Be sure to read the Owners Manual Mtc. Schedule and
use some common sense. My Kia dealer wanted to treat my
car as "severe duty" just because I live in Canada !
... and over-maintain it to that extent.
- which would have cost me a couple thousand dollars extra
if I didn't insist on following the published Mtc. Schedule.
Guess what - 8 years 165 k km later - the car is just fine.
