Cars Kia Rio in their qualitative indicators are often approaching the models of famous Japanese marks. Their popularity in Russia has recently grown strongly, which is clearly visible by increasing sales. Kia Rio manufacturers continue to improve this machine, correcting weak design places. Nevertheless, in Kia Rio machines there are certain nodes that are more often out of order and require repair.
Nodes of the machine that are most often broken
Among these problem places, first of all, it is necessary to note: - Correction; - cooling radiator; - fuel system; - electrical wiring and electrical equipment; - Separate parts of the body. Of course, if they say, for example, about the fuel system, it is not in mind that it is bad and is not good anywhere. We are talking about the fact that the fuel system is designed for a very defined gasoline brand and brings if the fuel is not very conditioned. The same goes for problems with electrical equipment, which sometimes does not withstand the harsh conditions of the Russian winter.
The most frequent problems and types of repair
The following is the characteristic of the damage characteristic of RIO and the basic methods of their repair.
Transmission
The main signs of the wrong gearbox work are as follows:
- slip when switching between transmissions;
- incomprehensible vibration at speed;
- jerk at a speed set;
- You can not include the necessary transmission.
If listed symptoms are seen, then you need to repair the gearbox as soon as possible. It should be borne in mind that the repair of the gearbox is a very complex event that requires a lot of time. The gearbox repair specificity requires a brigade as part of at least two employees.
Cooling radiator
Common Kia Rio disease is the rapid pollution of the radiator. The main signs of the radiator exit from the normal state are: - leak antifreeze; - fast engine overheating; - Slow cooling of the engine. During the repair of the radiator after its dismantling, it is necessary to determine damaged places. For this, the radiator is placed in water and follow the bubbles of air raising from the occurrence of the flow. If the radiator has slots or holes, then it must be replaced with a new one. However, if certain skills exist, a damaged radiator can be tried to fix it with their own hands. To do this, you can try to secure weaknesses, apply a special paste (cold welding), or pour into the radiator of stop reagents. At best, on a fixed radiator, you can ride several years, but mostly it begins to leak again very quickly and in an inconvenient time. Therefore, the best way to repair the radiator is its replacement new.
Fuel system
The main sign of the fuel system malfunction is the leakage of gasoline from the fuel tank. The main reasons for the appearance of the puddle of gasoline is damage to the gas tank or bulk pipe. You can not drive on a car with such faults. Damaged fuel tank or bulk tube are subject to immediately replacing.
Wiring and electrical equipment
As in most cars, the working voltage of the minus grounding of the electrical equipment of the car KIA Rio car is 12 volts. Such stress is not very dangerous for life, but with a short circuit, it can lead to failure, many electrical appliances and even to fire. Operation of electrical equipment in Russian conditions can deliver quite a lot of unpleasant moments. In this regard, it is necessary to regularly check the stability of insulation and fastening of electrical wires. It is necessary to ensure that the wires do not disappear and do not touch each other.
The electrical system of the car Kia Rio is reliably protected from overloads with special fuses. They are placed in two panels, one of which is located near the driver's seat, and the other in the engine compartment. At the failure of lamps, light bulbs, sensors and any other equipment, it is quite often enough to find the appropriate fuse and replace it with a new one. To carry out such a replacement in a hundred, you can not apply.
The main thing is not to confuse standard fuses, with the main fuses for high current.
Body problems
Corrosion of Kia Rio body, arises in the conditions of our climate quite often. Like any other cars on the body of Kia Rio, the appearance of various scratches, chips, dents, violation of the geometry of body parts, and the like. In fact, poor body repair is under the power of many motorists. But the quality repair in which the geometry is fully restored and the surface of the damaged parts of the body to the factory state can only be performed by experienced masters on modern high-tech equipment.
In general, Kia Rio has an excellent paintwork, as well as perfectly performed anti-corrosion processing. A relatively weak point here is observed sometimes accumulating moisture in the trunk and in connection with this development of local corrosion. Therefore, first of all, it is necessary to carefully follow these weak nodes and on time. But still the main problem of Kia Rio, like any other car, is the emergence of mechanical damage associated with accidents or bad roads. Local or integrated repair is used to eliminate body damage. With local repairs, the initial body shape is restored without replacing the new part. In comprehensive repair, a part or parts of the body and the replacement of them are new. Also, the repair of the body almost always includes paintwork, which are performed using special paint sprayers of drying chambers.
