If you notice that the braking of the rear wheels has become inefficient and especially that the handbrake lever has a long travel, it means the rear brake shoes are worn. To replace them, lift the vehicle on a ramp, remove the rear wheel, take off the cap at the centre of the hub, and unscrew the underlying nut to remove the drum.

At this point, disconnect the retaining springs of the shoes and the handbrake cable to remove them from their housing. Clean the shoe housing thoroughly, ensuring that the activation cylinder does not leak oil. Transfer the springs to the new shoes and secure them to the hub support.

It is also advisable to lightly sand the inside of the drum before reinstalling it.

How to Reset the Tyre Pressure Warning Light on a Kia Rio?

The tyre pressure warning light displayed on the instrument cluster of the Kia Rio can be reset by inflating the tyres until they reach the recommended pressure value: this value is indicated on the sticker affixed to the driver's door pillar. Once all tyres have been inflated to the recommended pressure, turn on the ignition to check that the light has disappeared: if it is still present, it may be necessary to drive for a few miles, allowing the sensors to work and thus turning off the light.
