Automatic Transmission Fluid ATF Drain & Fill Complete HD KIA Sorento 2016-2017
Thanks - Навчання та стиль
Best video I have seen.My 2017 sorento was missing 2 bolts for bellypan the
day I drove it home from "dealer".I called service and asked them to send me 2
bolts as we were 40 miles away. It took weeks for this to take place and many
emails.I have just turned 20,000 miles and wouldn't trust that dealership to do
the job right, thanks to your video.
Thanks man, you got a subscriber out of me for this. My kia dealer wants almost $300. I thought the fluid had to be hand pumped through the case like my camry but now that I know it dont I can follow your video. I cant thank you enough. A million thanks 🙏
You are most welcome. I am glad to know I could help you. Thank you for watching, commenting and the kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Richard, I appreciate the in-depth video. Honestly, it was easier to do than the video makes it seem. The fill plug was not that hard to get to. I am also missing the underbelly splash pan (bought it used with 28k miles) so that part was skipped. I didn't obsess about how much fluid I put in either. I just poured it in until it started coming out the fill level hole, let it drain a bit as I put way too much in, closed it up, put it through the gears, pulled the fill level plug again just to make sure it was still a steady stream, and then put 700ish mL in and done. But hey, thanks, the visual reference was key. Also, this cured cured a very wonky-shifting transmission, hard shifts, delay and then a jerk... shifts smoothly and quietly in the background now. Also, make sure you go to your dealer and have them check to see that you have the latest transmission shift logic; newest is only a year or two old I think.
Richard, Thanks for the video. Answered all the questions I had for my 2015 Sedona. Glad to find the full plug on the side of the tranny so I could get the proper fill level rather than depending on the fluid level being correct previous to being drained.
Thank you for sharing the video. I just changed the transmission oil on my wife’s 2016 Kia Sedona. Same procedure, except I had to remove the battery and battery try to gain access to the filler bolt. The oil looked like Dr. Pepper at 33k miles. Thanks again
Great tip! Thank you. I removed the battery based on your comment and it made the fill process so much easier. This only adds about 10 minutes to the whole job, but it saves a lot of frustration dealing with that fill bolt at an angle.
I sent my car to a normal workshop. What they did was, they poured in the new AT oil just as much as what was drained out. That simple. But watching your video made me realize that they didn't clean up that drain plug. I take note now for the next service. Thank you for the video!
Boss I’m a Kia tech and they had to remove that drain plug to drain the fluid. Now if they cleaned it off or not idk but you have to be a moron to not clean it
You are a perfectionist!! Very well-done video, now I feel better about changing my Cadenza`s transmission fluid. But, I will accurately quantify the initial drain volume so I get it real close on refilling. Not hard to do with old 5 liter empties. Thanks for the excellent and very helpful presentation.
Just wanted to suggest that you do fill it till it spills out of the level port. If the transmission is not correctly fill originally you will be putting back exactly the same (incorrect) amount if you just measure what came out. Example if it was overfilled if you put back what came out you will overfill it again. If it was under filled you and you put back the same amount that came out you will under fill it again. Thank you so much for watching, commenting and the valuable feedback. I appreciate it greatly. All the best. 👍😀
I like the attention to details this guy presents. He does it right or wont do it at all.
This was a wonderful video and it helped me tremendously. I have two comments about my experience:
1) A 15/16" socket is the same size as a 24mm socket. Fortunately I already had a 15/16" socket.
2) When doing the final filling of the transmission after you have replaced the fill level plug, I still filled it too quickly even though I thought I was being very careful. Belatedly I learned that every time I hear a "burp", it meant that transmission fluid was burping from the transmission, leaking around the funnel and spilling onto the ground. The only ways to avoid this appears to be either inserting an "air tube" inside the funnel as described above by Jim Mulcahey, or by using a quart bottle to slowly fill - this is easier to control than pouring out of a gallon jug. I also learned I could avoid spilling by pouring it in so slowly that I could actually hear the fluid dripping into the transmission; I would then stop, wait 5-10 seconds, and start another tiny pour.
Thanks again, Richard for your great work.
You're most welcome. I'm glad and very happy to know that I could help you. Thank you so much for watching, commenting, the very kind words and the valuable feedback. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Phenomenal video....best how to Auto video I’ve ever seen on youtube
Excellent instructional video. Clear spoken, detailed, and organized. Bravo!