All types of repair of cars Kia Rio is best carried out in specialized technical centers of KIA dealers.
Since we need a third-generation machine, the year of production of the car will be no later than 2015. And due to the fact that we will attach very rich people, we will not watch the cars of the first years of release (2011 and 2012). I note that we do this consciously: the earliest cars had some drawbacks, which later tried to get rid of. For example, recall a typical first car problem: a creaking steering shaft with a fixed-type cardan hinge. At first it was changed under warranty, then the hinge was completely replaced with sliding. Yes, and some elements of the interior decoration of the early Rio delight do not cause, why now many of their salons resemble a taxi salon.
We will not pick up motor. There are only two of them, and both more resemble plans for Friday night, than something serious from the world of internal combustion. We are satisfied with 1,4-liter G4FA, and it seems like a "big" 1.6-liter G4FD. Both are not bad, and what will have to look at them - see below.
We can completely afford the car with automatic transmission, especially since neither old four-step A4AF3, nor newest "six-speed" A6GF1 questions in the first one and a half hundred thousand kilometers of mileage do not cause. Although, of course, it is important here how they were exploited and maintained, especially the second box, more demanding on the purity of the oil.
We are looking for cars as usual - on ad sites. There are many such cars, so there will be no problems here.
Problems will begin later when it will be necessary to make a compromise: there are no ideal cars anyway, so something will have to come to commend. For example, here is the first car. First because of the atypical big run (yes, thanks to the junction in the people of the Russian smelling, we were all accustomed to the fact that from 5 years and up to 20 mileage in the ads around and about 100 thousand kilometers) I did not want to watch, but then everything -Taki looked. Oddly enough, it turned out to be a very good option that once again confirms the thesis that against the background of optimized runs and grandmother's fairy tales from Outbid can sometimes find an honest car for "small" money.
But cheap!
The most attractive thing in this car is its price. It costs only 405 thousand, so almost a hundred thousand can be put on bringing it into a sense after purchase (if there is such a desire). True, he has the simplest equipment, a manual transmission and a 1.4 liter engine. Yes, and the big mileage - 186 thousand kilometers. Let's see if there is a sense in such a purchase.
Unfortunately, LKP KIA is not the strongest side of the manufacturer. But in our particular case, at least I am pleased with the factory painting. In general, the layer thickness should not exceed 130 μm, although sometimes there are cars with a double factory color (in this case, almost a double LCP layer will be on all body parts and door openings) or with repainted from the dealer with separate parts. The latter is the reason to check the car for participation in the accident. Stories from repainting details due to damage during transportation, though there are, but it is rather an accident than everyday practice. We have a thickness everywhere approximately the same, from 115 to 130 microns, so there are no reasons for the soldier. True, there is a small chip on the front wing. It will need to be removed immediately: rust chips on "Koreans" quickly. But in general, all LCP defects are minor and obtained exclusively during operation.
But let's open the doors and see the interior.
Here the mileage is visible in all its glory. Not too high quality plastic (if more precisely - just bad plastic) scratched very easily, and in our car it looks already very much terrible. Door knobs and plastic front panel near glove box looks creepy. But what to demand from a budget machine with mileage under 200 thousand? On a general background there is a steering wheel. Perhaps he was transferred under warranty - it was delivered quickly, and the warranty engineers of KIA did not refuse to eliminate the defect.
Seats also look not very fresh. They do not only have a fever, but also noticeable deformation. In general, the salon Kia Rio will not give to hide the real mileage. I do not know, however, it is good or still bad.

Now open the hood. There are no complaints. The motor compartment is clean and creates the impression that they cared for the car better than the girlfriend in the candidate-bought relationship. Well, or washed to our arrival.
Yes, and the motor sounds good, no criminal sounds have succeeded. But this is what is seen by the unarmed look. If we really wanted to buy this car, we would arma your eyes with an endoscope. The fact is that Koreans love to make weak catalysts that are already starting to crumble well. Ceramic crumb enters the inlet and quickly eats a piston group. So to examine the walls of cylinders at Kia with mileage would not be completely superfluous. However, on this mileage you can already be afraid of both the rings, although compared with the repair of the cylinder block, this is not such a global problem.
