Video tutorial

This type of pulley transmits the rotational motion produced by the crankshaft to secondary components. It is usually made of cast iron, and the presence of rubber elements allows it to dampen engine vibrations.

To replace it, loosen the bolts of the front wheel; then lift the vehicle with a hydraulic jack and place safety stands underneath. Remove the bolts and take off the wheel and the side plastic cover; then unscrew the bolts and remove the cover.

At this point, you have access to the damper pulley. Using a 15 mm spanner, loosen the tensioner and remove the auxiliary belt; now unscrew the 4 T50 Torx screws and remove the pulley.

Fit the new pulley, aligning the male and female holes. Reposition the tensioner and install the belt.

Reassemble the parts in reverse order.

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.