Thanks for another video. I think sometimes you are not precise with terms (drain plug and level plug) so some people may be confused. I had to watch your other videos to fully understand the process.
Thank you so very much for this video. Changed trans fluid in my 16 sorento without an issue. You are awesome!!!!
Jesus Bless you for doing what you do!!!! :)
You're most welcome. Comments like this make my DAY! 😁️ I'm glad to know I could help you and that you got value from my work here. Thank you for watching, commenting and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Thanks Richard, best DIY video I've seen on youtube. Very informative and precise. kind regards Joe
You are most welcome. Thank you for watching, commenting and the kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Richard Lloyd how often you tried to get done completely transmissions fluid changed I mean how many days you did three times or all at once you got it done is it same procedure with every car you did Kia how about Honda and Hyundai Toyota are they the same the measurement part you did how much you drain out in total total 80% or 90 %
Outstanding video, sir. Thank you for taking the time to explain the procedure so thoroughly.

BMW here in England charge over £300 for a 5 series auto transmission oil and filter change. Got one of those temperature gauges great tool, great helpful video as always.
It is crazy how much they charge for basic service items though I have seen transmissions now that have both the fill and drain ports on the bottom of the transmission case (VW). Boy that looks like fun. That temperature gauge is a handy unit to own. I am surprised at how often I use it and not just for automotive purposes alone I also use it in the kitchen too. LOL it's a handy tool. Thanks again Paul for watching and commenting. All the best.
Richard Lloyd re, the VW transmission, some BMWs are like that, on certain bm autos you have to go through gears and leave it running in drive to do the level at 30/50 Oc, i kid you not, those temp gauges are great in the kitchen.
Check your fridge?
LOL, yes I have as well as my deep freeze unit. It's nice to verify they are working correctly too. It's like the engineers are being told, "Make them impossibly hard to service." Thanks again. All the best.
Muchas gracias me sirvió de mucho tú información
Just what I was looking for... thanks so much and god Bless
Thanks so much, I have to do this today and this video is going make it a lot easier. 2017 Kia Sorrento shifting very bumpy.

thanks very much, i drained atf by accident, so this was important to avoid towing it to KIA, thanks again
You are most welcome. Thank you for watching and the kind words. All the best.
Sehr gut beschrieben, habe das Öl nach der Beschreibung gewechselt und es funktioniert einwandfrei, Danke
Ich bin froh und sehr glücklich zu wissen, dass ich Ihnen helfen konnte. Vielen Dank fürs Zuschauen, Kommentieren und die netten Worte. Ich schätze es sehr. Alles Gute.👍😀
Rich thanks for the upload. If you still own this Kia Sorento, would you consider uploading a oil catch can install video? as this is a highly recommended procedure for this car & all direct injection vehicles.
Could you tell me what will happen to my gearbox if I use dx 3 instead of sp3 that was mentioned in the manual of my vehicle?
This is the best, complete video I've found on kia transmission flushes. Quality camera work too. Anytime the dealership recommends anything on my 2015 optima, I just UA-cam/ Google it and do it myself or take it to a different shop and have them do it bc dealership mark up is insane. They wanted 88 dollars to change my cabin air filter. The part was around 11 dollars and the swap out took 60 seconds at most. Dealerships are crazy I just use mine for free oil changes and tire rotations.
I totally understand. BTW I have a video on the cabin filter too! LOL Thank you so much for watching, commenting and the kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
old james totally agree
Yeah I changed out my own cabin air filter too, dang I can't believe their prices lol. They called me over $1,000 for the 90K mile service. Heh I'm just having my mechanic do each one myself as I can pay for it for 1/3 the cost or whatever
Great video, very helpful! Thank you!
I'm just trying to figure out where I add Lucas to my transmission, I can't find the fill port.
Hey I have a 2013 KIA SOUL, is it the same perseager as you just done here .
Great video!!! Is that Valvoline ATF fluid compatible for 2015 Kia Forte 5,6 speed automatic transmission. The dealership said I need type F fluid.
Exactly what I was looking for Richard. Precise and well presented in a easy relaxed no nonsense procedure that was easy to follow. Thank you from Ireland, I subscribed and happy to do so.
