About the Kia Optima

We list the Optima across three generations. The MG (2006 to 2010) used 2.4-liter four-cylinder and 2.7-liter V6 engines. The TF (2011 to 2015) brought the 2.4 GDI, the 2.0-liter turbo and the first Optima Hybrid. The JF (2016 to 2020) added a 1.6 turbo with a 7-speed dual-clutch, and a plug-in hybrid.

About the 2018 Kia Optima

Your 2018 Kia Optima is from the fourth-generation Optima (JF), which covers model years 2016–2020. Most procedures are shared with the other years of this generation, but engines, options and wiring changed from year to year, so the manual is made for the 2018 model year.

Check the model year on your VIN: on a 2018 vehicle the 10th character of the 17-digit VIN is “J”. Vehicles built for North America always carry the model year in that position; on some European or Australian vehicles it may be left unused, so in that case go by the registration papers or the build plate.

At about 8 years old, a 2018 vehicle is usually past its basic warranty. Typical jobs at this age are brakes, suspension parts, fluids, the 12V battery and diagnosing sensor faults with the factory wiring diagrams.

Same generation: 2016 Kia Optima, 2017 Kia Optima, 2019 Kia Optima, 2020 Kia Optima.

All Kia Optima model years: 2004 · 2005 · 2006 · 2007 · 2008 · 2009 · 2010 · 2011 · 2012 · 2013 · 2014 · 2015 · 2016 · 2017 · 2018 · 2019 · 2020
