What the manual does not print
The 2023 Kia Sorento owner's manual does not list wipers, battery and filters sizes; for the battery, read the label on the battery fitted to the car, then check the size against the BCI group chart; for wipers, measure each blade end to end and buy the nearest whole-inch size.
16 positions are listed as LED in this manual. LED lamps have no separate replacement bulb; the lamp assembly is replaced.
Buying the parts for a 2023 Sorento
- Small bulbs: this manual names 6 replaceable bulb positions. Wedge bulbs such as W5W and 194 differ from twist-socket bulbs such as 7443 or 3157, so match the full number, including suffixes like NA (amber).
- Oil: Smartstream G2.5 GDi: Full synthetic SAE 0W-20, API SN PLUS/SP or ILSAC GF-6; Smartstream G2.5 T-GDi: Full synthetic SAE 0W-30, API SN PLUS/SP or ILSAC GF-6. Use the grade printed for your engine if the manual lists more than one.