You're most welcome. I'm glad to know I could help you and that you got value from my work here. Comments like this make my day 😁️ Thank you for watching, commenting and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Am here
I get a question. Once you fill it about 5 liter and before adding 700mL for level check. Did you drive the vehicle? I hear you said that you took it for a spin. The maintenance manual omits any driving procedure. Please tell me if you drove the vehicle or you just warmed up at idle for 10-15 minutes. Thanks for your videos. Great presentation
Hello Richard,
I've tried to look at the user manual, but there's no specific time frame to change/drain-fill transmission oil. at how many miles should I change it?
Also, what I did for my Honda transmission was I did 3 cycles (Remove/add), its a little more expensive, still cheaper than the dealer. worked better.
Thanks a lot for this very useful video
Great instructional video. Thanks!
You are most welcome. I am glad to know I could help you. Thank you for watching, commenting and the kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
There likely isn't a big difference if you work quick but I would think the fluid level is level ground, engine running. When you stop engine the trans pump is no longer continually pushing fluid into torque converter and keeping it full. The torque converter will drain slowly once engine stops. The rate of drain will vary with temperature of the fluid. The only way you know the torque converter is full and hasn't bled and raised level in sump is to have engine running. The other makes using fill n spill like this one have you run engine as well as all others in the past that have dipsticks.
Thanks for such a well made made video!
You're most welcome. Comments like this make my DAY! 😁️ I'm glad to know I could help you and that you got value from my work here. Thank you for watching, commenting and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Finally I found my mistake,I dint remove the leverage bolt,wonder the fluid won't in.tq for your video.❤️
I'm glad to hear you figured it out. Thank you for watching, commenting and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
This video was very helpful thank you

HELLO, could u please help me how to replace ATF for my car Sorento 3500 2015 6 cylinder .
Great video, super helpful thanks
Is the same transmission used on the Jeep Patriot?
Great video as always
I Have A 2016 sorento AWD 4cyl. Are the fill /drain / check, plugs in the same layout or close? Also I want to put in a dip stick/ tube kit if it exists. Any one?
I have a 2010 sorento....is process the same
Thank you for a great video
Hi Richard, love your videos. I'm looking at changing transmission fluid the on my 2004 Sorento, will this be the same sort of set up? Just in struggling to find a video on this model and would you know if my model has a changeable filter? Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.
It more than likely will be. Though the 2004 MAY have a dipstick to check the level. Thank you so much for commenting, watching and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀

Thanks much. Using Castrol TransMax Import though. Just preferred.
Castrol is great product too. You're most welcome and thank you so much for commenting and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
About this model of gearbox. It has oil filter? Thank you
Good job!
Does this have a transmission filter?
Thanks a ton for the video, this helped me a lot. What size was the bolt for the bottom engine cover? I have several missing on our 2016 Sorento as well from the previous owner servicing the car and not replacing them.
You're most welcome. I'm not sure what they were. I no longer own the car so I can't verify it. I would guess that they are 10mm but that's only a guess. I suggest taking one out and taking it to your local hardware store to find a match, try also the local salvage yard for a spare too. But seeing as it's so hot right now, I would go to the hardware store. You will be looking at the metric bolts only. Thank you so much for commenting and watching. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Thanks, very helpful.
Great video, thanks a lot!!
watching, commenting and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Richard, muy buen video, pero que paso con el filtro de aceite de la transmision, por que no lo cambiastes.
Saludos y exelente servicio.
El filtro es un filtro interno de malla de acero y no es una pieza de servicio requerida (no recomendado por el fabricante). Tendrías que desmontar la transmisión para reemplazarla. En realidad, solo está ahí para atrapar partículas grandes y metal, lo que de todos modos no debería suceder. A veces, en la fabricación hay algo de metal mecanizado (fresado) que no se obtiene y el filtro atrapa todos esos fragmentos. Gracias por mirar, comentar y las amables palabras. Lo aprecio mucho. ¡Suscríbete, haz clic en la campana y mantente atento! Todo lo mejor.👍😀
The filter is an internal steel mesh filter and is not a required service part (not recommended by the manufacturer). You would have to disassemble the transmission to replace it. Really it's only there to catch large particles and metal which should really not be happening anyway. Sometimes in manufacturing there are some machined (milled) metal that they don't get and the filter would catch all of those fragments. Thank you for watching, commenting and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. Subscribe, Click The Bell and stay tuned! All the best.👍😀
I thought it was interesting that someone notched the bottom cover for oil drain plug access because on my wife’s 2015 Sorento EX 3.3 the cover had an access notch from the factory. Can’t understand why they would change that. They must have had some reason they thought was good.
