Replying to: drnickerson (Oct 16, 2007 5:23 am) Hello drnickerson, Just did my first oil change (others by dealer) on my 2006. Used a filter cartridge from fram which came with new o-rings but not a new crush washer for the drain. I will get some from KIA dealer next time I am there. KIA.com has a great tech site you can get to from the home page > Kia Owners > Service Information > sign up > then go to "shop" for an on-line service and trouble shooting guide. Try the link below, you may not have to sign up. I was told by a mechanic at my father-in-laws auto shop that the deal with the torque wrench is all about not over-tightening and ruining the filter canister body. I just tightened mine very hand tight and have had no leaks in about 1K of trips. http://www.kiatechinfo.com/viewer/default.asp?group=shop George in Wisconsin.
