How many spark plugs are in a Kia Sorento?

I’m gonna try to do some work on my Sorento at home, and I’m feeling pretty good about getting under the hood. I just want to make sure I have enough materials to get started. How many spark plugs do I need for my Kia Sorento?

You’ll save a pretty penny by working on your
Kia Sorento
at home, but the number of spark plugs in your Kia Sorento will depend on the type of engine it has.
You only need one spark plug per engine cylinder in your Kia Sorento. New versions of the Sorento are only available with a four-cylinder engine—meaning you’ll only need four spark plugs. However,
Sorento trims with a V6
were offered up until 2020. These Sorentos would need six spark plugs.
The cost to buy
replacement spark plugs
for a Kia Sorento typically ranges from $140 to $175, but that’s still cheaper than paying a mechanic for the additional labor. And good on you for paying attention to your Kia’s
maintenance schedule
—a tune-up now could save you from expensive
car repairs
in the future!