How I will check my gear oil ?where is the level?
Excellent video. Don't know if you have considered installing an oil catch can on your KIAs? I installed one on my 2016 Kia Soul+ (2L) last spring...amazing the crap it prevents getting back into the engine, especially on the GDI engines. Regards.
I will consider doing so. Does your oil last longer because of it? Thanks.
I will consider doing so. Does your oil last longer because of it? Thanks.
It has nothing to do with making the oil last longer. Rather, it addresses the issue of blow-by accumulating on the back of the intake valves.

There is a lot of information available on this design flaw.
IMHO, this is guaranteed income (make work) for the Dealers!
Hi Richard I have a Kia Sorento SX 2017, 7000 Miles on it for some reason the card transmission radiator cooling hose damaged and start spelling oil the transmission oil out, we did not drive on it far away just couple of meters to get it home. Now after I fixed everything back again and followed your youtube video step by step, my gear has no reverse and delay between shifts, so what is your recommendation. please help I'm in deep depress.
With 7000 miles you car still has a full factory warranty. Take it in to the dealer and ask to have it fixed. Thanks.
use a funnel with a thin, deep end ($3 at Walmart, blue funnel top and red funnel tube). It only took me 2 minutes to pour in a full gallon or 4 qts.
Hello Richard.
I own 2013 hyundai santa fe 3.3 liter engine 6 speed automatic transmission same as Kia sorento. I just wonder if after replacing the atf fluid it started shifting smoother from 1st gear to 2nd gear when the car is cold? I am having the same problem...
thank you
Yes it has improved. I no longer notice it when it's cold. I am going to change it once more on the next oil change. I am also considering disconnecting the battery for 10 minutes to reset the transmission database that adapts the transmission to the driving conditions but at this point I am happy with how it is working. Thanks. All the best.
Thanks Rick,my problem now when I put an automatic fluid on gearbox it makes noise as though it shows as it jump
Sorry to hear that. Make sure you have the level correct. I have done this service on 7 different cars now including two fords, 3 KIA's, two Hyundai's without any problem at all. Easily over 50,000 miles all told. They seem to be happy. I hope you solve your issue. Thank you for watching and commenting. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
I bought kia k5 2016 GLP use combustible un motor 2.0 number 028249 4 cilinder what oil I need to buy hope your ansewr
Any idea what the fill port o-ring part number is? The procedure calls to change all three gaskets which could be subjective.
Really I have no idea. I have done this very many times and the drain washer never wore out and the O-ring also has not failed. If you wish to find out the part numbers I would contact your local KIA service department. I am sure they will be happy to give you those numbers. Thank you so much for commenting, watching and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Great video with detailed explanations. Do you still have the 2016 Kia? How many miles do you have on it? The reason I ask is I am reading about Kia engines failing and I have a 2016 Kia. Thanks again for your videos!
Unfortunately I no longer own it. It ran fantastic when I owned it but I had less than 100,000 miles on it when I relinquished ownership. Is the engine problem with the 6 cylinder? The engine always felt strong and smooth. I used all synthetic oil and changed it every 3 to 5K miles. I know they put a 4 cylinder in it. I rented one on vacation and that engine was working real hard to keep it rolling down the road (Puerto Rico). I was very glad I had the six instead. Thank you so much for commenting. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Nice work...just not convinced that you check it while it's shut off. It seems it should be running in park or neutral like usual domestic units. Any follow-up info to that question?
It has been asked many times (and I can understand why). My interpretation of the vague factory procedure on this is to do it with the engine off. BTW I have done this now on two different KIA transmissions and a Hyundai (Same transmission) a total of 12 times without any problem at all on any of the transmissions. Thanks.
@@richardlloydusa nice video Richard, I'm from Indonesia and I have a 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe CRDI 2.2. I was also confused when reading the Hyundai procedure about whether or not we should check the transmission oil level with the engine running in neutral. But after watching this video, now i feel more confident that checking the oil level with the engine off is fine.
