2014 Kia Cadenza Service and Repair Manual

Kia offered the 2014 Cadenza with a single V6 across three trim levels, and this factory service and repair manual is keyed to that exact combination — the specifications and sequences it gives are the ones Kia issued for the 2014 model year, not close-enough figures carried over from another year of the sedan.

Engines covered

• 3.3L V6 — DOHC, naturally aspirated, gasoline

Body styles covered

• 4-door sedan

Trims covered

• Base
• Limited
• Premium

Known issues on the 2014 Cadenza. Two recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first is part of a wide Kia campaign spanning many models, 2014-2016 Cadenza included, and covers the hydraulic antilock and traction control brake system; per the filing, an engine compartment fire while parked or driving can increase the risk of injury. The second covers the front windshield, which during manufacturing may not have been properly bonded to the vehicle, allowing it to detach — a front windshield that detaches can increase the risk of a crash or injury. Owners have filed 146 complaints for the year and Kia has issued 99 technical service bulletins. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.

Whether you are tracing a fault through the antilock brake system, replacing and bonding glass, or simply keeping the 3.3L V6 on its service schedule, this manual holds Kia's own procedure and the correct specification for your 2014 Cadenza.