Well, do not forget that on a lot of run (it is impossible to say, on what exactly, but approximately, say, from 300 thousand) it will be possible to expect a real "capitals", especially if the catalyst did not change on time or did not notice the tension of the chain. And the overhaul of the motor with the aluminum unit - the procedure is quite expensive, especially by the standards of budget vehicles. And sorry: the rest of the car was very good and quite adequate in value. Well, let's try to look for something today: the money is not a problem, 500 thousand is.
Minotaurus Labyrinth
Fucks typically Russian craving for sedans and look at the car in the body of the hatchback. Yes, it is not as prestigious as a sedan (no one may doubt that Rio Sedan is prestigious), but practical. In addition, they were not seen in a taxi. True, there are sometimes in Crachhering ... But the car suits us: 2014, it costs only 470 thousand. Mileage, however, is also rather big - 90 thousand, but still it is two times less than that of the previous version.
Even dismissed that something was wrong with the car. I would generally advise not to be afraid of my feelings: if it seems that the car is a curve, it is probably such. We cannot assess the correctness of the geometry of the body, but some differences in the gaps, painting and some other details can notice on the subconscious level. I do not insist on the truth of these words, but I advise you to listen to them.
So, before us is a black handsome man. True, some kind of uneven. Side lighting allows you to carefully look at shagreen. On the front left wing, it differs from shagged on the driver's door. Just in case we check the thickness gauge. There is already more than 400 microns, and on the right front wing, the LCP thickness reaches 544 microns. Here is clearly there is a twin. Taking into account the fact that the front bumper stands unevenly, and all the gaps between it and wings are curves, it can be assumed that the youth of this car was hard. But it is unlikely that it is worth talking about a strong frontal strike: the headlights are relatives, no one has changed radiators. Although the troubles do not end.
We notice that the expansion tank is empty. This is definitely bad: maybe the motor managed to overheat, and maybe the antifreeze is somewhere. Well, if it flows to the ground, and not into the oil. However, if he went to the oil, we would notice this on the lid of the oil-tapping neck.
The oil level in the gur tank is also at a minimum. And this is also not entirely correct.
And another small surprise is completely suddenly found in ... wiring. From the rechargeable battery terminal in an unknown direction, another (abnormal) power cable is departed.
Where would he go? I think the answer is obvious: there should be a subwoofer. Therefore, we open the trunk, we raise the flooring of the floor and we see another bunch of removed wires ("Sab" from here the owner, apparently dragged).
What's bad about it? Honestly, truly responsible owners among those who put such music in the car (even a qualitative), a little. Yes, and the level of liquids is simply shouting about it. "Tytz-Tynz" in the trunk is, of course, cool, but the normal level of antifreeze is much more important (although the minimum standing at the mark is also far from the sentence). Another significant minus is an increased load on the generator. And finally, not all the installers of music (as well as alarms) can do it well. Often, after their intervention, the electrical circuit of the car turns into a minotaur's labyrinth, according to which in the event of a breakdown will wander the sad and evil electrician.
And then the rubber seal of wiring from the engine compartment did not even bother to put in place.
In addition, on the body there are "not cured" chips, which are about to begin to rust, the back seat is cigarette, and everything that can be riddled. Completing the picture bunting windshield.

In short, this is definitely not our option.
Parking "For rumor"
The most interesting car is just our maximum amount - 500 thousand. What do we offer?
First, this car has 1.6 liter engine. Secondly, automatic transmission (even if four-step, but quite reliable - the Heritage of Mitsubishi). Well, thirdly - mileage a little more than 30 thousand kilometers. Yes, yes, the car of 2013. Maybe mileage twisted? First, let's see the documents. The owner of the car was one, and the service book is filled with exemplary. Accurate every year she was chased to the dealer to the dealer, but more leads to the delight of the interval between that in kilometers: in the first year there were only five thousand kilometers on the car, and some subsequent could not drive these five. Running forward, I will note that this mileage can only confirm this mileage: even the fabric of the seats and the feet of the steering wheel look new. Luck? Nearly.
The whole picture spoils poor quality LCP, multiplied by the features of driving the owner of the car. He obviously parked on a rumor: all body elements with traces of pulp. Here and the doors opened cars in the parking lot on the parking lot, and they were driving on the borders, and flew into the drifts to the crunch of bumpers.