Hi man have a 2010 Mazda bt 50 need to do a transmission fluid change can you help me
Sorry but I don't have access to a 2010 Mazda bt 50 so I can't really comment. Thanks.
Hi Richard. Great video. You covered all the details. Thanks for inspiring me to change out the fluid on my 2012 Tucson. Unfortunately , I’m seeing a leak around the level plug after driving it around. I didn’t remove the level plug completely since there was a steady flow every time I added some fluid to the funnel. I drained out about 4 quarts and poured in about the same with the level plug not completely screwed in. Can i recheck the level without losing too much fluid? What could be causing this?
Yes you can recheck it. It should only trickle out with the plug removed if it is filled correctly and the car is on level ground. Perhaps you did not tighten it fully or the rubber seal that seats in the hole is damaged or dirty. You can always top up the transmission with fluid after you are done checking. The fill plug on mine was not very tight, you can get it to seat with your hands if they are not too oily or use a 3/8th ratchet. You should feel it lock in. Don't over do it with the ratchet you will destroy the plug (it's made of plastic). Thanks.
Sehr gut erklärt 👍🏽
Danke sehr.
Hi Richard thanks for this video. I’m a bit confused on the amount of fluid. A previous person asked if 1, 5L jug was enough for this and you said yes. The manual says to put about 5L and then you add extra. Do you need about 6 quarts then instead of a 1, 5L jug? For the first refill did you use about 3.5 to 4 litres of the jug before it started coming out of the level plug? Also did you use separate drain pans for this? One for old oil and one for new oil so you could re-use the run off new oil? Thanks in advance.
The torque converter holds a portion of the transmission fluid and will not be drained in this procedure that is why it takes less than the empty capacity specification to refill the transmission. This is why I don't recommend putting back the same amount you drained instead using the level port to check that you have the right amount of fluid. A certain amount of the old fluid will always be left behind but how much I can only guess at. Thank you so much for commenting and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
@@richardlloydusa thanks Richard so just the 1 5L jug should be enough for this procedure and you just recommend changing it again at the next oil change? I have a 2.0L turbo Sorento so the oil change interval is more frequent at 5k kms instead of miles. Thanks again.
I can't see it taking the whole 5L so I'm sure you will be safe with that. I recommend changing it every 15 to 20,000 miles depending on how hard you drive it. The main contaminate will be worn clutch plate material. The fluid is synthetic so it is a long lasting chemical and in the transmission it's not even close on the abuse engine oil takes.
Thank you so much for commenting and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Good job sir.
You're most welcome. I'm glad and very happy to know that I could help you. Thank you so much for watching, commenting and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
when you add new fluid in your Kia just remove the return line and start the car and the fluid will run out and it will pump the old fluid from the torque converter out. Just have someone in the car and you watch the line until the fluid comes out clean,it usually takes about 10 seconds.
Thanks.
You can mess up the valve body.like that
@@vjiglesias5815BS. This is the only way to fully flush a transmission. Doing it like in this video is a total waste of time and money. The transmission pump is working while the transmission is in park or neutral so won't damage anything..
Hi is the ATF has a code? Like the motor oil?. How to know if its compatible with my car? And also, how often did i need to change my ATF? Thanks

just to confirm: you were able to fill 3.5 liter of atf fluid and then another 700cc after. so 5 liter jug was enough for 1 dran/refill procedure. right?
Yes the one gallon jug I used was enough to do the job once. Here it is at amazon: amzn.to/1EAOXBB Thanks.
@@richardlloydusa Hi. I too own a 2016 Sorento V6 AWD. The owner's manual specifies 8.24 qts of ATF (or 7.8L) for the transaxle. If you only put in 3.5L plus another 700cc, at 4.2L it falls way short of the 7.8L requirement. What am I missing here? Is yours not AWD? That's the only thing that comes to mind: transaxle requires more ATF than the 2WD transmission...?
I changed mine the other day for the first time since purchasing the Sorento brand new...
my mechanic measured exactly what came out and then put the same amount of Valvoline MAXLIFE back in... is this okay? or should I ask him to put the extra 700cc in. Also, Should I do another drain and fill soon?
