Kia servicing

Lemonadedrinker

Hi All. I have bought a 68 plate Kia which has only done 17000 miles, its service is due in November, when I tried to book it a service it says its a 30000 mile service.. Im a little confused do I have the car serviced annually or by mileage to keep the kia warranty. Thanks in advance for any help

It depends which model you have, a quick google search gave me this. https://www.group1auto.co.uk/kia/how-often-should-i-service-my-kia

It's quite simple however many 1000s of miles or however many months usually 12. Whatever comes first is what you go by, your service schedule should tell you. Yours is three years old so I guess it's every 10000 miles.

Kia work on X miles or X months whichever is 1st.
So you 3 year old (petrol car at a guess) will be a 30K/3 year service, even though it has done less miles.

Official Kia service timescales.

This. Previously I was doing 25k a year (Kia Sportage) so it was getting serviced twice a year every time it hit a multiple of 10k. The annual service therefore never came into play.