Maybe even the roof of the whole? But no ... Here hello handle Koreans: rust spoke on the roof on the top edge of the windshield.

Unfortunately, this is a weak point of Rio, and even if you do not ride on the highway and not "catch" chips from pebbles, the glass edge rust quickly. There are not always looking, and in vain. Two small spots may only be the beginning of great corrosion. But here, at least there are no repainted elements, which could be delighted if there were no number of traces of contacts on them. Maybe something already better to paint.
Under the hood here did not look long. There are no complaints about the operation of the motor, all fluids are positioned in the level, the traces of the accident found also failed. But a lot of dirt.
I do not even know if it is possible to buy this car. Technically, it is most likely good (just can only be said to after at least after computer diagnostics and inspection on the lift), but numerous injuries obtained due to wine apparently not a very experienced driver, somehow it is necessary to treat. And urgently. But there are so many of them that everything will have to paint - well, or at least all four doors and front wings (let's say scratches on plastic body kit - these are small). It will be necessary to clean the rust on the edge of the windshield (which, by the way, will also have to be replaced due to cracks). The amount of investments will be significant that it will not be happy even taking into account the small mileage.
Of course, it is possible to bargain, but Rio is on sale a lot, so if the seller's greed is a stronger LCP, it is better to look for another car.
Combo from dealer
We decided to look at another option from the official dealer who sells "BESheek". It cost 516 thousand rubles, but it was very curious that the official would be offered. Moreover, we were already ready to go out a bit for the price framework, but find an uncompromising option.
According to the photo, a good option, mileage - 86 thousand kilometers, almost maximum equipment. We are going.
So, what does the dealer offer for us? And the dealer invites us to play the game "Guess what happened to the car." And we decide to take the rules of the game. Especially here everything is so obvious that even the "kettle" can understand.
If you briefly, then this car will not buy even self-respecting dull. This is the case when the car does not seem to be curves, but actually a curve. What is just not closing the driver's door. Against this background, a large number of scratches, chips and multicolored elements simply fade.
We open the hood and do not even be surprised ... Here is a complete set, which simply shouts about the frontal collision: the mint cup of the shock absorber, the interrupted bodies of the battery, the tip of the spar, the spar tip, smeared by the sealant. In theory, it should have been cut and replaced. But, apparently, they decided not to bother and just blind from what was.

It seems that the blow was such a force that the engine shifted to the engine shield on which traces remained.
Well, of course, looking into the salon, they saw a "shooting" airbag. Thank you, we do not need such "good".
For the sake of interest, they decided to still check the car in the bases, as the condition of the cabin (in particular, heated to almost an arm of the steering wheel) and the body was transparently hinted on a strongly twisted mileage and generally use the car as a taxi. And here we were not mistaken. The car was really listed in the company that provided passenger transport services. This is not surprising - these models are also in white, often found in a taxi. Only prices for such cars are in a normal state by an average of 100 thousand cheaper.
Kia Rio Third Generation - the car is not capricious. But this does not mean that she has no weak points. First of all, probably, you need to look at the body (I think it's all already understood). But this is not all.
You can't forget about the motor too. Choosing Kia (and Hyundai) with mileage, you need at least to get to the service and check the compression and drive timing. After 100,000 mileage kilometers, you can find machines with stretched chains, so checking the phases is superfluous. Especially if when you start a motor, there are some little fastening sounds.
If the mileage has passed the hundredsmaking mark, then you need to check the condition of the catalyst, and at the same time - lambda sensors and the entire release. True, it may not be done independently. And here Automama. Maybe, for this, we use the most modern tools that our partners have specialized hundred. After our diagnosis, buyers may not be afraid of a Minotaur labyrinth nor parking to an inexperienced owner, nor a combo from the dealer.

Kia. Rio) is one of the smallest cars in the Kia Motors line. In addition, it is very economical, but, thanks to low cost, is one of the most interesting options among city cars in the secondary market. But, as they say, "Not all the gold, which shines", so, today we will try to find out what flaws were identified during the operation of Kia Rio 2, and to pay attention to when buying this car in the used version.
