The amount of oil that needs to be used in the 2012 Kia Soul iS3.5 quarts with a filter for the 1.6 L 4Cylinder and 4.2 quarts with a filter for the 2.0 L 4Cylinder engine. The type that needs to be used in the Soul iS5W-20 Synthetic Motor Oil or SAE 5W-30 if 5W-20 is not available for both engines. The oil and the filter needs to be changed every 7,500 to 10,000 miles. It needs to be changed every so often because it goes bad after a while and it helps to keep the engine clean. The cost of an oil change from a mechanic is anywhere from $40 to $60 in labor costs with extra in parts costs.