Car is shifting really smooth though
When I did this yesterday, I measured what came out and filled with the same amount. Others might disagree, but I would assume the fill level from the factory was approximately correct. That said, I still drove the vehicle for 15 minutes before parking on level ground and removing the fill level plug to see if fluid would drain out. It came out in a slow trickle, which was good enough for me. If there was zero evidence of fluid draining out, I'd add 500-700 mL as per Richard's excellent video.
good information
Thank you very much.
Your suppose to check the level with the car level and engine running in park at the correct temp.
Thank you for watching, commenting and the valuable feedback. I appreciate it greatly. All the best. 👍😀
Thanks man , saved my ass
You're most welcome. I'm glad and very happy to know that I could help you. Thank you so much for watching, commenting and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Great video sir❤️ how much amount of transmission fluid were you able to get from a 2.4 engine?
I can only comment on the V6. I'm guessing both vehicles use the same transmission but check to be sure.
Thank you so much for commenting and watching. I appreciate it greatly. Subscribe, Click The Bell and stay tuned! All the best.👍😀
Hey Rick, did the trans perform fine over time? Would love to know follow up, how long did you go before that next drain and refill?
Yes, they have. I have done this on 7 different cars now and all of the transmissions are smooth and strong. Over 50,000 miles in total with no problems. I may do a video on my 2008 Ford Escape Hybrid AWD on this too. I'm glad and very happy to know that I could help you. Thank you so much for watching, commenting and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
@@richardlloydusa do you not change your drain plug washer? KGIS states you should always change it which I'm always a fan of changing them since they're so cheap to
I reuse them as it didn't look damaged to me (a little flattened) but otherwise perfectly usable. It did not leak after I installed it but I would think after a few uses it would get flattened out as it looks like it's aluminum (a soft metal). But by all means if you wish to change them every time, I see no reason not to. Thank you for watching and commenting. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Does the xmis'n shift any differently.
Yes, it has improved and I am sure it will be even better after the next drain and fill. Thanks.
in kia chile they do not change the automatic transmission oil sorento 2016, they say that it has free maintenance, I don't know why it is so
They say it's "maintenance free" meaning that it is a sealed transmission and does not need to be serviced during the 100,000 mile warranty period. I can't comment on if this is a good thing to do but in my opinion it's good to change it on a more regular basis. Thank you so much for commenting. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Would this be the same for Kia soul 13 has well
I am not sure on the Kia Soul. I have a video on the 2011-2014 KIA Sorento here: ua-cam.com/video/YSW32LNK__0/v-deo.html If the transmission is the same one I would "speculate" that the procedure is the same. Check your owners manual for the type of fluid and quantity required. I would invest in a service manual before going ahead with any service. Thank you for watching and commenting. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
hey Richard love your videos but i have a question not about this one video but about a video you made about some fake batteries that you buy online and you said 3400 mAh is the top mAh you can get and it made me wonder because i bought 30000 lumen flash light and now i can't help but think its fake so i wanted to see whats your opinion about it its called xlightfire c15 or search 30000lumen flash light in amazon and you will find it if its fake what is the highest lumen flashlight u can get in the market and please update the batteries story is it still 3400 mAh the max you can get ? thank you
The highest capacity for an 18650 battery is the NCR18650G which clocks in at 3600mAh.A high capacity cell that is readily available is the 3500mAh LG MJ1. This is a video on changing the transmission fluid on vehicle. Please post further questions or comments on the appropriate video. Thank you very much.
Hey Richard, another great video! Thank you! I have one more question, why don't you measure the volume of drained fluid and put back the same amount of fluid, without even opening fluid level plug?
I have been asked this before and here is the deal, what if the level was incorrect to start with (you never know who serviced your vehicle before) or you had a leak? If you measured the amount drained and it was too much or too little you would be continuing the original problem. I would rather be certain by following the recommended procedure. Thanks.
I see your point, I have not thought about it )))
Case in point mine from the factory brand new was 46 ounces low!
Mains it has 4.2 quarts and i fill it with 3.7 quart and it was running great but when i add the other amount for the 4 quarts transmission start sleeping when i was coming to a stop help me please i do have a 2018 kia optima lx
@@josuegalvez1 take out a that extra fluid you put in.
Richard, on your last video of changing the fluid, you had subtitles turned on as option but on this one, there is no options for subtitles. I am deaf and it would greatly help to have subtitles to understand what you're saying. Great video by the way.