A bit of history:
For the first time, Kia Rio debuted at the Geneva Auto Show in 2000. The car refers to the class "B" and was produced in two types of body - sedan and hatchback. This model is much larger than its predecessor (Kia Avell) and, in fact, is an analogue of Hyundai accent. In 2005, Kia Rio 2 was presented to the existence of the general public, this version was different from the predecessor to a more modern body and salon design. In addition to external and internal changes, technical refinements were also. For example, two gasoline engines added in the amount of 100 cubes. The car was built on a completely new platform, which was used not only kia, but also Hyundai.
Like the previous generation of Kia Rio 2 is available only in two types of body - sedan and hatchback. In 2009, a restyling car was held, which was held under the guidance of the famous German designer Peter Schraira, who decides the facade of the model, popular now, "a tiger smile". In January 2011, KIA presents sketches of the third generation of the model, and in March of the same year, an official premiere took place at the Geneva Auto Show. The novelty was built on one platform with Hyundai i20 and.
Weak places Kia Rio 2 with mileage
Paintings are quite subtle, due to this, scratches and chips appear in the first years of operation of the car. Despite this, the body is well opposed to the onslaught of red-haired disease, but still, if you do not follow the cosmetic state of the body, it will not be possible to avoid corrosion (the body begins to bloom in the places of chips). Also, corrosion may appear on the doors in the contact places of doors with the seal, the front of the hood and at the junction of the bumper with the car body.
Engines
In the CIS KIA Rio 2 was represented only with gasoline force aggregates - 1.4 (97 hp), 1.6 (112 hp). Also, in the secondary market you can meet the diesel versions of the car with a motor 1.5 (110 hp) imported from Europe. If we talk about the reliability of the power units in general, then there were no serious disadvantages of these engines. Floating speeds are considered the most common problems and the embarrassing engine. Most owners, encountered with these problems, begin to change candles, high-voltage wires, wash the nozzles, but, as a rule, it does not give any effect, since the reason for this ailment lies in the software failure in the engine control unit (flashing is required). It is worth noting that on some copies, a new firmware may not approach the old control unit, in such cases the owners had to change the control unit.
Many critics got the original battery, the fact is that it is very weak and with the arrival of winter its power lacked to start the engine. The problem is solved by replacing the battery to more powerful. Sometimes, the reason that the car does not start in a strong frost, is not a battery, but a frozen starter. Each one, be sure to check the coolant level, the fact is that the radiator is not durable and, with time, begins to give leaks. If you do not follow this, the engine can get a heat blow, which, as a rule, leads to serious consequences. In the graduate manifold the corrugation is installed, which connects the collector with the resonator. The problem is that it is short enough, and the air penetrated into it confuses the oxygen sensor. When the problem occurs, the fuel consumption increases, and the "Check Engine" indicator lights up on the dashboard. Kia Rio 2 owners with Motor 1.6 most often complain about a small resource of ignition coils.
Transmission
Kia Rio 2 was completed by two types of transmission - five-speed mechanics and a four-stage automatic transmission. There are practically no complaints to the mechanics. In rare cases, after 100,000 km, the owners had to change the glands of the primary shaft. And, here, the clutch fails early enough, there were cases when it had to be changed after 30,000 km, but such cases were rare, mainly the clutch runs 50-80 thousand km. In automatic transmission, as in the mechanics, there were no serious shortcomings. This gearbox is demanding of the quality of service, and if you neglect these requirements, then, over time, the box will begin to "kick" when shifting gear. When choosing a car with automatic transmission, it is necessary to take into account the feature of its work - at the beginning of the movement of the car has a good overclocking dynamics, but, with an increase in speed, it goes out (on a car with mechanics, the dynamics is not so sensible).
Weak places of chassis Kia Rio 2
The car is equipped with a semi-dependent suspension: in front - MacPherson, rear - beam. The most criticism of Kia Rio 2 was received for the stiffness of the suspension, but it is worth noting that thanks to such settings, the car is not bad. Many owners managed to make the car more comfortable after replacing the original shock absorbers to softer. If we talk about the reliability of the chassis, then, in general, it can be called reliable, even despite the fact that some of its elements have a smaller resource than competitors. Traditionally, for most modern cars, racks and stabilizer bushings are considered consumables and change every 20-30 thousand km. Also, one of the weak points is a swivel fist, it is made of soft metal and bends in the area of \u200b\u200battachment of the shock absorber, even with a slight contact with a curb or not a neat pass through a lying policeman.
