Video tutorial

If you hear a noise coming from the front wheel that increases especially in corners, the bearing at the centre of the hub is likely damaged: to replace it, you must remove the wheel hub itself and then use a press for the extraction and insertion of the bearing; lift the vehicle on suitable axle stands and remove the front wheel; take off the retaining nut of the driveshaft and the brake caliper complete with bracket; then remove the speed sensor and finish removing the ball joint of the suspension arm and the bolts securing the shock absorber to the hub support.

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.
