The work mentioned above involves a type of intervention that certainly lasts more than a few minutes and is usually necessary due to excessive play in the lever, caused by the wear of bushings or other mechanical components, as well as difficulties in engaging gears.

The tutorial here helps us get an idea of how to do the work: As you can see, first of all, you need to remove the two torx screws at the base of the plastic cover of the lever, grabbing it and pulling it upwards.

This way we access the mechanism under the aforementioned lever and act on the metal locking stops, as shown, thus being able to release and remove it.

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.
