2025 Kia Seltos Service and Repair Manual

Kia's 2025 Seltos lineup runs from the LX through S, EX and X-Line to the SX, and it comes with two very different engines: a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated four with an intelligent variable transmission, and a 1.6-liter turbocharged four with an eight-speed dual-clutch gearbox. Because timing, fluid capacities and transmission service differ completely between those two drivetrains, this factory service and repair manual is tied to the 2025 model year and its engine, with the procedures, specifications, torque values, wiring diagrams, diagnostics and maintenance schedules Kia set for each.