I have it set to always include the subtitles so it must have been some sort of glitch but I manually entered all the subtitles in by hand for you. I hope that helps. It took me a while and it was the first time I ever did it so I hope it turns out correctly for you. Thank you very much for watching and for your feed back. All the best to you.
I just checked the closed captioning it is working now. Thanks.
Thank you Richard. I really appreciate your efforts! Others will benefit from this as well!
You are most welcome. It was the first video I had to do this for, most are done automatically. I may do more in the future. Thanks for pointing it out. All the best.
Do these transmissions have a filter or screen to clean,change ????
They have an internal steel mess filter that the manufacturer advises should not be replaced. Thank.
Grasspro they does its metal and its not easy to change but with little bit of experience u can do it it takes time skill and u dony have to change it unless u drive for like 75000 ml
Any replaceable filter should eventually be replaced. Not hard at all. Just need to drop the pan and replace the gasket as well
Did the kid dealership tell you whether or not they change out the filter on the transmission when they do a service
The filter is a steel mesh and is internal to the transmission and would require you to dismantle the transmission to remove or replace it. They don't recommend replacing it. Thank you.
@@richardlloydusa gotcha, ty
I am worried now. I didnt know I had to change ATF!!! I am at 71+K (2014 Soren) I will take car of this next week
My 2011 kia sorento is 113,000 miles do you think is time to change it?
I certainly would. I am sure the fluid is very dirty at this point. Thank you for watching and commenting. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
For how long you drove before getting the transmission to 149?
I drove it for 10 minutes but understand it's summer in Texas but 15 should get you there in most cases. Thank you so much for commenting and watching. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Is synthetic fluid in the transmission from the factory?
I'm not sure what they use at the factory. I'm sure what ever it is, it's a good fluid but like any other vehicle fluid it will break down through use and wear. I use the Valvoline on all my vehicles which now includes a 2008 Ford Escape Hybrid AWD and it works great in all the vehicles. Thank you so much for commenting and watching. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Great video! Is this a V6 3.3l engine?
Yes, it was the powerful V6 3.3L AWD. Great vehicle and engine. Thank you so much for commenting, watching and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Hello Richard, I live in Brazil and I have a Kia Sorento 2011 2.4 petrol with automatic gearshift of 6 gears, I am in doubt about the oil exchange of the exchange. please, what is the recommended oil and what is the correct mileage for the exchange? in Brazil Kia does not recommend replacing the exchange oil. Thank you very much in advance. hug
I would recommend every 30,000 miles or approximately every 60,000 miles and use the same fluid I recommend in the video description. Thanks.
Excellent video Richard. I just changed mine (2016 Sorrento V6 with 30k, bought used). The fluid was dark. Drained about 4quarts, put a little over 4quarts back in. I plan to change again in 1000 miles. Note - Next time i plan on measuring exactly how much i drained.. wish i had done this with my recent change.
How is your Sorrento driving now
?
How many changes have you done ?
Fluid pink again ?
Iv'e done too many, 5 or 6 six and the fluid is pink. 1000 miles is a good minimum. Certainly will give the transmission a good wash and you will get some good use out of the ATF. After you get it as clean as you can (3 times should do it) stick to 15,000 mile intervals. That's what I do. Took the OCD down a notch. LOL. Oh, also don't go on replacing what you took out. You never know it could have been under-filled or over-filled before you got it. Use the level port and be sure. Thanks
@@richardlloydusa Do you plan on doing a lube change on the differential? I am planning it, soon.. thanks again for the video!
Mine is only front wheel drive so I do not have a differential. Thank you for watching and commenting. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.
no dipstick at??
No, unfortunately there is no dipstick. Thank you so much for watching and commenting. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀

Thank you very much.
Ist 4 o 6 cil?
It's a six cylinder engine. Thank you so much for commenting and watching. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
What happened to the 2014 you had? Procedure looks the same.
We upgraded to a newer 2016 model KIA Sorento SXL. The procedure is slightly different as you you have many more bolts to remove the lower engine cover and you do not have to remove the air intake duct to access the fill port but other than that it is the same procedure. One more thing the fill level port is almost impossible to access from the top of the engine. Thanks.
Thanks, My Wife has a 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe with the same powertrain. This will save me about $150 over letting the dealer do it.
You know it. I am glad I could help you save $$$$. Thanks.
