. Replies to this message: epekarik (Dec 21, 2008 9:19 am) mickeyrom (Dec 21, 2008 9:31 am) epekarik (Jan 02, 2009 3:09 pm) and 1 more...
#777 of 855 Hey, mickeyrom and csandste... by iluvmysephia1 Dec 20, 2008 (6:41 pm)
take a look at my '08 Mitsubishi Lancer GTS parked next to a new world order 2006.5 and/on Kia Optima. I had just parked outside a Tucson Barnes and Noble to read up on the latest car magazines when the good inpiration hit me to grab my BlackBerry cellphone and snap a pic of these two attractive babies.     The two cars have very different body designs but I dig them both.   I like the new world order Optima's and the Optima was on my finalist's list of possibilities before I snagged this '08 Lancer GTS at Avondale Mitsubishi of Avondale, AZ (located about 9 miles west of Phoenix). Lovin' this Arizona sun and lack of snow and ice, gentlemen. Replies to this message: mickeyrom (Dec 20, 2008 7:02 pm)