In the rear of the car, after 40000 km, the anthers or the shock absorber chipper may begin, and closer to 60000 km rear shock absorbers can start leak. Hub bearings, steering tips and ball supports, with careful operation, go to 80,000 km. Front shock absorbers, support bearings and steering thrust are able to serve 120-150 thousand km. Saylent blocks and levers, in most cases, live more than 150,000 km. The steering mechanism is prone to stacks when driving, the problem helps the problem helps the abundant lubricant of slotted connections or replacing plastic rail sleeves (as a rule, the first sleeve is broken). Otherwise, there is no complaints about the resource for the steering parts and the brake system.
Salon
Salon Kia Rio 2 is not highlighted by exquisite finishing materials and interesting design solutions, everything is very simple and cheap. The car and silence in the cabin, extraneous sounds, the silences, sneakers, knocks and sysk are an integral attribute of the cabin. In cars in the body, the hatchback, over time, the fastenings of the rear sofa are loosened, because of the rear of the cabin, the roar is coming, which many owners are mistaken for malfunctions in the suspension. From the deficiencies in the electrics, you can allocate malfunctions in the climate control unit. The problem is unpleasant in that it has a floating character, for example, on the road the system does not work, and it is only necessary to get to the service and the problem disappears by itself. Also, it is worth noting a small resource of windows control buttons, glass heating, etc.
Outcome:
Kia Rio 2 has proven himself a reliable and unpretentious car. If we talk about what kind of assembly (Russia or Korea) is better to give preference, then it should be noted that they differ little from each other, and have almost the same problems, and, with due service, the ownership of the car will be quite budget.
If you are the owner of this car model, please describe the problems that you have to face during the operation of the car. Perhaps it is your feedback that will help readers of our site when choosing a car.
Respect, editors Car auto
Children's sores Kia Rio (2011 - 2015, Restyling 2015 - 2017) Sedan.
A year after a loud debut, no less successful Kia Rio is released into the light, structurally very similar to the elder brother. He is going on the same factory in St. Petersburg, where and "Hyundai Solaris".
You have to choose from two power plants (collected in China, but no complaints do not cause complaints and reliability, unfortunately not "capital", resource on official data is 180000 km, but the engine easily runs 300,000 km): 1.4 (107 hp ) and 1.6 (123 hp) and 4 options for gearboxes (2-way automatic, 2-mechanical).
In truth, these two vehicles are distinguished by body performance, grades and their prices. Distinctive features of these competitors' relatives are vividly noticeable in equipment. If the Solaris can be collected as a constructor, then with Rio (the packages of options are dominated) such a "trick" will not pass. At the exit of the Solaris, you will be released a little cheaper with equal options, although at the start of the sales there was a reverse effect, Rio cost more, but it was better equipped (air conditioning, mirror bumper in color - basic equipment).
Time goes and marketers constantly have to change something. But the interior of Rio looks more stringent, expensive (in the top configuration of Torpeda, she is covered with ecocuses), above tactile sensations (ergonomics), and the body has a more solid design.
Children's disease Kia Rio 3 or what to pay attention to when buying.
Rio and Solaris share not only the platform, but also the engine with transmissions, I wrote about the "sores" of these aggregates in the past review. In the same article, I tried to find "Diseases" by Kiya Rio.
| Boycles | Solutions |
|
Transmission |
|
| the automatic transmission selector can arbitrarily proceed with D to mode to 3rd transmission | the dealer eliminated this disease for free, you need to clean the hole under the stem - selector |
| the skin is erased on the steering wheel and the pen with 20,000 thousand km | according to - eliminated without limitation |
| skyrp Pedal Gaza | removal of the plastic limiter and abundant lubricant of the pedal mechanism |
| moisture (ice) in the luggage compartment and spare wheel niche | eliminated under warranty, or cutting holes in the side trimming of the trunk for ventilation |
| round the rear shelf | noise insulation shelves |
| weak plastic mudguards | install non-original rubber, such as Nordplast |
| melting license plate plaffers | put diodes with a base T10 |
As you might notice the differences mostly body, see the way it is. Each for itself will choose the exterior that he is more sympathetic. It seems to me that it is necessary to choose here, ride in one, then in another car, where there will be "like at home" - that and choose. If we talk about the first Rio issues, it has already been made with the initial refinements of the suspension (this is the most serious "sore" Solaris 2010). About the automatic transmission wrote for a diversity of recall, the same problem with "stock" is found on solaris.
I will be glad your additions and comments. The main thing is not to forget, all "childhood diseases" can not meet on one car. But before buying it is better to make the diagnosis of all "sores", it will help save your money.
What will be for the minimum price:1.4 Mechanics (107 hp), front airbags, air conditioning, on-board computer, audio preparation (4 columns), front electric windows.
Reviews of Kia Rio (Sedan, Hatchback):
Appearance:
- lovely, harmonious, slightly sporty aggressiveness give the air intake grille and framed by black headlights
In the cabin:
- Cute and informative dashboard
- the stove dries cool, I don't even turn on the full
- plastic hard, easily scratched and quickly starts growing
- Crickets in the dashboard and rear, somewhere in the trunk area
- air conditioning does not always cope with its tasks if the car is in the sun
- Behind the place for passengers, whether there is, or not. If the driver is tall above the sitting dog, then there will be 10-15 centimeters behind him.
- Closed, in front "crushes" the upper edge of the windshield, rear - the ceiling. Here Kia Rio is minus.
- The problem with heating seats: it is stepless, warmed up - it is necessary to turn off, otherwise you roaring
- 500 liters in such a baby, 4 wheels R16 fall without problems and there is still a place.
- if you fold the seats, and so a rather trunk becomes a hefty - 1400 liters. 140 cm brought a bath, I drove the sofa to the kitchen, you can't tell me outside that it gets
Paintwork:
- Many people write that the Koreans have a weak place - paintwork. It is so, and varnish, and the paint is very thin, the church often happens to the soil. Especially often chips arise on the front bumper, hood and wings. Small, millimeter-two - but a lot
Controllability:
- on the highway goes well, turns easy and predictably
- In turns, the steering wheel boldly - the control is quite sharp
- a niceble power steering wheel: when you park spinning easily, and at speed the steering wheel is poured in a weight smoothly as it should be to feel the control over the road.
- In the slit in traffic jams great
Soft progress:
- The suspension is harsh, they do not fly through the rails - the teeth are knocking
- very tough suspension, every smell feel booty
Life:
- on the mechanics, yes empty - from the traffic light is riding great
- The dynamics on the machine is so-so
Transmission:
- I like it easy and clearly switched manual box
- automatic transmission. It seemed a stupid, on the highway under overtakers, I put on gas - we are going only a second in one and a half - something much
- Slow automatic transmission and sometimes pulls when switching
Brakes:
- When first braking after the night parking - something slows down so much
Noise insulation:
- Where is this noble insulation? No her, everything is heard, as if the windows are open
- Due to the lack of sound insulation in the city normally ride 60-80 km / h, along the highway 100-120. Further the motor is how much, the road rattles, a little scary even
Reliability:
- the car showed itself quite reliable, suddenly and suddenly did not get up
- Broke in two and a half years only the castle of the trunk
- For forty-seven thousand, two light bulbs burned out: fog and illumination of the room. And everything, the service went only on
- Closer to 100,000 mileage, the hydrocompensators begin to knock - this is the disease Kia Rio
Patency:
- as usual on such machines, the clearance is small (in the rustic road you can catch protection), it is not convenient to parken up everywhere, several times the thresholds
- Small-small clearance - in winter you will sit in any snowdrift, and pull you no less than a jeep
Cost:
- inexpensive in service, if serviced on a decent service, where the masters do not tend to plant money
- for repair and maintenance Kia Rio, spend not much more than on VAZ 2112
- with spare parts for problems not the slightest, in the online store, non-original consumables are approximately like on Zhiguli
- Eats 92 gasoline, in the city with non-vertical traffic jams, but with air conditioning - 9 liters, on the highway without kondeya 5 l, with it under 7
- with full loading, fuel consumption is great for small, in general, the machines: in the city - up to 12 liters per 100 km. More about the flow rate of Kia Rio -
In Frost:
- before -30 when parking on the street starts from the first turn
Other details:
- USB entrance is a cool thing and is convenient. Music from flash drive is perfect, no brakes
- Bibikalka cheerful, loud, all around reacting correctly
- Sell \u200b\u200beasily, in price loses little
